Arcade is an Australian television soap opera which aired on Network Ten from 20 January 1980 to 29 February 1980. Following the broadcast of the 76-minute premiere episode, the series then ran five nights a week, Mondays to Fridays, as a 25-minute serial. It was produced solely by Network Ten (as an in-house production) with a start-up budget of almost $1 million. Arcade was set in a fictitious shopping mall in the northern suburbs of Sydney. The show dealt with the lives and loves of the characters who worked at the various stores within the shopping complex. It is regarded as one of the least successful dramas in the history of Australian television.^[1]
