Hall of Famer
Masked Singer and the Bachelor both axed (seemingly too expensive).
how many of us here are old enough to remember when ch 10 was good? (most likely the days of 6pm Simpsons)
FTA-TV Channel 10 in the mud

Hope Australian Survivor doesn't get cut.

Kind of ironic they're axing 2 "reality" shows because they're too expensive, when FTA networks have favoured them over scripted shows because they were supposedly cheaper to make.
Are there any shows on ten that people would miss these days?
On SM-A125F using BigFooty.com mobile app
Only good show channel 10 has is Have You Been Paying Attention
Cheap seats 
Would've thought Seven would go first after their various defamation suits gone awry.
Guess nobody watches network television anymore so may as well just be 9, ABC and SBS.

I only watch Survivor. That being said I don't really watch FTA and it pisses me off that on my foxtel IQ box I need to load up 10play to watch a channel of ******* television. Can no longer skip ads like I used to be able to.
I honestly can't remember the last time I watched anything on Ch Nein. I watch The Chase Australia on 7, and Have You Been Paying Attention on 10... but I can't recall the last time I watched anything on the Nein network.

R.I.P Aus Survivor 
There are a small number of successful Ch10 shows which will probably get picked up by the other networks - Aus Survivor, and Have You Been Paying Attention would be part of a very short list.R.I.P Aus Survivor

Haven't watched it for years, i gave up on them as it was absolute crap. With reality shows that are horrendous to The Project which is abhorrent, I am not surprised by this news, free to air is doomed. Is Ch 7 next?

I haven't watched TV via an aerial in years and barely have any idea what's on each night. Even when I watch the only two shows on commercial TV live (Have You Been Paying Attention and Cheap Seats), I do it through the app. Streaming has killed commercial TV, they just don't know it yet, and have diversified into so many channels to compete, no one knows what they are actually about. Channel 10 should probably focus on some kind of identity for each night (i.e. one night dedicated to comedy, one to reality, one to game shows, one to classic shows) and try and get the message out. It's not competing any other way.
Streaming services in the US are bundling together now and offering packages cheaper. Basically offering what cable/foxtel was which they supposedly killed.
Piracy or Youtube/self made content will kill streaming if they're not careful

Not many people watch tv these days, just the older people mainly.

All FTA TV is rubbish and anti-siphoning laws are s**t too. It breeds laziness with FTA TV having no incentive to deliver a premium product.

Its a minor thing but cutting the local news at 5 hurt them a lot
It had lead in programs and The Simpsons at 6 kept viewers there
But yes FTA is dying
I am watching Giro on SBS and will watch Velta TDF etc - mostly the last 30kms after watching streaming
Between 3 and 7,30 I am consuming quiz shows on 7 and SBS then streaming after that or no tv
I think Masterchef a few years ago was the last CH10 program I watched
