TasTVcameraman: Disagree loved the Carols on
Nine.More people watched Nine Then Sevens attempt on Carols
Have to agree with you @TasTVcameraman. I went to bed half way through Carols and listened to it-ad. free-on the radio, when the good singers came on late in the night. The first 3/4 of the show seemed to be devoted to The Voice contestants. Carols has turned into a Channel 9 cross promotion. And yes the hosts were dismal.
@tastvcameraman – lol what do you expect? It’s Christmas carols. Your hardly gonna get a rock concert, as well you shouldn’t.
How did cricket help when it’s played in the day and not between 6pm and 12pm?
It didn’t help Ten.
Carols……….I have not watched it all the way through ever since the Today show hosts have hosted. I used to watch it every year without fail, but now it seems to have descended into just Christmas songs…..and bad ones. I guess that what CD’s were invented for.
