David Tench Tonight
Encyclopedia
David Tench Tonight was a short-lived television talk show created for Network Ten
in Australia
. The series featured David Tench, an animated fictional character, as host.
The name "Tench" is a partial anagram created from the name Channel Ten.
Tench conducted interviews with various "celebrities" including Pat Rafter
, Nick Lachey
, Ronn Moss
, Nelly Furtado
and Ella Hooper
.
The 2006 season finale (episode 15) was shown on 23 November 2006. A Christmas special aired on 25 December 2006 at 10:30pm.
It was reported in The Daily Telegraph
on 5 April 2007 that David Tench Tonight had been axed by Network Ten
.
.
Tench was rendered and animated in real-time using motion capture
technology. The guests were therefore able to see him and respond to him in real-time.
Radio host Mick Molloy
, who was a guest on the 11 October 2006 episode, clarified on his radio show Tough Love
that the David Tench desk had no-one behind it and the guest spoke to a television setup behind the desk to "interact" with Tench.
The character of Tench was conceived by Andrew Denton
and technically designed by Australian visual effects company Animal Logic
. Animal Logic used the VICON MX40 technology to create David Tench.
The concept of an animated talk show host was not entirely new. Hand-drawn animation was used to bring Space Ghost
to life in the 1994 talk show Space Ghost Coast to Coast
. An earlier similar gimmick was used in the British talk and music video show The Max Talking Headroom Show, featuring Max Headroom
. Max, however, was not computer-generated but was realised by a clever mixture of prosthetic costuming and video effects, and was also able to interact with his guests.
utilised a technique called viral marketing
to create publicity for the then unestablished show and character. Publicity included small spot television advertisements with David Tench quotes written for the show, accompanied by the simple tagline, "finally, someone real on television."
A large amount of general interest was generated with seemingly minimal effort. However, this method of marketing was criticised by some as a cheap stunt to fool people's better judgment.
on 31 July 2006, Network Ten had revealed Tench as an animated talk show host with an American
accent. However, he often lapsed into a quasi-Australian accent during his interviews.
The 30-minute premiere episode aired on Thursday, 17 August 2006 at 8.30pm (AEST).
The show then moved to a new timeslot - Thursdays at 9.30pm AEST. The timeslot switch was promoted as a change to accommodate a new (in the network's words) "naught[ier]" content shift for the program, although based on the steady decline of viewing figures, it is easily visible that this is a change based on an attempt to reclaim audience share in the preceding timeslot.
The studio audience was made up of the general public who attended the show's taping.
