Channel 10’s BREAKFAST is settling in; no one really knows (or necessarily cares) what’s happening with EXCESS BAGGAGE; and there’s still a lot of programming that people are wondering where it’s gonna fit in. The AFL is but a couple of weeks away and Channel 7 are poised to make the most out of that, and BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS has some competition in THE LIVING ROOM on Ch10 which has started filming. Oh, and how do we know the NRL season has started again? Delayed games into Queensland. Welcome to autumn programming in Australia.

Homeland continues to be the smartest and most compelling drama on Australian TV. Catch up on the Ch10 website and get watching, as it’s BRILLIANT.

Tucked away on 7mate is an unbelievable US Travel Network show called Man v Food – check out the best/worst of what America has to offer if you want a heart attack by the time you’re 35.

Santo, Sam & Ed’s Sports Fever, now running live to air at 8:30pm on 7mate, is a bunch of fun and should be enjoyed.

A delightful way to spend your Friday nights by enjoying a high quality whodunnit series – Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries.
