  1. Ok, can someone explain to me that if AFL is Ten’s best performer why they’re getting rid of it off the network for 2012. It’s not like there’s going to be something else to replace it that’s going to outrate it.

  2. Lol at TEN! Is there anything worth watching on any of their 3 channels? You get the idea that they’re better off simply turning off the lights and shutting the network down. Well done David Mott. Great strategy.

  3. Wow. Seven is really flying at the moment. Nothing they do is going wrong. They are just the dominant network now. I don’t even think an Olympic stint is going to get Nine over the line next year and Big Brother? Seriously? No way. It will probably do gangbusters now i said that but it got awful. I am a fan of it but i was a fan of the early few seasons. After the year Reggie won i pretty much didn’t like it anymore.

  4. @MillerT1, yep that figure is impressive, but not unexpected. Just think what Seven’s share would’ve been if the Rugby League finals hadn’t been on Sat night.

    Usually the RL finals would prop up Nine’s chances of winning the week, but even that won’t help.

  5. So Top Gear didn’t even make the top 100 shows, no surprise here. And in the end Seven easily beat Nine. Will they have any luck with Charlies Angles or the other new shows they are promising to be ‘coming soon’?
