Seven win with AFL Thursday to Saturday with big margins so don’t see it happening
With that extra night of ‘The Voice’ this week, it’s going to be interesting to see if 9 can snatch back a week from 7. I think it will be quite close.
Well I enjoyed American idol last night
Was funny and touching
Katy Perry gets a lot of hate of late
But her new song daises is actually a bop
I will follow it to channel go on Thursday nights
If I remember 😃😃
Insight was very emotional but uplifting. Marc Fennell is a great host.
Big Brother almost beating The Voice. Interesting…
Yep and it’s pulling in the younger Demographics which The Voice isn’t, sure 2nd to Masterchef in the 16-39 demo by 78,000 however with no sign of The Voice in the Top 5 (all 3), it may catch-up to The Voice soon.
Voice numbers always drop off after the blinds and continue to lose numbers as it gets to the end. Will it be on next year ??
I would be pretty confident of 2021.
The Voice dropping to BB levels
More like American Idle with those numbers , off to GO with you soon.
Could almost replace The Voice with the way those ratings are haemorrhaging lately!
Nah it still came in 9th even if third to the other 7:30pm shows, the rest was all News and last week (The Voice wasn’t on) Paramedics only pulled 546,000 so Nine have nothing else that will get to that 703,000 mark anyway.
Obviously somehow or other I misread the post and this one makes no sense as it doesn’t go with it.
Tonight’s episode of American Idol is screening on 9Go due to NRL coverage on the main channel. Maybe only in NRL dominate states.
