TEN’s recent ratings success has already been usurped by the ABC, thanks largely to the return of Gruen at the same time as MasterChef departed.
ABC pipped TEN by just 0.2% to nab the third-placed network last week.
But it was Seven’s first taste of Olympics that delivered it a stellar 46.3% network share on Saturday -and that’s before full competition gets underway. The Live Opening Ceremony on Saturday morning was the #1 show of the week.
