When the show first began in 1988, it aired at 5:30 pm in Adelaide, at 6:00 pm in Melbourne and Sydney, at 6:30 pm in Brisbane, and at 7:00 pm in Perth. In January 1992, Seven moved "Home and Away" to the 7:00 pm timeslot across the network. On 3 November 2009, 7Two began airing repeat episodes of the show from the very beginning at 9:30 am, before moving to 9:00 am. Since its premiere, the show had been screened as a 22-minute episode each weeknight. However, beginning in March 2013, "Better Homes and Gardens" began replacing "Home and Away" on Fridays to make way for Seven's AFL coverage. Friday's episodes of "Home and Away" now air on Thursdays at 7:30 pm. As of 2018, "Home and Away" currently airs sporadically, with episodes consisting from four to six episodes per week.
