The loss of audiences to international streaming services has had a huge impact on the audience for NZ media. That affects funding and the number and/or quality of local shows

I’ve found myself moving back to #TVNZ+ and #MāoriTV to watch more NZ content. Both have some great local and international shows

A shrunken future for NZ film without international help

New Zealand's $3 billion screen industry could shrivel up without some drastic improvements in funding. One solution is to ask the big streamers to cough up.

#Walkabout is on Whakaata Māori. They always have the good movies. #MāoriTV #film #NicRoeg
Finally started watching the new TV series of #TheDeadLands. So far, it's ... OK. The screenwriting is a bit weak in places, especially some of the dialogue. I'd love to see #MaoriTV do a version of the audio completely in #TeReoMaori, as the original movie was. I can't help but think that would be cooler.
