Cram (stylised as CRAM!) was an Australian game show hosted by Peter Helliar,[1] which premiered on Network Ten on 2 November 2017 until 14 December 2017.[2]
The premiere was negatively received by viewers, with ratings[3] dwindling as the season progressed and the show rating outside of the top 20 shows of the day for the season finale.[4]
On 9 November 2017, Channel Ten announced at their yearly upfronts event that the show would return for a second season in 2018, after only one episode of the first season had aired.[5] However, a second season never materialised.
The first season did not secure a spot in the top 100 watched free-to-air shows in 2017.[6]
