Honestly, there wasn’t a lot going on, except for THE HANDMAID’S TALE which continues to do massive Total TV numbers.
A Current Affair (554,000) continues its weekly decline for Nine yet still wins the slot. RBT (402,000) gets bumped into second because of Gogglebox Australia. After that, the evening’s medical drama wins its slots easily – Paramedics (397,000), A+E After Dark (225,000), and New Amsterdam (48,000).
Nine first in primary (20.6%) and second in network (28.4%) rankings.
Home & Away (428,000 7pm; 364,000 7:30pm-8:30pm Late) is starting to look like diminishing returns for the Network, however a quad repeat of Kath & Kim (247,000; 212,000; 183,000; 130,000) does even less, so… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
Seven second in primary (19.1%) and first in network (28.6%) rankings.
10 have stuck with The Project (181,000 6:30pm; 268,000 7pm) to no avail, however Gogglebox Australia (493,000) in primetime delivers them a much needed win…especially because The Real Love Boat Australia (169,000) still isn’t doing great (though it did lift reasonably on Wednesday’s ep). Repeats of The Cheap Seats (92,000) and Blue Bloods (58,000) fill out the evening.
10 third in both primary (11.7%) and network (18.1%) rankings.
Budget 2022/23: Opposition Reply (285,000) coupled with 7:30 (215,000) draws in a small audience for the ABC that affects Q+A (197,000), slipping to another very low figure (only a few more eps on Thursday to go). The Boyer Lecture (105,000) retains a smaller audience than that, before flipping to repeats of Spying on the Scammers (82,000) and Fightback Farmers (32,000).
ABC fourth in both primary (10.1%) and network (16.3%) rankings.
Dishing it Up (76,000) and Guillaume’s Paris (64,000) make for a very light start for SBS, however it picks up a little with World’s Most Scenic Railway Journeys (107,000) then drops again for the first run linear broadcast of The Handmaid’s Tale (65,000) (this drama is doing massive catch up business for the Network).
SBS fifth in both primary (3.8%) and network (8.6%) rankings.
