TEN wins Tuesday

Ratings: MasterChef & NCIS push TEN to the top, on a night when rivals run weakened line-ups.

MasterChef Australia-Season 8-Episode53-0

TEN has been knocking on the door of the big boys ever since House Rules concluded, but beaten back by multichannel performances -last night it pushed Seven and Nine aside to win the night fair and square.

TEN pushed Nine into third place, on the back of MasterChef and NCIS at a time when there were weakened schedules elsewhere.

Neither Seven nor Nine could score an entertainment title above 800,000, with Home and Away the best for Seven. But Winners and Losers only just scraped in for third in its slot.

Nine’s line-up resembled a multichannel, although Britain’s Got Talent managed a small lift on last week.

TEN network won with 26.1% then Seven 24.8%, Nine 24.0%, ABC 16.5% and SBS 8.6%.

MasterChef Australia won its slot with 1.05m for TEN then NCIS (894,000) -its best numbers since 2012. The Project drew 712,000 / 496,00, NCIS: Los Angeles was 581,000 / 261,000 and TEN Eyewitness News was 501,000.

Seven News (1.19m / 1.12m) was #1 for Seven then Home and Away (774,000), Make You LOL (721,000), The Chase (709,000 / 453,000) and Winners and Losers (551,000). Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares was 230,000.

Nine News (1.07m / 966,000) was best for Nine followed by A Current Affair (845,000), Hot Seat (624,000), Britain’s Got Talent (621,000) and Movie: The Castle (331,000).

ABC News (842,000), 7:30 (662,000), Catalyst (552,000), How to Stay Young (530,000), Antiques Roadshow (323,000) and Foreign Correspondent (294,000) comprised ABC’s night.

On SBS it was Great Continental Railway Journeys (360,000), Insight (269,000), Dateline (204,000), Tour de France (172,000) and SBS World News (144,000).

7mate’s Outback Truckers topped multichannels with 273,000.

The Morning Show: 176,000 / 114,000
Today Extra: 161,000 / 101,000
Studio 10: 71,000 / 53,000

  1. SBS food network channel has got me hooked on cooking shows I am watching Masterchef and liking it this year well done ten but someone at TEN needs to fix its breakfast lineup seriously Ten needs a breakfast show and live news between 6am and 9am now that I am watching thru WIN television it’s breakfast offering is lamo.

  2. I think 7 are showing arrogance again, by holding content until the Olympics. 10 Deserve the wins! Either 9 have nothing up their sleeve besides the Block and are too being disrespectful to hold off content. A 2 week break wouldn’t hurt most brands! Not everyone watches sport!?

  3. I watched winners before NCIS last night because winners started 5 minutes earlier. Winners was ok. This episode was better than last week but its just not right. Cause its the last season will continue.

    It was a good final episode of NCIS. Cause I wasn’t watching it at the time Ziva (wasn’t a fan of her character) left I didn’t know what happened between them but seeing Tony as a daddy was nice. I also thought they did a good job of reminding viewers of what happened between them a few seasons back. This acted as a refresher for consistent viewers and it was a good way of explaining things for those viewers who might be new to the show or dipped in and out over the years. I’ve seen when other shows revisit major storylines that happened a few seasons ago do it quite poorly and expect people to remember things without flashbacks or proper explanations. Overall it was a different…

    1. Yeah, I never got into the Ziva thing either. Only watched it spasmodically when she appeared but came back to it when she left. I’ll miss “Tony” and also “Tony Senior”. Interesting to see how it goes next season.

  4. Congrats to Network Ten 🙂

    Been pushing to #1 for weeks now, only let down by multi-channels.

    MasterChef should have been around 1.2m (all things considered, but Ch 10 won’t care).

    NCIS near 900k… Astonishing.

    1. Of course Ten would care about Masterchef dropping more than 100k.
      That’s a massive decline considering its the only reality program in the slot.

  5. Can’t believe Seven thought there was anything “laugh”able about a toddler riding a bike down a hill, without a helmet, crashing head-first into a tree. youtube.com/watch?v=1Mo5JYUwXQs (Didn’t watch this crap, saw the clip in their promo).
    Well done again TEN, particularly winning the night overall with fewer channels than the others. Congratulations again. The scenery and settings in MasterChef – Wow.

    1. I’m not one for these laugh out loud programs, but what could be funnier than a little shit crashing head first into a tree on a bike!?!?!
      Masterchef is really hitting its stride this week amazing locale…. Now if only we can get rid of Matt this week… Im over it being The Matt Show and not Masterchef

      1. Matt has been the best and most consistent cook this season. I think a lot of people would stop watching if he doesn’t make it to the final.
