A new Mick Molloy comedy, a wildlife series with Dr Chris Brown and a fresh quiz show hosted by Shane Jacobson headline the Seven Network’s 2026 programming slate.
Unveiled at Randwick Racecourse last week, Seven’s new season leans into familiar faces, reality formats and major sporting events – but offers no new scripted dramas, with Home and Away remaining its sole continuing series.
Molloy teams up with Glenn Robbins for an as-yet-untitled comedy series featuring “funny friends” as guests, while his sports panel show The Front Bar will return.
Dr Chris Brown will front two programs – Once in a Lifetime, which follows global wildlife adventures with celebrity “unqualified veterinary assistants”, and My Reno Rules, a new renovation competition judged by Neale Whitaker and Simon Cohen.
Jacobson will host Caught in the Middle, a quiz show where two contestants go up against 100 others on a giant screen, while SAS: Australia v England and a rebooted First Dates Australia round out the new offerings.
Music documentaries Tina Arena: Unravel Me, and The Mental As Anything Story join returning hits including The Voice, Farmer Wants a Wife, My Kitchen Rules, The 1% Club, The Chase Australia and Highway Patrol.
Seven will also broadcast the Glasgow Commonwealth Games in July, along with AFL, cricket, and the Brownlow Medal, while its streaming service 7Plus continues to boom.
