Tricky Business finale

By David Knox on July 17, 2012 / Filed Under Programming 19

Nine has set the date for the season final of Tricky Business.

Set to air as a double episode finale before the Olympics, it will air at 10pm Wednesday July 25.

That means it will wrap at midnight, which is not encouraging for the future of the show.

Unfortunately, those invested in an online petition will need a miracle to get the outcome they want…

    It was the timing that killed it.All they needed was a weekly 7:30pm in place of a Double Big Bang Theory Monday or Tuesday and it might have worked.All History Now

    I can only imagine that Channel Nine were as underwhelmed with this show as the rest of Australia was. But contractural obligations meant that they Had to screen it. Lucky for them it didn’t specify When! Another ‘lame horse’ from the Nine stables has been put out of its misery … and ours.

    It’s totally it’s own fault. As interesting as watching paint dry.

    I really liked this show, but lately I kept seeing ‘previously on Tricky Business’ bits at the start that I didn’t remember seeing. I finally came across it airing one Wednesday night, and realised that I’d obviously missed a number of episodes, so I’ve just given up now. Hopefully it will be repeated on GO sometime, so I can watch the whole season properly.

    What a waste. Nine is a disgrace.

    Why spend over 6 months promoting TB before airing the show if your just going to stuff around with the time slot and make people miss it. No wonder people lose interest

    And season 2 of Cops L.A.C. will air after the Olympics? ;-)

    “…those invested in an online petition will need a miracle…”

    All 762 of them. What’s that noise? Silence – the sound of a second season of TB not being made.

    Has anyone mentioned the fact that ch could have shown TB at 7.30/8.30 on Monday’s rather than The Voice US? It would rate better than the voice. The show could have been much much better.

    Yes.

    Will they get drama points for the second hour?

    This was always going to have a double ep finale before the Olympics! A midnight go ish is a bad sign! Disrespect from Ch9

    Glad I got a Tivo! ;-)

    It’s a shame Nine keeps managing to take a good idea with great actors and screws it up with lousy writing.

    R.I.P. T.B.

    It’s axed.

    Why did ch9 bother making this show, they clearly were not bothered if anyone watched it.?
