Every network finding it difficult to find a crack in Nine’s ratings dominance.
Channel 9
The success train for Nine continues to roll on, with A Current Affair (712,000) leading at 7pm and building into another massive night-winning episode of Married At First Sight (885,000). Big Miracles (405,000) is solid straight after, winning its slot, as New Amsterdam (81,000) and repeat of The Equalizer (46,000) complete their offering.
Nine first in both primary (26.1%) and network (32.6%) rankings.
Channel 7
Home & Away (496,000) remains consistent for Seven, as does Australian Idol (422,000) though its consistency is proving to be fourth place in primetime. Starstruck (177,000) is doing little for the network, before pivoting into late night repeats of Australia: Now and Then (99,000) and Busted in Bangkok (35,000).
Seven second in both primary (16.9%) and network (25.2%) rankings.
ABC
7:30 (486,000) and the return of Australian Story (464,000) kick off a big night for the ABC. Four Corners (339,000), Media Watch (387,000), and Q+A (212,000) follow suit (though Q+A still struggles), before the night finishes out with China Tonight (75,000).
ABC third in both primary (13.1%) and network (16.9%) rankings.
Channel 10
Another curious night for 10, with The Project (169,000 6:30pm; 278,000 7pm) leading with what will be its best for the week, and Australian Survivor (474,000) winning in its struggle with Idol for third place. The new season of Would I Lie To You? Australia (217,000) is still ticking along though finding a solid audience remains tough. Repeats of The Montreal Comedy Festival: Pride Gala (68,000) and FBI: Most Wanted (34,000) fill out the schedule.
10 fourth in both primary (11.3%) and network (17.8%) rankings.
SBS
A slow Monday for SBS again, starting with Planet Reef (58,000), and following into Monster: The Mystery of Loch Ness (95,000) and Secrets of Playboy (61,000).
SBS fifth in both primary (3.3%) and network (7.4%) rankings.
