Awesome figures for Fisk, the switch to Sun night has paid off.
ABC need to entench it as an Australian drama scripted block
Haven’t they been doing that for the past half decade at least? All their Sunday offerings over the past few years certainly have me thinking it’s their prime day for new, scripted drama/comedy. So moving Fisk to Sunday did not surprise me at all.. it returned strong, more of the same, which is great… and Plum was just so excellent.
