At Seven, commonly stylised as @Seven, was a New Zealand comedy show where Petra Bagust and other comedians present the 'real news' from the last 24 hours from New Zealand and the rest of the world. The show replaced Campbell Live, a New Zealand current-affairs program for the Summer Holidays in 2009/2010 whilst Campbell Live took a break.^[1] @Seven finished for the 2009/2010 summer holiday break on the 22nd of January 2010 and was replaced with the normal TV3 7pm show, Campbell Live. @Seven did not return the following summer break instead TV3 screened re-runs of Modern Family.
