Well considering its almost impossible to watch overseas drama on commercial FTA TV in a primetime slot seeing as its nearly all wall-to-wall reality I wouldn’t too carried away with the whole quaint Aussie drama is better than overseas drama stuff. And what about the bajillion viewers whom were streaming drama online/DVD or catching up with PVRs and viewing drama by other sources? Those rating numbers look pretty low to me if anything – Offspring/Lovechild and Winners and Losers have been flogged relentlessly on their respective networks and only managed around 700K.
Great to see local drama ahead of international ones. Five of the top 7 dramas are local? Nice.
