As the tale will go the next couple of weeks, Seven will absolutely dominate yet again.

Albeit MKR & Married look like they’ll continue to be tight. The former back to 90min, so it’ll lift a tad.

Nine & Ten’s post 9pm shows will crash and burn hard (shame for Hughesy), mainly due to Olympics…

AFLX debuts tonight on 7Two, who knows how it’ll do, but as with AFLW’s launch last year (albeit this hasn’t been promoted as much), there should be a lot of initial interest.

Otherwise Seven will cream the night again thanks to MKR (against little competition tonight) and the Winter Olympics…

The debut of AFLX should rate well (by multichannel standards) given the curiosity factor. Seven will win the night easily with the combo of MKR/Winter Olympics/AFLX.

Friday the 16th of February 2018

Seven will dominate the night again, thanks to Winter Olympics (and BHG).

Which will affect all other networks again, but with no MKR and 9Go! share will be well above 2% for the first time in days, the margin will be a bit closer.

Rugby League will flop in Melbourne on main channel…

Saturday the 17th of February 2018

Winter Olympics will again bring it home for Seven, their main channel will be massive, otherwise a fairly quiet night.

Premiere of Blue Planet II should rate very well on Ch 9, but the rest of their night will bomb.

Seven’s multi-channels will be well down, 9Go! will have its best audience of the week.

Ten will be well below 10% again, possibly 5%, absolutely awful, sadly…

After a massive win for the first official ratings week (total people AND key demos), Seven will continue that form, thanks to the Winter Olympics.

But Married should nudge out MKR again.

Seven will continue its winning streak on the back of Winter Olympics, but Married at First Sight will beat MKR again. The return of NCIS to its old Sunday timeslot will be a flop.
