2017 Ratings Predictions

I hope Seven can finally have another hit with something and not just because of my love affair with them. They’ve been copping so much slack lately and The Grand Tour actually does look like a decent show after ‘Top Gear’ so I just hope it won’t be another bloodbath to them again come tomorrow morning at the hands of Nine’s warpath show I will not mention the name of…

Terminator Genysis (movie premiere): 425k

Thursday October 19
The Bachelorette 0.95m
Gogglebox 0.83m (could set a new FTA audience record tonight)

Home and Away triple episode 0.61m
Movie: Terminator Genisys premiere 0.45m

RBT rpt 0.55m
Movie: We’re the Millers rpt 0.43m

It doesn’t start until 9:11pm tonight (unfortunately), so I doubt it.

Ten will have a massive win, with the highly-anticpiated Bachelorette finale + Gogglebox.

ABC should be somewhat competitive, off the back of The Ex-PM’s return.
