NZ On Air Top 20
Curated by Kathryn Quirk 28 items
This special collection looks back at the 20 most watched NZ On Air-funded programmes between 1989 and 2016 — plus some bonus titles that also rated highly.
NZ On Air began funding local content in 1989. Timing in with the launch of a new funding system, this collection looks back at the 20 most watched NZ On Air-funded programmes over the years (aside from news and sports). Ratings information is only available from 1995, so this is how things have shaped up from 1995 to 2016 — plus some bonus titles. Most of the Top 20 has been captioned. Ex NZ On Air exec Kathryn Quirk tells us here how the complete list rated, while original NZOA boss Ruth Harley remembers how it all began.
