Programming
Access 31 had broadcast a number of popular local programs including Wake Up! WA, a breakfast show broadcast live daily; WAFL On, which focused on the West Australian Football League; Charlie's Kitchen, a cooking show; Sweet and Sour, a discussion panel program; and The Couch, a chat/variety show that also features live performances from up and coming local musicians. The station also carried a number of programs originally produced at other Channel 31 stations in other states.
Access 31 also had broadcast old movies, classic television shows and programming and current news bulletins sourced from Deutsche Welle, Voice of America and BBC World News.
After its closure, a small number of Access 31's locally produced shows secured broadcast slots on Foxtel's Aurora Community Channel. A number of shows previously broadcast by Access 31 also now feature on successor channel West TV.

Famous quotes containing the word programming:
“If there is a price to pay for the privilege of spending the early years of child rearing in the driver’s seat, it is our reluctance, our inability, to tolerate being demoted to the backseat. Spurred by our success in programming our children during the preschool years, we may find it difficult to forgo in later states the level of control that once afforded us so much satisfaction.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
