After MasterChef took a glorious 3.7m the week became not so much Seven's to win, but TEN's to lose. And it was a week when all three commercial networks unveiled new shows.
While the country held its breath on a $100m lotto, networks watched as their numbers stacked up in a routine order for Week 27. But some cities took a different view.
State of Origin powered to a record 2.28m viewers, helping Nine win the week. But TEN wins 3 key demo groups while ABC finished the week with its editorial tail between its legs.
