The Cricket’s on, the ratings season wraps tomorrow, as the Billy Thorpe song tells us, “It’s almost Summer…”
Nine’s Cricket coverage drew a strong crowd on an otherwise-quiet Thursday, as high as 948,000 viewers, which will help as final numbers are frantically being tallied for the finish line at midnight tomorrow.
Seven News and ABC News both won their timeslots, with Home and Away the top entertainment offering on 644,000 viewers.
The Project led for TEN on a quiet evening, and the SBS food night was equally soft.

Great photo.
Quite an epic Survivor series by the way, can hardly keep up with the alliances, blindsides and general game play!
Watched SBS2 last night for the first time since it went feral. Did not appreciate the large (and irrelevant) “Viceland” bug over my European football.
Actually put my book down and paid attention to one of the Viceland promos during an ad break. Was not one new thing that I thought I’d like to see more of.
Agree. I used to watch the occasional series (notably 12 Monkeys) but now there seems to be absolutely nothing worth my time.
The cricket was great last night. The revised commentary team was excellent, perhaps would be better without Michael Slater though. Great vision in HD. All sport should be in HD.
