ADS-10 began as ADS-7 on 24 October1959, before being owned by those affiliated with the Ten Network. On 27 December, 1987, ADS-7 and SAS-10 (owned by Seven Network affiliate TVW-7 Perth) switched affiliations, ADS moving to channel 10, SAS moving to channel 7. In July 2007 ADS-10 moved from its original location in Strangways Tce, North Adelaide to a new studio in Hutt Street, Adelaide.
Popular television shows made during the ADS-7 era include children’s shows Cartoon Connection, KO (Kids Only), and later as ADS-10 the national pre-school program "Mulligrubs". Music shows included Music Express (1975 - 1986) and Nightshift. Popular variety shows included The Penthouse Club and the weekday morning show Lionel William\'s Woman\'s World. The local current affairs show "State Affair" which aired weeknights at 6:30 following the news, featured stories about South Australia and its people. From 1967 to 1986 the Easter Appeal telethon was held each year to raise money for the Adelaide Children\'s Hospital. ADS 7 also broadcast the SANFL local football matches for many years.
The popular television game show Wheel of Fortune originally commenced recording in studio 1 at ADS-7 in July 1981 then after the changeover to SAS-7 in December 1987 moved to their studios where it remained until July 1996 when the show moved to ATN-7 Sydney where it lasted until its cancellation in 2006.
Note: During the AFL season Ten News is presented by George Donikian in Melbourne and Adelaide on Saturday nights at 6:00pm, as well as a local edition of Sports Tonight. On Sunday Ten News is presented by Bill Woods at TEN-10
Note: Ten News Adelaide\'s Presenters actually broadcast from Melbourne\'s ATV-10, to save on costs. Sport and the weather are still from the Adelaide studio. This has been done since 2000.
