Nine’s brick-building reality show pushes towards its finale next week as Networks struggle to attract audiences to their primary product(s).
Channel 9
A decent night for Nine, kicking off with the almost-always winning A Current Affair (605,000) taking 7pm, and Lego Masters Australia: Grand Masters (486,000) bringing home a win on a Farmer-free evening. David Attenborough’s Frozen Planet II (254,000) maintains their winning ways, as Chicago Med (61,000) finishes out the schedule.
Nine first in primary (20.1%) and second in network (28.5%) rankings.
Channel 7
Seven finding Home & Away (472,000) their best by a long way for the night, with the special Cosentino: Decennium (337,000) clawing in a reasonable though third-placed audience. A double new ep of The Good Doctor (150,000; 109,000) will likely pick up with Total TV numbers next week.
Seven second in primary (19.5%) and first in network (28.6%) rankings.
ABC
7:30 (449,000) and the season finale of Great Australian Stuff (330,000) land in second in primetime for the ABC, welcoming The Truth about Menopause with Myf Warhurst (224,000) afterwards. Repeats of Stuff the British Stole (113,000) and Four Corners (41,000) fill out the late night.
ABC third in both primary (12.9%) and network (18.2%) rankings.
SBS
The premiere of Who Do You Think You Are? Australia (334,000) lands well for SBS because it featured Barry Humphries in his last televised outing. Insight (168,000) and Dateline (97,000) hold their usual audiences.
SBS fourth in primary (7.2%) and fifth in network (11%) rankings.
Channel 10
10 get a reasonable start from The Project (223,000 6:30pm; 286,000 7pm) however the placeholder programming of The Bridge Australia (109,000) is struggling. New and repeat eps of NCIS (113,000; 89,000) maintain their base.
10 fifth in primary (7.1%) and fourth in network (13.8%) rankings.
