10 Comedy is an Australian free-to-air TV channel managed by Network 10. Initially launched on 11 January 2011 under the name Eleven, it is owned by ElevenCo, a partnership between Ten Network Holdings and CBS Studios International. CBS Studios International took full control of Network Ten in 2017.

The channel mainly caters to a young adult audience and was the original broadcaster of Neighbours, Australia's longest-standing drama series. Prior to the introduction of 10 Shake, it also included programming aimed at children.

History

Prior to the channel's debut, Ten Network Holdings, operating independently at the time, established a joint venture called ElevenCo alongside international distributor CBS Studios International. Ten held a majority two-thirds share, with CBS owning the remaining third, providing Eleven with access to CBS’s extensive programming library. When Ten Network Holdings entered administration in 2017, CBS Corporation acquired full ownership of Eleven. After CBS merged with Viacom, 10 Comedy became affiliated with sister networks MTV and Nickelodeon.

10 Peach (2018–2024)

On 31 October 2018, the channel underwent rebranding to become 10 Peach as part of Network Ten’s wider brand refresh. The "Peach" name was selected to better define the channel’s content focus; Beverley McGarvey, Network 10’s chief content officer, described it as "relaxed" and positioned as a "guilty pleasure," featuring series like Neighbours, Supernatural, This Is Us, and Will & Grace, aimed at younger viewers.

10 Comedy (2024–present)

On 5 June 2024, the channel adopted the name 10 Peach Comedy, officially rebranding on 12 June 2024 to align with changes made to Bold and Peach channels that emphasized their genre-specific identities.

By 30 June 2025, after seven years of using the Peach brand, the channel simplified its identity to 10 Comedy, reflecting Network 10’s strategy to unify branding across its television and streaming platforms.

Programming

The programming on 10 Comedy largely consists of catch-up and repeat broadcasts from Channel 10, including classic comedy and drama series from the 1980s through the early 2000s. These programs are sourced from Paramount Television, CBS Studios, and CBS Studios International under parent company Paramount Global.

Programs targeting younger viewers such as Neighbours were transferred to Eleven at the channel’s inception so that 10 Comedy could focus on an older demographic. In 2015, Neighbours was Eleven’s top-rated show and ranked as the highest-performing Australian program on digital multichannels with an average audience of 278,000.

Several shows originally airing on Ten—including Toasted TV, Totally Wild, Scope, Wurrawhy, and Mako: Island of Secrets—shifted to Eleven following scheduling adjustments linked to new programs like Wake Up and Studio 10. Original Australian productions featured on 10 Comedy include Couch Time, The Loop, and Bondi Ink Tattoo.

Between April and September 2020, a six-hour children’s block branded as Toasted TV aired on the channel before all children’s content was moved exclusively to 10 Shake.

Additionally, the channel broadcasts films and television shows from major studios such as Paramount Pictures, DreamWorks Pictures, MTV Entertainment Studios, Miramax, and Paramount Players.
