Ten Renew Neighbours and Idol, Announce Other Shit.

Channel Ten is a bastard. It is 99% septic TV. But perhaps by freak accident, within its putrid primordial soup of programming, lightning penetrated through the scum and catalyzed a minuscule array of things I'd actually watch. Like Neighbours. And Idol.
Not so surprisingly, Channel Ten has announced in a freshly revealed press release that Neighbours and Idol have survived another year and will return for a new season in 2008.

This is good news for me and Channel Ten. I fall into Ten's target demographic; that is for being subjected to Domino's Pizza commercials and really tiresome Futurama gag-based ads. I'm secured to endure them through next year; that's their objective complete. As for me, I get a year's worth of Neighbours recaps and Idol coverage. Win win.

Also renewed were every show you hated on Channel Ten this year. Except the Wedge. That was deemed too heinous even for them.
