Sunday first premiered in 2002. Executive producer Jane Skinner served as the producer for the first programme.[1] Presented by Miriama Kamo with a team of New Zealand reporters, the programme began when TV ONE did not renew its rights to 60 Minutes which had aired previously in this time slot. The hour-long show usually features two reports from the local reporters and one report from an overseas current affairs programme. The programme's tagline is "Join Miriama Kamo and the team as they delve into the subjects that matter to you".[2]
In 2012, the show was reduced to half an hour and moved to a new time slot of 7.00pm due to the New Zealand's Got Talent series. TVNZ also reviewed the future of the show.[3] In May 2014, the show returned to an hour time slot.[4]
In March 2024 it was proposed that Sunday will be ending the following May due to a controversial and widely opposed restructure at TVNZ.[5]
On 9 April 2024 this closure was confirmed with the last programme scheduled to release on 12 May.[6] Sunday aired its final programme on 12 May.[1] The final episode carried tributes from several former guests including Dame Lynda Topp. Several members of the Sunday team including presenter Miriama Kamo also appeared in the final episode to share their memories.[7]
