Channel 10 has announced programming for 2023.
The biggest news from the station’s Upfronts presentation — a media-buyer event where a TV network promotes its upcoming year — is that current affairs program The Project is staying put despite rumors of it having to deal with the ax due to low ratings. .
Ten has pledged to continue broadcasting the Rove McManus-produced news show for another year, which, in addition to its viewing problems, is sometimes criticized for its left-wing bias.

The Bachelors, an updated version of The Bachelor with three suitors instead of one, finally got a broadcast date: January 2023.
The dating show was dropped from this year’s schedule to make way for The Real Love Boat, which premiered Wednesday with poor ratings.
There were also a handful of new formats, including a local version of the British comedy game show Taskmaster, hosted by Tom Gleeson and Tom Cashman, and a new drama series called North Shore.
