What are YOU watching instead of FTA? Me? Wednesdays are all about Gogglebox Australia and Mad As Hell for me…
A Current Affair (578,000) in holiday mode though still the biggest thing at 7pm. Travel Guides (665,000) takes primetime by a huge margin, leaving a repeat of MOVIE: Crocodile Dundee II (274,000) nothing to do but not have aged well (“You know who that was? Crint Eastwood!”).
Nine first in both primary (22%) and network (31.1%) rankings.
Seven’s best again was Home & Away (489,000), and it did all the heavy lifting for the night. Billy Connolly: My Absolute Pleasure (312,000) was a beautiful visit with the Big Yin (perhaps our last). Turns out the audience did not care for America’s Got Talent Extreme (80,000), while Melbourne very cared about The Front Bar (269,000), making up 64% of its audience…both were bounced around in the scheduled depending on the city’s AFL-watching status.
Seven second in both primary (17.9%) and network (25.4%) rankings.
ABC’s Wednesday has a strong start with the 7:30 (497,000)/Hard Quiz (563,000) double coming in a strong second place in primetime. Shaun Micallef’s Mad As Hell (473,000) and Tomorrow Tonight (282,000) are both down, while the MICF AllStars SuperShow (174,000) secures a parochial audience for linear broadcast.
ABC fourth in both primary (14.1%) and network (18.6%) rankings.
If The Project (204,000 6:30pm; 304,000 7pm) isn’t in holiday mode it should be. With these numbers they could play repeats and get similar numbers (would anyone notice?). A double repeat Ambulance Australia (255,000; 278,000) offers a unique situation where the second repeat rates higher than the first(!). New Bull (152,000) and This Is Us (47,000) fill out the late night for fans.
10 third in both primary (9.5%) and network (16.5%) rankings.
SBS’s night was ever thus: Tony Robinson’s Coast to Coast (135,000), The Rise of the Nazis (133,000), and The Responder (43,000).
SBS fifth in both primary (4.4%) and network (8.3%) rankings.
