D'oh, no more Simpsons at 6pm

[mangis]

Channel Ten to cut the 6pm re-runs of the Simpsons:
News.com

Apparently it costs $25,000 an episode to air, (for repeats!!!) and since Channel 10 is a regular third at 6pm, it makes sense financially to drop it.

Not sure the extra 30 minutes of news will be a good idea, channel Ten's news is always a bit sparse in the "real news" section, and I doubt they will go for something more like SBS World News...

And how can you cut the Simpsons and keep neighbours?

Well I suppose it much make financial sense. Have you seen that show ? It must cost less than $25,000 to produce each episode ... it must. The acting is so god awful and they probably just reuse scripts from 2 seasons ago, or borrow them from home and away.
