How come Flashpoint didn’t do well in Australia the first time around?

Right now we’re in the third season and our ratings have been climbing episode by episode. Unlike Australians, it’s hard to get Canadians to watch homegrown content here.

I have seen the first 9 episodes of Survivor Samoa as it aires in the US & its one of the best series I have seen. I am glad ch9 has given it a go for once.

There is lots of cricket scheduled on Sundays and Tuesdays, hence the easily changed schedules. Not good news for Survivor though.

ER at 10.30 is too late. It would be better to air double eps starting at 9.30, then they would actually get more people watching through to 11.30. Just my opinion!!

The TBA at 8pm Wed is What’s Good For You.

I think they should show something like CSI Miami and second eps of ER Tuesday nights instead of movies. Mid week movies seem out of place,

I will check out Burying Brian too. It has Hayden and Nicky from Outrageous Fortune in the cast.

Yes-Temptation ended in late January (so it’ll won’t air again).

Would be nice if there was new episodes of Wipeout Australia made.

Re: Survivor Samoa

I think Tocantins and China are the only recent seasons where most contestants got a reasonable amount of air-time. There was a much more wholistic, well rounded approach to the editting and everyone got there fair share in the lime light. Samoa on the otherhand has just gravitated towards the a few players which leads to a very unsatifisfying overall viewing experience.

Not suprisingly, both China and Tocantins featured only 16 castaways.

Burying Brian is fantastic – I got it on dvd from New Zealand after a friend recommended it.
It’s a cross between Desperate Housewives & that UK comedy on a few years ago. I really enjoyed it – very funny cast!

I disagree with Mac and Dave – Survivor Samoa is far from the best season, but it does contain one or two characters who shine. The rest are varying shades of beige.

i must say i dont mind sunday, monday and thursday as well as survivor on tuesday. i dont see why they dont put without a trace at 9 30 wednesday. also i think they should put something else on tuesday after 8 30. wednesday should also either have singing bee in the 7 30 slot or the middle following two and a half men.

I realise ER is on Nine now, but with a 41 episope backlog, they got so behind with this, they’ll need to screen double episode blocks (probably twice a week), over the summer recess, to finish screening the final episodes.

Still no Celebrity Singing Bee.
