Morning wars: Studio 10 cancelled

Hosts Angela Bishop and Tristan MacManus posted a video announcement to Instagram saying it was a "tough day for the whole Studio 10 family".

"We've loved bringing you the show everyday for the last ten years, it's been a blast," Ms Bishop said.

Studio 10 produced more than 2,500 shows in an "epic decade" of morning television chatting with regular favourite guests including Denise Drysdale, Denise Scott and Kerri-Anne Kennerley.

Network Ten said the show was a "great contributor" to the daytime program lineup.

"We would like to sincerely thank all those who have participated in and supported the program over the past decade and to the millions of viewers who tuned in over that time, " a spokesperson said.

"It has been a show that has provided copious amounts of feelgood fun, joy, passion, heart, entertainment, and unforgettable moments all against the backdrop of live television.

"Although we are sad to be farewelling the program, the decision to cease production of Studio 10 comes after a change in viewing habits in daytime television.

"In 2024 there will be a new morning lineup with an increased focus on news and current affairs later in the day."

"We promise you, we'll be going out with a bang," the announcement said.
