Ten is really suffering ratings-wise, and have filled their schedule with a load of awful shows. What should they replace their crappy schedule with?

MONDAY
7.30pm Australian Idol
8.30pm ??? (If Numb3rs is rating badly, they should replace it with Law & Order)
9.30pm The Biggest Loser

TUESDAY
7.30pm The Simpsons (Maybe Ten can get the rights to another animated show from Seven. 'King of the Hill'? 'Family Guy'?)
8.30pm ??? (If it were rating well, i'd say 'The O.C.' reruns, but I can't think of anything)
9.30pm ??? (I'm surprised Rove hasn't been axed yet)

WEDNESDAY
8.30pm House
9.30pm ??? (I think Criminal Intent, or The Shield should take this slot)
10.00pm ???

THURSDAY
8.30pm Law & Order : SVU
9.30pm The Surgeon (Meh, it's very uneventful, but I think i'll stick around to watching it this week)
10.00pm ???

FRIDAY
7.30pm The Simpsons (Ten should air By Request' specials, or theme nights.)
8.30pm ??? (Ten should start purchasing the rights to "box office hits" if their horrid line-up of movies are to rate well)

SATURDAY
7.30pm Oprah (I think Oprah should stay put. But I wish Ten would stop airing "Celebrity Specials" though.)
8.30pm ???

SUNDAY
7.30pm Australian Idol
8.30pm Mary Bryant (That mini-series will take up this slot next week, so...)

i would put the nanny on 24/7  

Ten has it's hands on such great shows but put them on so late eg: The Shield, that they don't rate. I love Numb3rs but tape Grey's Anatomy and watch new stuff from the US on DVD. I Love all but the original Law and Orders. I find all commercial Stations buy up potentially great shows then stick them in nevernever land where they don't rate then they are justified in axing the show.

Shows to go -

Idol
any other reality TV show
neigh-bores (intentional spelling!)
Sports Tonight
meet the press (just what the kids want to watch of a sunday morning that one!)
Aerobics Oz Style (although my 13 year old has suddenly taken an interest in aerobics, I dont think it is for the exercise routines)
Judge Judy
Oprah

that'll do for a start!

If Numb3rs is rating badly, they should replace it with Law & Order

Please No. No more law and order.  I don't care if they play test patterns instead but please no more repeats and franchise duds.  I beseech the gods of television to save me from another frigging episode of any brand of law and order

(don't take it personally Sillygostly...I just can't take it anymore)

MONDAY
Idol has to be put down, along with all reality TV (put em all in the BB house & tell theUS Bin Laden's in it)  

TUESDAY
The more Simpsons the better
Yeah Rove is pretty shocking (but he must rate well, all those logies)

WEDNESDAY
House was ten best call for a long time!!

THURSDAY
The sugeon is quite shocking, especially the first episode running straight after House

FRIDAY
Agree with you on Simpsons-by-request (replay more than seasons 1-6 ten)

10 also need to stop showing so many hours of Law & order & also put Galactica back on

Seinfeld by request at least one night a week for 1 hour .

I'd put 7th Heaven, One Tree Hill, Summerland and Charmed Back on!

Good call  

What about this "BLOKESWORLD PRIMETIME" ( just joking )

How about 10 bring back One Tree Hill and instead of showing old simpson repeats - show it instead(maybe the 7:30pm timeslot on a Friday night, which they did originally before they yanked it off air- 9 episodes into the 1st season).

Theres so many US programs we dont even get.
I'd love some more comedy. Things with actors in them!! No more idol. 1/2 an hour a week is enough. They can each sing a 5 minute clip and people can vote. We don't need so many stupid hosts.

Decent movies. Not these old movies that are on once a year. If you wanted to see the same movie that often, you would get cable  

Oprah prime time would be good, if they didn't put the same thing on day time oprah 2 weeks later. and oprah has been on tv for so many years in australia, and not bothered to come here once.

Can Adelaide actually have a program thats for Adelaide?
Im sick of all this stuff thats about melbourne or sydney. Something local would be good. Those stupid kids game shows or even adult game shows that people in SA have no chance of ever being on. LOCAL!!! Something we can do.. see live.. ect.

Ready steady cook.. I dont like it. but it Could be local.

I hate the uplate game show. it should be banned for discrimination.

Law and order should be once a week, not almost every single day.
I'd rather see the guardian and some new programs.
The closer might be good on a night other than sunday at 9:30.

Tuesday night simpsons is suppposed to be new episodes, but there have only been 3 new ones. They always put the same episodes on. Take yugio and morning programs like that off too.

I'd put 7th Heaven, One Tree Hill, Summerland and Charmed Back on!

HELL NO... We don't need any of that cissy crap... and certainly not any corny witch programs or goody goody church rubbish.

Get rid of the Surgeon - It's boring crap and isn't 1% as brilliant as the american dramas. All saints in the australians best hospital Drama, we don't need a cheesy pile of puke with actors and actresses who can't act a smidgen (I'm talking about 'the Surgeon' not All saints.)

Enough with this reality bollocks... I swear if they put another series of Big Brother or Australian Idol, I'm going to go postal towards those guys.

Sadly enough - Galactica was crap - It was on, and now it's not - Lets keep it that way.

Sports tonight is way too long. You only need 5 mins to cover everything.

BASICALLY - Less of the australian crap and more of the good American and British Shows.

Just in tonight: Bert Newton will leave the Ten Network at the end of this year!

Channel Ten's CEO Grant Blackley has made the following statement:

"We have been in genuine negotiations with Bert for more than three months with a view to signing him to a new contract (and) have put forward a range of ideas and program opportunities to him, recognising his enduring position as one of Australia's - and Ten's - highest calibre stars."

Says Bert: "Fourteen years is a long time for any television show and this one was very special to me,"

"In making my decision, I felt with the show going to end, it made sense for me to make the break, too. I leave Ten with some great memories."

Ten is developing a brand new daytime show for 2006.

Well.. mornings will never be the same for me! I remember watching the very first episode of Bert's Morning Show, back when it was filmed in Nunanwading. Advertorials and all, it was my background music each morning for the past 15 years.

I wonder what/who will replace it? And what has Bert been lured to? Nine? Seven?

what has Bert been lured to? Nine? Seven?

Old age pension I would suspect.
