Today pips Sunrise

Thursday was a good day for the Today show which had a rare win over Sunrise.

today lisa karlThursday was a good day for the Today show which had a rare win over Sunrise.

Nine’s show took 347,000, just edging ahead of Seven’s on 340,000.

While Sydney preferred Sunrise, Melbourne went to Today (by a significant margin) as did Brissy. Adelaide and Perth stuck with Seven.

Just 24 hours earlier it was a different story: Sunrise had 391,000 while Today had 288,000. On most days, Seven’s show averages around 70,000 ahead of its rival, but Nine continues to gain ground, including on Sundays.

The brekkie war continues to be good news for viewers. We all benefit when programmes are kept on their toes -except when they try stupid stunts.

And for the record, ABC News Breakfast is also offering an alternative wake-up to the day on ABC2 too, hosted by Virginia Trioli and Joe O’Brien.

Week 31

  1. I have found Mel and Kochie seem be a little bit over each other and Mel seems bored. She is a great reporter live from various locations like the mining tradgedy but look like she is over the whole studio thing. Lisa, however looks like she thrives on it and brings out the best in her co-host. I think they will pip them regularly soon.

  2. Ok, I live in the United States and just let me tell you that your version of the Today show is fantastic compared to ours. The hosts – Lisa, Karl, Cameron and Georgie are just a pleasure to watch and the funny moments are just hilarious. Keep up the good work – it’s really an awesome show. As for Sunrise – yuk!!!!

    Good luck Today – what an awesome team.

  3. i reckon this is signe of things to come. kocjie, mel, berretts and nat have been there a long time and the show is really getting old and stale. kochie thinks he is the funniest bloke in the world and he clearly isnt. mel i would keep on and nat. they are good for that show. the rest are hopeless
