For two of the longest serving presenters to leave, I hope SBS6 know what they're doing.

Yes, major changes were announced, but nobody knows what they want to do with the programme. As a result, two of the main presenters were fired, and the weather presenter didn't get a new contract. He will leave the programme next month, after 23 years.

Several years ago, SBS wanted to refresh the programme to attract a younger audience. A new set, new graphics and music were introduced, and two main presenters were fired. They didn't succeed, the ratings dropped.
