Sunday was a current affairs programme broadcast on TVNZ 1 in New Zealand on Sunday nights at 7:30 pm. 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 "Where there's a story we'll find it". Last episode, 12th May 2024.

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.[1] In May 2014, the show returned to an hour time slot.[2]

In March 2024 it was proposed that Sunday will be ending the following May due to a controversial and widely opposed restructure at TVNZ.[3] In April 2024 this news was confirmed with the last programme scheduled to release on May 12.
