Sunday February 11
Nine needs Chopper to rate especially after another mini series Hoges pulled moderate figures last year. Chopper won’t get 1 million but will beat Winter Olympics.
My Kitchen Rules 1.19m
Winter Olympics day 2 night 0.71m
Married at First Sight 0.93m
Underbelly Files: Chopper part 1 0.81m
The Sunday Project 0.34m / 0.45m
I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here 0.75m
SEAL Team 0.39m
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…
No. 1 network: Seven
No. 1 main channel: Ch 7
•Married At First Sight: 1.13m
•My Kitchen Rules: 1.12m
•Pyeongchang Winter Olympics (Night 4): 975k
•I’m A Celebrity: 675k
•Hughesy We Have A Problem: 450k
•Date Night: 350k
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…
Thursday February 15
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.
My Kitchen Rules 1.1m
Winter Olympics night 6 0.74m
Winter Olympics night 6 late 0.47m
AFLX launch 0.17m (7TWO)
RBT 0.54m
Movie: Point Break (2016) premiere 0.43m
I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here 0.53m
Gogglebox 0.68m
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…
No. 1 network: Seven

Sunday February 18
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.
