Okay, I’m really disappointed to hear that Survivor may or may not be shown.

I wonder if Networks are aware that some areas don’t even have digital let alone the new channels they are talking about. I had to disconect the set top box to receive just the normal channels let alone HD/digital etc, and were flat out getting a decent reception either.

So much for Channel 9 showing Survivor: Gabon last summer as it promised. It’s 6 months later now and still nothing despite “being important” to them. We’ll probably have seen Samoa before Gabon is even shown on pathetic Channel 9. Really hoping that season 20 is All-Stars, given that it’s being filmed back to back in Samoa.

This is the worst news I’ve ever read. These two junkie and jokes of shows coming back to FTA TV. Pi**’em off for good.

I loved the new Survivor – Tocantins, I recently watched the latest series, in the words of Molly… do yourself a favour, and watch it. It will have you hooked in the first 10 minutes. Amazing how you never get tired of this show. Survivor is the best, chuck out the rest.

Thanks very much David for following through on these favourites of ours.

As per Andrew, I have faith in seeing the TAR on 7 but not with 9 & Survivor.

Ditto on Lewis’ comments.

I have the faith that 7 will show the Amazing Race, yes. It was July or after Olympics last year when they put it on.

As for 9, I have no faith at all as to when they will show anything. And no doubt Survivor is “in the mix” with 20 other shows they have the right to and are not airing or are seasons behind – none of which will ever be seen until 20-1, 2.5 men, etc stop rating well enough to justify the overload and bombardment of repeats just because they are cheap to air. All of their shows not yet aired or axed are definitely enough to fill a new channel prime time, it will be very disappointing if the new channel becomes nothing more than more of the same, with none of these shows getting a look in.

@PH: I ‘really want to watch these TV shows’, but I haven’t seen them yet. I can’t afford sufficient internet speed/size to be able to download TV shows. Not everyone has acceess to the internet to find their TV.

@Casey: Ratings may have been on the decline, but when Nine showed Micronesia late last year at 10.30 on a Tuesday, it pulled 550,000+ per episode. Have a look at what the current crop of 10.30 shows are getting. And keep in mind that when Micronesia was finally aired in Aus, it was 9 months old.

Thanks David!

If Flash Forward doesn’t start til September, why on earth are ch 7 promoting it now? It is that ” What did you see?”

Got tired waiting. Already watched TAR14, and it’s one of the best yet.

I expect Bones to move to 8.30 Wednesdays once Criminal Minds finishes in 4 weeks, as DWTS is taking over the Sunday slot. Amazing Race is probably headed for Thursdays 9.30pm

Maybe the newtorks are purposely keeping it on the shelf, so viewers will miss them heaps, and then when it comes back, they will watch it. This is smart, but could backfire, as you can just download them off the internet.
