Major change to two Aussie TV channels after The Project's axing
Channel Ten is moving forward with its major rebrand as the network readies to launch a new current affairs show after axing The Project last week. There are new changes on the 10Play platform, which has now been simply renamed 10. 10 Peach has been replaced with 10 Comedy, which is home to TV classics, including Friends and The Big Bang Theory. The network has also rebranded 10 BOLD as 10 Drama, which hosts popular US hit shows including NCIS, SEAL Team and CSI: Vegas. Ten promised to make the change at the 2025 Upfronts.

'From next year, these platforms will simply be known as 10 – giving audiences easy access to all our premium content. '10 will be on-air and on demand wherever our audiences choose to consume their premium video.' It comes after The Project was officially axed last week after 16 years. Hosts Waleed Aly, Sarah Harris and Hamish Macdonald will exit the network, while comedian Sam Taunton will continue his guest appearances on other Ten shows. The last episode will air on June 26, with the panel show being replaced by a new current affairs show.

The premium news program, titled 10 News+, is set to hit screens on Monday, June 30, at 6pm on Channel 10 and 10Play. 10 News+ will be broadcast across the country after Network 10's 5pm local news bulletins, offering a deeper analysis of some of the biggest stories of the day. According to Paramount Australia, the segment aims to 'redefine evening news by providing comprehensive analysis, trusted reporting, and long-form investigative journalism'. Keeping up with Australia's constantly evolving mediascape, the news program will be available via broadcast and streaming, as well as on digital and social platforms. The show's lineup will include former 7News journalist Denham Hitchcock and Walkley Award-winner Amelia Brace, who will be regular faces during the 6pm bulletin from Sunday to Thursday. Ursula Heger and Hugh Riminton will take the lead during the Friday broadcast. The anchor team will be supported by reporters including Ashleigh Raper, Bill Hogan, Brianna Parkins, Samantha Butler, Carrie-Anne Greenbank, and Claudia Vrdoljak. Ten's Entertainment Editor Angela Bishop will also bring insight into the biggest stories in entertainment, including red-carpet events and exclusive interviews with Hollywood's elite. Speaking of the new program, Paramount Australia's Vice President of News Martin White gushed over the 'fantastic team' fronting the program and the 'hard work' that had gone on behind the scenes to bring it to air. 'We're going to do what we do best - put the truth first, our audience first, and tell important stories well,' he said of the new offering. 'We've assembled a fantastic team, led by Denham and Amelia, and I can't wait for audiences to see their hard work.' He went on to highlight the news program's unique offerings. 'What we're doing with 10 News+ is completely different to anything else in the market.
