I like Shaun Micallef’s Brain Eisteddfod …not sure it is a good lead in for Gogglebox though….I wish they had left it on Wed….I now miss Ghosts as I dont watch The Mask…and Ghosts is awful to watch on 10play.
Didn’t even know Gogglebox was back.
I gave it quite a bit of coverage, but can’t make people turn on!
Thought the new household were a good addition to Gogglebox. Strange that they didn’t mention Nick and Milo being in a new house or different space than normal. Used to be able to see through to the kitchen area. The tribute to Di was so nice that I chose to rewind it and watch that part again.
I loved that Lee wore blue eye shadow for Di…made me smile.
Hi David, any final tally on Neighbours Total Tv numbers now with +28. I can see it was just under the million for metro
Not a big change. 873k metro overnight > 978k 7 days > 988k 28 days. So I would add another 10k to the previous Total TV number.
The Cook Up rated much higher last night. Wonder if the appearance of Maggie Beer as guest cook had anything to do with that.
Interesting that two popular AFL teams, Collingwood and Carlton, could only draw 118,000 viewers for 7. Channel 7 must be very disappointed.
The last Thursday night AFL match, on 7 July, drew 437,000.
I think this demonstrates the reason for the pay differential between AFL and AFLW players.
Suggest the majority of the 118,000 were from Melbourne. Only a one off on main channel due to AFL bye. Garantee will be on Sevens multi channel next week with those numbers
What will be interesting will be AFLW rounds 6 to 10. These games will be played when there is no AFL (men’s) games like last night. Will Channel 7 have AFLW on its main channel in Melbourne on Thurs/Fri or Sat night? I’m betting we’ll see Pretty Woman or Die Hard 3 instead
Lazy programming delivers for Seven last night, a repeat of Crime Investigation I’d seen a few months ago. Surprised the numbers weren’t lower. They probably would’ve got higher numbers putting the Devil Wears Prada on for the 100th time.
Thursday nights really are becoming a dead zone for TV.
You’re not likely to get first run when there is sport leading to split-city programming. Unless maybe another Britain’s Got Talent.
