Televised Revolution – Episode 222 | The technological revolution may be responsible for the radical shifts in the way that we consume and interact with content, but the fundamental legal principles that protect consumers and content owners alike are still in place. This was put to the test with the Optus TV Now case in which the NRL, AFL, and Telstra sought an injunction to prevent Optus from continuing to provide the service. (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/afl-tv-broadcast-300x168.jpg)This week on Televised Revolution we chat with Peter Black, Senior Lecturer in Law at the Queensland University of Technology, about the case and its implications on time shifting content. Also up for discussion: * BTjunkie shuts down for good. * HBO invests $10 million into streaming service Quickflix.

Televised Revolution – Episode 221 | Launching on SBS1 on Feb 27 at 9:30pm is Danger 5 - a TV show that finally embraces the medium to its fullest potential with its tales of Nazi's, dinosaurs, and diamond-clad vixens. (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/danger5.png) For me, this is THE show of 2012. It's a show that is doing something creative and unique on Australian TV. You will not see another show like this again. Well, probably not. On this episode of Televised Revolution, Dan speaks with the shows creators Dario Russo and David Ashby about the production of the series and how it came about.

Televised Revolution – Episode 220 | With the 2012 TV ratings schedules kicking off this week, we find ourselves in an interesting week in which we see further divesting of shares in FTA television, various executive shuffles, and a report into the very nature of TV schedules themselves. A new survey by (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Screen-Shot-2012-01-31-at-7.21.12-PM-300x151.png)Deloitte has found that viewers are still keen to adhere to television schedules as they form habits and ease of program selection. It's fascinating, if as indicative of viewer behaviours as it may well be. This week Dan and Simon discuss: * The Deloitte audience report. * The passing of some TV greats. * Lee Anderson returns to Channel 9 Brisbane. * Fear Factor offers a donkey-based beverage. * And much, much more.

Televised Revolution – Episode 219 | Amid violent tropical storms taking place outside the window of The Radio Wolf HQ, the Televised Revolution team of Dan and Dennis have taken to the microphone to excitedly chat about all things TV and televisual. On the show this week we talk to John Richards (http://outlandinstitute.wordpress.com/) about his upcoming ABC1 show Outland as we find out just how someone goes from podcasting about television (he is part of the panel on another TV podcast Boxcutters) to producing a bona fide TV show. (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/julian_assange-300x168.jpg)Also up for discussion: * Quickflix have signed a deal with HBO. * Neil Shoebridge has left the AFR for Channel Ten. * Channel Ten name their lineup for Breakfast. * Wikileaks announce the Julian Assange interview series.

Televised Revolution – Episode 218 | Once you get past the general awfulness of the Golden Globes, there was a sense that we're seeing the end of an era. The Golden Globes are always a bit more interesting for their mix of television and film, but just as we've seen television take on a more prominent role in (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/eleven-300x229.jpg)the awards as the quality of TV has gotten better, I suspect we're about to see online content take a more significant role in award shows like this. With Hulu, Amazon, and Netflix all investing in high-end scripted TV, how long is it until we see nominations come from these productions? Traditional broadcast television is still important in our regular consumption, but if this weeks TV-related news is any indication, 2012 is going to really deliver significant change as streaming media really makes an impact in the way we consume content. This week onTelevised Revolution: * We chat to Channel Tens Beverley McGarvey about the 1-year anniversary of Eleven. We also learn why it is that Terriers hasn't yet gotten a run on One HD. * Stefanie Kechayas (http://twitter.com/stefanitza) runs through the highlights and lowlights of the Golden Globes. * Foxtel to soon be available on Samsung Smart TV's. * ABC adopt Brightcove as their iView delivery platform of choice. * Southern Star boss Rory Callaghan quits. * Hulu announces massive TV content expenditure. * Nine hire a new Director of Communications.

