Every weekday the Erin Simpson Show delivers an afternoon stuffed full of surprises, friendship and laughs.  It's magazine-style infotainment with a target demographic of 10-16 year olds - think "Rove" or "Ellen" with a teenage twist.

In her apartment-styled studio Erin chats with some of New Zealand's biggest stars from music, TV, sports and the arts who inspire our audience to be the best they can.  

Out on the street, a team of passionate young reporters cover what matters giving viewers a VIP front row seat to the country's best events, people and places. Join Chiefs player Isaac Ross (Sports), Shortland Street actress Kim Crossman (Entertainment), fashion guru Katy Thomas (Fashion), ZM DJ Mark Dye (Events) and committed greenie Eve Marama (Environment) to get the low down.  Meanwhile London based reporter Jon Franks gets the inside scoop at the glitzy premieres and gives the show an international feel!

As well the show celebrates our young tall poppies putting teenagers onscreen to tell their own inspiring real life stories of achievement, skill and determination.

The Erin Simpson Show's also jam-packed with music, video and game reviews and competitions with must-have prizes: trips to LA, flights to Justin Bieber's Sydney concert,  backstage passes to meet Katy Perry… all hotly sought-after by a dedicated  audience who love to interact with the show via Twitter and Facebook.

Several times a year the show shakes things up by leaving the studio and taking to the road. A week long special from Los Angeles in which Erin and sports reporter Isaac showed viewers around Hollywood, Disneyland, Venice Beach and Sea World drew the show's highest ratings and demands for repeat showings. In the current season the show has recorded a week of celebratory Rugby World Cup specials from Eden Park in Auckland.

Now in its third successful year, the Erin Simpson Show has a 30 week on air production run - 150 episodes from February through October.

The Erin Simpson Show - fun, fashion and famous faces every weekday afternoon.
