I’m finding Australian Tv at the moment so boring I just MasterChef junior would hurry up and start
I wonder how many FF episodes are left. I’ve been watching it on my DVR and enjoying it with my partner, some fun light entertainment.
I’m sure MC kids starts soon, presuming that’s Sun, Mon and Tue then Bacholorette Wed and Thurs. Does anyone know the dates all 10 ads say coming soon?
Good to see Drunk History retaining much of HYBPA?’s audience though…Family Feud needs to go (possibly to Thursdays?) though.
HYBPA has cemented itself l think l would try it at a 7.30pm start time. 10 has nothing to loose. The language may be an issue for the timeslot but thats easily (bleeeeeep) rectified.
Interesting suggestion, but the problem is it would be bounced around the schedule when things like MasterChef and Masked Singer are in play.
No MS lead in also a one off Monday AFl game against HYBPA. Suggest a lot would view via catch up
Family Feud is absolutely destroying HYBPA lead-in. What a disappointment for it’s 200th episode. I got stuck watching the last 5 minutes of FF due to it running overtime – it is clear why it’s lacking viewers.
I don’t understand the endless repeats of Mastermind if no-one is watching it.
Filler only-pretty obviously.
I am confounded that 10 proceeded to air Family Feud on Monday. What a stinker of a night.
David, do you know what audience was for Family Feud? Did this poor lead-in drag down HYBPA?
