When Packer took over again at Ten, he signalled that he was going to can OneHD.
The reason - he owns foxtel, so OneHD is taking away money from Foxtel. He wants people to pay for the privledge of watching sport.
Can't be all that bad. I'm sick of turning over to OneHD and seeing friggin Netball! Doesn't interest me in the slightest. At least now there might be something decent to watch on there more often.
Where do ONE changes leave panel shows?

This week ONE confirmed that AFL, Formula 1 and MotoGP would remain on the channel when it rebrands to a male-skewed channel with entertainment.
But where does that leave other sports such as basketball, golf, swimming and more? And what of Sports Tonight and weeknight panel shows such as The Game Plan: NRL and One Week at a Time?
A TEN spokesperson told TV Tonight, “It’s too early to discuss any particular sports rights but over the coming weeks we’ll be providing individual sports rights holders with more certainty around our plans for the ongoing role of sport across our channels.
“Panel-based programs will continue to play a role in ONE’s line-up.â€
Meanwhile some readers have been asking about whether The Bolt Report on TEN will impact on the long-running Video Hits.
“Video Hits remains an important feature of both TEN’s Saturday and Sunday schedule and we’ll reveal exact timeslot details over the next few weeks,†said the spokesperson.
Here's a bit more of an update from TV Tonight ......not that it says much!!
The bucks games were shown because Andrew Bogut actually paid for the rights for it to be shown on Aussie TV im pretty sure. So while it's a Bucks game, the alternative is Bocce or more Netball. They wouldnt be showing anything NBA if it wasn't for Bogut.
Do we know if they are doing the IPL this year?.
