Block, Bachelorette bring the ratings drama.

With just 6 more weeks of survey remaining, Nine is hoping to clinch Total People this year (it’s hard to see how it will lose the Demos). But Seven is about to roll out some key titles as soon as The Block is over.

Nine scored another weekly win, but the interesting drama was happening over on TEN. After a dreadful start to the week (behind ABC on Sunday & Monday) it surged on Thursday to its best night of the year.
