Channel 10 has shafted Reef Doctors to a late night slot after a dismal first outing.
The move comes after the Lisa McCune drama posted one of the worst ratings debuts for an Aussie drama on record on Sunday night.
The much-delayed adventure managed a pitiful 357,000 viewers nationally after being stuck on the shelves for close to two years.
Reef Doctors will now air Friday nights at 9.30pm from Friday, June 21,
Ten will replace Reef Doctors on Sundays at 6.30pm with double episodes of US sitcom Modern Family.
