FOr those of you who are not here and want to get a feel for NZ things try
TVNZ ondemand
This is a site where you can view NZ television via the web. It also has the daily news posted each day. This is TV One which is maybe the most popular of the tv channels. There also also versions of selected programs like country calendar (personal favorite) and location, location location (real estate). Some of these programs will give you a view of NZ that few see unless they are here. The most popular soap opera (Shortland Street) is also on.
This kind of stuff wasn't available when I came years ago but should be interesting for some who are hungry for info.
Cheers..
