10 looks to be courting older viewers on Monday nights now with a combo of Wheel of Fortune and Matlock with star Kathy Bates.
While there are only a handful of WoF episodes it will be interesting to see how this tracks over the next few weeks and it could become a crowd-pleaser.
Seven screened Test Cricket until around 9pm AEDT last night at up to 589,000 viewers in National TV Audience but it was Nine that won Monday night.
7:30 led its slot with 720,000 then RBT (658,000), Australian Story (631,000) and Wheel of Fortune (485,000).
The Space Shuttle That Fell to Earth drew 522,000 then Matlock (461,000) and ACS: The Investigators (454,000).
Paul Barry’s penultimate Media Watch outranked 8:30 shows at 529,000.
Nine News was #1 at 1.24m. A Current Affair at 1.08m and Tipping Point (711,000) also won their slot. Love Island was 232,000. A Killer Makes a Call managed 307,000.
Seven News was 1.22m. A Murder in a Small Town was 249,000 with SWAT at 149,000.
ABC News drew 844,000. Hard Quiz (316,000), Q+A (270,000) and A Bite to Eat with Alice (146,000) followed.
The Project scored 319,000 for 10 then 10 News First (311,000), Deal or No Deal (250,000) and Five Bedrooms (161,000).

Tipping Point smashed it! Kudos to Nine, they know how to make world class trailers for what’s essentially a simple game show
Wheel of Fortune last night was awful. I much prefer the US version, shorter episodes and with much more prize money.
Gave Wheel of Fortune a shot as we like Norton. But found it mostly irritatingly repetitive.
Which is the nature of game shows, isn’t it? Won’t be recording the remaining four shows.
There was actually no cricket last night and will need re-coding, it was over by 6:30pm with telecast finishing on 7mate at 7pm, India ran away with it, in a very disappointing result for Australia, CA, Seven and Foxtel once again (including today’s Day 5 also gone). Hence Nine’s runaway win, no Chase also seemed to help their TP, 9News and ACA. Seven’s guides were also obviously incorrect and the filler shows very weak (Force, Motorway, Highway Cops).
Appreciate the extra context.
’10 chases older viewers ‘…I fit the category but not remotely interested in The Wheel.🙄
With the alarming ratings boost between Sunrise and Today, clearly, it’s time to ultimately put the nail in the coffin. How anyone watches that steaming pile of faecal matter on Nine is beyond me. No wonder Nine is eyeing Seven News talent since not only do they have a profusion of talent from both species, but they all love one another professionally and personally. Excellent work Sunrise.
Over 100k difference is very good, but from memory recently about 30k difference too. So these things ebb and flow. That said Sunrise clearly has the crown.
That is definitely the case Mr Knox, no two days are the same in the fickle world of ratings. The gym I go to has all the televisions set on Channel Nine. I’ve never been a Karl fan due to a plethora of reasons, but Sarah Abo is very hard to watch as she giggles inappropriately, behaves as though she is in a nightclub. I find Sarah Abo from Nine’s Today show and Amber Laidler from the Seven News team two people who lack the smarts of a polished journalist. My $0.02 anyway.
A nightclub? Dancing? Drinking? Brekkie TV must have really had a shake up….
🤣 I meant to say booping to the sound of music.
I actually enjoyed wheel of fortune. Loved watching it as a kid & still found myself yelling at the TV when the contestants kept getting the puzzles wrong.
