Why is this site showing nine has 28.2 share yet on the daily ratings site is showing 26.9?
Good question. OzTAM sent some incorrect info this morning, so this page was actually right. I have now updated the shares on the daily overnights table. Thanks for pointing out.
Celeb has been fairly entertaining. Not sure if it has done Keira any favours. Once Celeb has gone its back to the streaming services for us until MasterChef. The rest of the fta line ups have minimal appeal
Why do Seven insist on showing movie-length episodes of Home & Away? 90 minutes is too long.
It’s odd isn’t it? They had 2 hrs the other week! Maybe they should work everybody less if they are so far ahead.
There are several reasons for movie length episodes of Home and Away nearly every week, including Thursday night AFL on five weeks from late May to late June (meaning H&A will be pre-empted in Melbourne and Adelaide in most cases), and Seven’s obligation to provide five episodes of the soap per week to British broadcaster Five for most of the year, so Seven has to ensure Australian broadcast is ahead of the UK.
Thanks, and BH&G sponsor obligations.
The ABC has been getting smashed in primetime pretty much every night since the ratings period started this year. News, current affairs, factual, entertainment and drama have all been down on previous years. There will be some worried bods at Aunty.
Some share wins over TEN, and a nice win for Midsomer Murders, but I concur the 3 reality shows are swamping them.
Gee, those ratings for Newton’s Law are pretty bad. Do you think it will get another series David?
Too early to know. ABC needs to see Timeshifted and iview numbers once the series wraps.
Newton’s Law…more like Newton’s Bore.
I don’t mind newtons law. How are you finding it?
I was watching gogglebox and saw the eighties episode on music, thought it looked good, stopped watching gogglebox and went to watch the eighties.