Televised Revolution – Episode 217 | After a handful of weeks with minimal TV news to have a natter about, the industry appears to be picking up steam with TV news (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/mad-men-cast-300x203.jpg)busting out everywhere. * The return date for Mad Men has been set. * KAK signed up for Dancing With the Stars. * Big Brother returns to Dreamworld. * The Real Housewives of Launceston? Or, well, somewhere in Australia. * TV tech from CES. * Netflix launches in the UK. In the podcast we make mention of a new set for CBS 'This Morning'. You can check out video of the set at White Noise (http://blogs.crikey.com.au/whitenoise/2012/01/10/the-cbs-this-morning-set/).

Televised Revolution – Episode 216 | This weeks episode is so relaxed that neither Dan nor Dennis felt they were even wearing pants. On this very quiet news week, Dan and Dennis take the time to discuss the TV-related adventures they had while on their Christmas break. (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/james-warburton-300x168.jpg)The two news stories discussed are: * James Warburton assumes the CEO position at Ten. * Kim Watkins turns down the new Ten Breakfast show. For further reading on issues flagged on the podcast: * Research on the reaction traditional TV viewers have to online services (http://blogs.crikey.com.au/whitenoise/2011/03/15/cutting-the-cord-not-yet/). * Shows unable to be screened by Foxtel (http://www.foxtel.com.au/whats-on/blackout/default.htm) on their Foxtel IPTV service delivered through XBox and the T-Box.

Televised Revolution – Episode 215 | As we do every year, Televised Revolution does an end of year wrap. We take a look through the television year that was. The panel each cite the issues and events that they feel shaped the television year. (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/2011-300x200.jpg)But, this year we're doing it a little different. In the spirit of television cross-overs, we're bringing in the panel of The 400 Club to join the chatter in defining the year that was. While the regular host of The 400 Club Dave Owen couldn't make it in for the recording, panelists Prue Martin and Dan Barrett are in the chair to give their opinions (a massive cheat as Dan hosts TV Rev anyway). Stay tuned for the cross-over to continue as the gents from Televised Revolution then go and join the panel of The 400 Club this week as they provide an end of year wrap of the best TV shows of 2011.

Televised Revolution – Episode 214 | It's just a few days before Christmas, yet the TV news is still out there and needing to be discussed. If Dicko leaves his show and there is nobody there to talk about it, did it really happen? Well, yeah. There is a press release. But, I think you all understand what I'm saying. Even if I do not. (http://theradiowolf.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/momfxmas.jpg)This week on Televised Revolution, Dan and Simon discuss: * Homeland to debut in Australia on the Telstra T-Box ahead of its Channel Ten airdate. * Dicko announces he's giving up his on-air role as host of Can of Worms. * Chrissie Swan leaves The Circle. Dan and Simon also provide a rundown of TV viewing highlights.

Televised Revolution – Episode 212 | It’s been a massive week for discussion about the digital future of television. We’re seeing established products rebrand as they gear up for consumption by way of Connected Television, as well as parts of Australia farewelling analog television in favour of the multi-channel digital service. This week Dan and Dennis discuss: YouTube revamps itself to focus much more on channels. Regional QLD shuts off the analog TV signal. Channel 9 catch-up service FixPlay rebrands itself as NineMSN Video in the lead-up to an XBox Live revamp. The Australia Network is now permanently in the hands of the ABC.

Televised Revolution – Episode 211 | We get a little obsessed with It’s A Knockout on this weeks Televised Revolution podcast. We offer our thoughts on the first episode of the revival of the series that aired on Sunday night (Channel Ten, 7:30pm), as well as interview HG Nelson about his role as co-host of the new series. We also chat about: ABC Television and Channel 9 announce their 2012 slate. iView post some high viewership figures. Who is cutting the cord? Denise Drysdale says goodbye to The Circle.

Televised Revolution – Episode 210 | It’s a quiet week on Televised Revolution, which must be a sign that we’re gearing down for the upcoming Christmas break. We do talk up: Why is it almost impossible to sign up to Quickflicks? The Munsters and The Muppets are making their way back to television (individually). Warwick Capper is talking up a TV project that may not actually exist. The ARIA Awards are coming to your phone. Arrested Development confirmed for Netflix. And much, much more. Apologies for all the sound issues on this podcast. They were almost impossible to avoid. At Televised Revolution, we look forward to receiving your mail and check us out on the Twitter.

