The Project

The Project, which was known as The 7PM Project from 2009 to 2011, is an Australian television panel program focused on news and current affairs. It airs on weeknights on Network Ten and is produced by Roving Enterprises. The show features hosts Waleed Aly, Carrie Bickmore, and Peter Helliar during the weekdays, while Lisa Wilkinson, Hamish Macdonald, and Tommy Little take over on Sundays, accompanied by various guest panellists each day. The one-hour program debuted on July 20, 2009, and is broadcast live in the eastern states of Australia, with some delays in other regions, such as Queensland during daylight saving time. The show runs from Monday to Friday from Network Ten's studio located at The Como Centre in South Yarra, Melbourne, and on Sundays from their Sydney studio in Pyrmont. The Project combines recent news stories with humor, often providing a different perspective from traditional news outlets. It typically airs 51 weeks a year, with short breaks during the Christmas and New Year holidays.
