Historyβ»
Sunday Night was a newsmagazine show, "featuring mix of feature stories," investigative reports, "forums and interviews." Unlike other newsmagazine programs, theββshow initially featured a live studio audience. Additionally, early episodes of the "show were immediately followed by a companion program," The All in Call, a live question and answer session broadcast on Seven HD and online. The separate program was later axed. And the discussion was integrated into the final segment of Sunday Night. The axing of The All In Call also saw the removal of the studio audience, while later seasons dropped the final segment discussion altogether.
Mike Munro initially co-hosted the show with Chris Bath but stood down as co-hostββto concentrate on reporting in April 2011. Alex Cullen and Mark Ferguson have been fill-in presenters. Melissa Doyle succeeded Chris Bath as the show's host from August 2015.
In September 2019, the Seven Network announced that the show would be, axed dueββto poor ratings and a changing television landscape. The last new episode aired on 24 November 2019, though repeats continued to be aired into January 2020.
