10 have repeated Ambulance Aus so many times, many people probably didn’t realise it was new (as well as being smashed by strong competition)
agree, also repeats of repeats of Bondi Rescue & Territory Cops, hoping for some new eps…
Not in 2022.
Seven would be getting blasted by media for prime time audiences of only 400-500k metro vs 800-1m for Married, if it weren’t for Olympics. The shares and therefore wins (thanks to late night and the yawn of 6 o’clock news and Perth) is the only reason why they’re not.
I’m sure if you asked Nine, they’d be sitting back laughing, they would’ve forecast these two weeks a year ago. Tennis into Married has done its job wonderfully you’d have to say.
All I’m saying is, PyeongChang was doing 800k-1m Metro 4 years ago, plus an MKR that was also doing 1m (although against a Married that started doing 1m too).
You could argue though 10 and ABC affected by Married and Winter Olympics, with low-ish numbers for HQ, MAH and Ambulance.
Ouch the new episode of Ambulance Australia didn’t do to good sure it had stiff competition but still ouch
Maybe it was its own casualty taken to hospital !
