Top media people 2016: team HYBPA
Our annual listing of 25 media executives who made a difference this year and are shaping how 2017 will look
Sam Pang, Ed Kavalee, Abby Coleman, Have You Been Paying Attention?
Possibly Network Ten’s most consistent hit show this year leading some to wonder of it could be stripped to run five nights a week! Production house Working Dog can be relied on to deliver week-after-week, but it also pulls out when it wants to move on and Ten will be hoping that doesn’t happen any time soon. The show has helped to profile many emerging talents and to showcase others who had already made a mark. The three to arguably shine the brightest so far are weekly regulars Ed Kavalee and Sam Pang plus regular contributor Abby Coleman. All three also work breakfast radio hours. You can bet this trio is also on the wish list of TV producers for their own projects.
