Source-derived summary

Kerri-Anne is an Australian morning television program shown on the Nine Network, hosted by Kerri-Anne Kennerley. It was broadcast on weekdays at 9 am for two hours. The final episode of the series was on 25 November 2011. It was replaced by Today Extra, hosted by Sonia Kruger and David Campbell.

History

The program debuted on 28 October 2002 on the Nine Network to compete against Network Ten's Good Morning Australia with Bert Newton. The show began as a one-hour program from 9:30 to 10:30 am five days a week.

In the program's second season in 2003, the show progressed to an hour and a half from 9:30 to 11:00 am. After the network's decision to rest Here's Humphrey, which had been broadcast since 1965, the show began its third season as a two-hour program from 9:00 to 11:00 am.

Mornings proved to be a success against Good Morning Australia and, by the end of 2005, Newton announced that he would be returning to the Nine Network. As a result, Network Ten cancelled the program and replaced it with 9am with David & Kim at the start of the 2006 television season.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Kerri-Anne” as television series. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewBest approached as a cultural-object dossier: authorship and date matter, but circulation and reception often explain the wider significance. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2011, 2002, 2003, 1965—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where Kerri-Anne, television and series can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the arts & letters register because the source frames it as television series. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 10, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6394355. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2011, 2002, 2003 and 1965.

Critical limits

Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Separate the work, its editions or performances, and its later reception. Catalogue records, publication histories and object files often preserve different parts of that story.