Televised Revolution – Episode 209 | Iain Morris is one half of the team responsible for The Inbetweeners. Together with writing partner Damon Beasley, the two have crafted one of the funniest, brutally honest comedies to air on television. Morris has also had his hand in series like Peep Show and Flight of The Conchords, while also working with UK comedy greats like Jimmy Carr and Ricky Gervais. Episode 209 of the Televised Revolution podcast features an interview with Morris, in town for the launch of The Inbetweeners movie. We discuss the writing of the TV series, just how handsome the stars of the US adaptation of the series will be, the upcoming Muppets movie, and just how bent Neil’s Dad really is.

Televised Revolution – Episode 208 | The issue of television piracy has become a massive story this week with Matchbox Pictures citing a victory over the online pirates with the announced closure of Diwana.org. A small victory, ultimately, as it achieves next to nothing more than shutting down one of the few torrent sites that is willing to play ball with content owners. Sure, Diwana may be closed, but The Slap continues to be available across many of the major torrent sites - sites that lack a thriving community of Australian TV archivists. This week on Televised Revolution we have a chat with Diwana owner 'Fr3ak'. We also discuss: Foxtel gets itself a new CEO after Big Harto steps down at News Ltd. Ashton Kutcher says goodbye to his direct Twitter activities. Hybrid TV gets a new boss after Robee leaves for the US. Anil Kapoor buys the franchise rights to 24: India. And much, much more.

Televised Revolution – Episode 206 | We make it a habit here on Televised Revolution to have a chat with the CEO's of our local community television station, 31 Digital. We've had a chat with Andrew Carroll, Paul Mills, and now the new CEO Scott Black. As good quality production equipment gets cheaper and the opportunities for DIY distribution increase with the availablity of platforms like YouTube, the role of the community broadcaster comes into question somewhat. We chat with Scott about this and what the benefits of community broadcasting have over online distribution. Further to this, we discuss the state of the union for 31 Digital, its history of confusing branding, and what Blacks vision is for the future of 31 Digital. Even for those who aren't Brisbane locals, this should prove to be an interesting interview. What happens when a community TV staffer takes control of the organization and finally has the chance to put into place his own vision for the organization - an organization that has been in disarray for many years.

Televised Revolution – Episode 205 | The Internet changed the game for television distribution. No longer are TV services restricted to being provided by those who have been provided with access to the airwaves/permission to cable by the Government, but now any company that strikes a deal with content creators/distributors can now deliver content to the home. As broadband data allowances offer increasingly generous data allowances and more TV's are connected to the Internet (either directly, or via devices that have a net connection like Bluray players, gaming consoles, etc), the race is on for companies to establish themselves and take ownership of the space. One such company is Quickflix. Quickflix have established themselves as a mail DVD distribution service. Customers pay a monthly fee and 'rent' DVD's from Quickflix, with discs delivered by traditional mail services. Last week they announced that they have launched a video streaming service. With US companies like Netflix and Hulu expected to launch in Australia soon, Quickflix Watch Now represents an attempt to own the Australian market before the competition gets a foothold. This week on Televised Revolution we interview Chris Taylor, the CEO of Quickflix, about the launch of the service and what customers can expect. | 11/1/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Televised Revolution – Episode 204 | We have a bonus episode of Televised Revolution this week featuring an interview with Michael Bodey. Bodey, a writer on the media for The Australian, has written Broadcast Wars which sets its focus on the Australian TV industry following on from the death of Kerry Packer. The Australian TV industry has a number of colourful characters and has undergone such a radical transformation over the past decade. With changes to management, changes to TV content with the mass interest in reality television, and the introduction of new digital platforms, any book on the Australian TV industry can't help but be compelling reading. On this episode, Dan has a chat with Michael Bodey about the book and about the Australian TV industry in general.
