Amazon Prime Video has announced the premieres of two key launches: a new take on Cinderella and the final season of detective drama Bosch. The Cinderella musical, which includes Camila Cabello, Idina Menzel and Billy Porter in the cast, will stream from September and S7 of Bosch in June. “Cinderella is a classic we all […]

It’s not clear where the Friends Reunion special will screen in NZ but it won’t be on the network that launched the series, TVNZ 2. Although the broadcaster has virtually re-run the series perpetually since its 1994 launch, and streams it OnDemand, it’s missed out on the COVID-delayed one where the gang and a raft […]

Three’s Wednesday night reign ended this week when TVNZ 1’s line-up proved unbeatable in the 25-54 demographic and dominated in the 18-49 demo. Bradley Walsh & Son: Breaking Dad averaged 6.8% of 25-54s and 4.8% of 18-49s, which was more than double last week’s viewership. As a result, lead-out Million Pound Cube was up week-on-week, to […]

The original Scarface makes it mark here on Blu-ray for the first time as part of ViaVision’s excellent Imprint series of vintage restorations. It includes both the theatrical and censored versions of Howard Hawks’ 1932 gangster classic, as well as: Audio commentary with film historian Drew Casper (on theatrical cut) Video interview with film critic Matthew […]

➢➢ Given the themed programming of its Monday and Tuesday crime franchise double-bills, you would thought Three might have replaced The Rookie with Magnum P.I. as the new Wednesday night Hawaii Five-O stablemate. Instead, it will launch on May 26 a two-year-old procedural that’s since been canned. L.A.’s Finest stars Jessica Alba and Gabrielle Union as the […]

TVNZ 1’s The Dog House has bounded back to being a top performer two weeks after the second season started “paw”-ly. Tuesday’s episode easily won the 8.30 hour, with 5.1% of the network’s target audience, 25-54 year-olds, and 4.4% of its next key demographic, 18-49s. That’s a big leap from its April 27 return, when […]

Neon will stream the great Italian gangster saga Gomorrah from May 24 — but at this stage it will be only season one. Sky has yet to confirm when or if the rest of the series will stream but it seems likely given S4 is about to premiere on HBO Max in the US. “Gomorrah […]

The third and final season of the knockout Australian hitman dramedy Mr Inbetween will premiere next month on SoHo. It will air 8.30 Thursdays from June 24, a month after its FX and Foxtel bows, as the anchor for a comedy block that includes S3 of Motherland and newcomer Intelligence. Mr Inbetween opens with Ray […]

TVNZ 1’s premiere of The Apprentice Aotearoa improved on the previous series in the network’s 8.30 Monday time slot. But it couldn’t top Three’s 9-1-1 and benefitted from soft competition on TVNZ 2, the low-rating Kiwi drama Vegas. The debut averaged 2.8% of TVNZ 1’s core 25-54 demographic and 1.9% of 18-49 year-olds. The season […]
