Seems like Ten hasn't had a morning show since May, when "Wake Up" was cancelled after only a little over six months on the air. Their current morning lineup is "ET" (the American version), a gardening show, a cooking show, "The Bold and the Beautiful," a repeat of their version of "Family Feud" (host's a white guy, but I wonder if their version is using references to "Junk in the Trunk" and "Worm" like the current U.S. version), and an 8:30 a.m. "View"-ish talk show.
Interestingly, Ten has started branding their newscasts as "Eyewitness News" again after 20 years of "Ten News." The music most people with ABC-owned stations associate with the title (that would be Lalo Schifrin's "Tar Sequence" from "Cool Hand Luke") has been the Nine Network's news theme for decades (a policy of using ABC slogans and jingles for years--I believe they're still using "Still the One!" as their slogan), so they can't use that. (And, unlike some Ten stations back in the 80s, they aren't using "Move Closer to Your World,"" although I would be shocked if they would.) For the record, Seven continues to use John Williams' NBC theme as their news theme, as they have for almost as long as NBC has used "The Mission."
