Eleven (stylized as ELEVEN) is an Australian free-to-air digital television multichannel operated by Network Ten. It is owned by ElevenCo, which is ultimately owned by CBS Corporation. The channel launched on 11 January 2011.[3] Targeting people 16 to 39, Eleven offers eight to ten daily episodes of Frasier and catch-up programming from Ten. Eleven is the home of Australia’s longest running drama series, Neighbours.[4][5]

Ownership

Prior to the launch of the channel, Ten Network Holdings, at the time an independent company, established a joint venture company named ElevenCo with international distributor CBS Studios International.[6][7] Ten held a two-thirds equity stake in the venture, with CBS holding the remaining share. Under the arrangement, Eleven gained access to programming from CBS's back catalogue. Ten Network Holdings entered administration in 2017 and was subsequently acquired by CBS Corporation, ultimately giving CBS full ownership of Eleven.

Programming

Eleven offers catch-up and encore presentations from Channel Ten.[4][8][9] It features a mix of repeated old shows, new shows to Australian television, and shows that would make their debut on Australian free-to-air television.

Some of Ten's shows aimed at a younger demographic, most notably Neighbours and The Simpsons, were moved to Eleven on the day it launched, as part of Ten's re-branding to target the older demographic, while the younger shows move to Eleven.[10][11][12] The decision to move Neighbours and The Simpsons was to also make way for a new current affairs show in Ten's 6:00–7:00pm timeslot.[10] Neighbours has since become Eleven's highest-rating program and the number-one regular Australian program on the digital multichannels, averaging 278,000 viewers.[4]

Eleven offers repeats of Everybody Loves Raymond everyday and all day, if you missed an episode, no need to panic, the same episode will be repeated at least three more times during the day and thirteen times throughout the week.

On 27 February 2012, Toasted TV was moved from Ten to Eleven due to a number of changes to their morning line-up, which included the launch of Breakfast.[13] In November 2013, more of Ten's shows including Totally Wild, Scope, Wurrawhy and Mako: Island of Secrets moved to Eleven due to the launch of Wake Up, later cancelled due to bankruptcy and Studio 10. Other first-run Australian content on Eleven include Couch Time, The Loop and Bondi Ink Tattoo.[8][14]
