Offspring was the only thing ten had other then naighbours but why produce a series when you can milk reality tv for all it’s worth and play back to back repeats of everyone loves Raymond Simpsons or Frasier Oh and as for the crappy 7pm project Hughssssy is horrable to watch That is The most #### show ever.
Turn to nine they got some new Aussie drama on soon or catch the mentalist.
i want offspring back i missed the series at the beginning last time and was enjoying it D…m please follow up on your repeats it is not good enough to cancel it again. !!!!!!!!
offsprings is one of thhe best shows that i have seen for 40 years.
i find i can relate to the humour. and i can relate to Ninas job. keep up the great show.
David, if Ten falls short on drama points, what are the consequences?
Programming haywire at 10/11. Go Girls is being burnt off this week (and the local quota requirements probably explain why)
But no explanation as to programming shenanigans on 11. Anyone care to elaborate about where Buffy and Angel have gone?
“Dramedy” rarely does well on these repeat outings – and Offspring has managed to walk the fine line between drama and comedy, however Nina’s “kookiness” is just this side of annoying. Perhaps too much Offspring is a mistake? Ten need to be very careful not to saturate the market with too much “kooky” Asher. And Asher should walk away after the third series – it’s more than enough.
I’m with Matt here. Offspring repeats were the only thing worth watching. I only started watching the series toward the end of season 1, I was quite enjoying seeing it again and making sense of it. I shouldn’t be surprised by TENs moves anymore. Station first, viewers a distant 2nd. Thank goodness for IQ.
Yep, I watch Letterman! 🙂
Do people really watch David Letterman? It’s awful, totally mired in the 60s. Welcome host (screams); opening remarks (more screams); banter with a) offscreen announcer, supposed funny ma; b) more banter with really annoying band leader. Audience screaming all the way through it. Special guest (usually someone famous) plus others we’ve never heard off. Lots of screaming still. Then totally unfunny Top 10 crap.
See, I have watched it – occasionally – with total horror at how old hat it is.
PS: If TEN are desperate for late night content, why not repeat The Circle. Now that’s something I would really like to see – minus the 3 minute long commercials of course!
David, am I right in saying that Ten has now picked up a very hefty amount of this year’s drama points from running New Zealand shows late at night?
Tim: Some drama points from NZ shows. Wouldn’t describe it as hefty. I still think they may finish under the quota minimums….
Meh. I lost interest when the hunky guy left the series.
So now that “Offspring” has been bumped back to 10.30pm, this means that Ch 10 will have to postpone the release of the new Kiwi comedy series, “The Almighty Johnsons”.
This is the 3rd kiwi series that have been mistreated by Ch 10 – “Outrageous Fortune”, ” “Go Girls” & now “The Almighty Johnsons”.
Offspring is 11:30. Almighty Johnsons stays put with its Drama points.
The Late Show…will not be the late show for that night…but the early morning show for the next day….
If it’s under performing and it’s a repeat why can’t it be put on after Letterman or taken off?
Little wonder, I mean the show didn’t do well in its initial airing so what did they expect with repeats? Some people at Ten just seem to have a love affair over this show but reality proves otherwise.
I agree with Jimbo, a pity that the Late Show has been bumped after finally finding a constant timeslot in recent weeks.
They are really messing around with their programming.
W*nkers.
Finally there was something of worth to watch (as I missed the original airing) on Ten at reasonable time frame and once again it’s gone to the dead zone.
Oh well I’ll just record it and ten can continue to fail in the Ratigs until they have to sell off all the programmes that keep them in business.
Does this mean that The Late Show with David Letterman is being pushed back to 12.30am? Damn!
Are they going to repeat series 2 also?Only just caught up on series 1 and it would be great if they do series 2 also so we can be ready for series 3 next year!
So many re-runs, yet another down side to the new multi channel land scape we have and fast tracking of so many shows.
At least TEN is showing so new stuff like The Glades, okay not really new but on FTA for the first time. And they are re-running some local shows like Offspring. Why can’t Seven re-run the Rafters or Nine encore the Sea Patrol final season? Or at least put them on the digital channels?
Perhaps a new positioning statement is required for this network…
“TEN … it repeats on you”…
