2014-02-02_1851Nine has moved its Schapelle telemovie from Monday to Sunday night.

It says the change is due to “current events.”

Schapelle now screens at 8:30pm with Seven’s INXS miniseries currently at 8:40pm.

  2. If Nine originally wanted the Sunday timeslot for Schapelle, they should have announced an airdate well in advance rather than leaving to the last minute. Silly move as Nine will now lose Monday night as well (in addition to Sunday).

  5. I’ll watch Rake but Scha’pelle will knock all the opposition out of the water. It”ll be like an extended version of ‘A Current Affair’. Come to think of it Denise Richards is a pretty impressive actress so I might Scha’pelle anyway.

  6. I am still planning to record INXS and watch the two parts all together. Its not like we don’t know what happens.

    Not sure can’t Schapelle. I can’t be bothered and my PVR will already be getting a work out recording The Block and MKR.

  7. I’ll be watching Schapelle coz not really into INXS but bad move 9, now that ad for shapelle will be on every ad break so everyone knows errrr (stupid stupid stupid)

  9. Seriously, who gives a shit?

    They will both be repeated.. oh sorry, “encored” about five times each over the next week or two, and a few more times on digital multichannels, so who cares about this anymore?

  11. Ring a ding ding…ratings season is back!
    If I were seven I would seriously consider pulling INXS and saving it for another time. I reckon it will be thumped with the hype surrounding Ms Corby at the moment.
    Seven has 4 eps of kitchen rules, that would if not win a few nights for them, have them within strking distance.

  12. Wow what a strange move. Bet some people will miss it becuase of the change and wont be to happy.

    See INXS beating this for sure but it should still get at least a million

  13. Channel 9 couldn’t have bought the publicity they’ve recevied for Schapelle this week.

    I think MKR will beat Block but Schapelle will beat INXS.

    The loser will be Ch 10.

  14. I wonder if Channel 9 have some inside information on her release date. Kinda makes me wonder why they would do this as the INXS mini series will win hands down

  17. Disgraceful and childish programming by Nine. This last-minute move is to the detriment of Aussie productions and viewers. There will be no winner out of this. Was looking forward to watching Schapelle but won’t be tuning in now, I refuse to reward this sort of behaviour.

  22. What a ridiculous and selfish decision by Nine. Programming 101, give your show some space to grab as much audience as possible.
    A majority of the audience is better than half the audience.

    Two big event TV dramas going head to head like this doesn’t do anybody good. Bad for the industry.

  24. Why is this not a shock to me? Can you blame a fraught, fruitless network for engaging in such a manoeuvre?

    Seven will obliterate all the competition on Sunday with “My Kitchen Rules”, “Sunday Night” and “INXS: Never Tear Us Apart”.
