The Project (previously The 7PM Project from 2009 to 2011) is an Australian news-current affairs and talk show television panel program, airing weeknights and Sunday across Australia on Network 10, produced by Roving Enterprises. The show is hosted by Waleed Aly, Sarah Harris, Georgie Tunny, Hamish Macdonald, Rove McManus, Sam Taunton and Michael Hing with rotating daily panellists usually appearing once a week.
The one-hour show, formerly half-hour, premiered on 20 July 2009 and airs live in the eastern states with delays in other states (including Queensland during daylight saving). It is broadcast Monday to Friday from Network 10's studio in The Como Centre, South Yarra, Melbourne and Sundays from Network 10's Sydney studios at Pyrmont. The Project draws its content and comedy from recent news stories and offers a sometimes alternative view to mainstream, sponsored news stories. It runs for 51 weeks of the year, taking brief breaks during the Christmas and New Year period.
The Project (as of 2017) has won numerous accolades, 9 Logie Awards, including the Gold Logie won by hosts Carrie Bickmore and Waleed Aly.
