Being a Saturday and with the Aus Open including two Aussie Men… Nine will kill the ratings for sure.

I think because of this and this reason only that the new I’m A Celebrity extra episode will find it very tough going?

David · January 19, 2019, 4:53am

I also don’t think it’s had enough promotion as it’s own separate program to be honest for people to realise it’s a new episode. It’s Saturday night and it’s notorious for networks to repeat their realities on this night.

Wednesday

Nine of course to dominate prime time.

I disagree about day time, I didn’t even know it was on, the Raonic vs Pouille tennis final has been good too, another upset brewing right into 6pm with a tie break…

Aus Open prime time: 775k

I’m A Celebrity: 725k

BBL: 400k

Sully · January 23, 2019, 11:46pm

Thursday

Very competitive nights (and days) ahead, Aus Open finals, Day night cricket test and BBL cricket. I still think Nine will win however…

Aus Open prime time (semi with Nadal): 825k

I’m A Celebrity: 675k

Test cricket prime time: 575k

BBL cricket late: 275k

JohnsonTV · January 24, 2019, 3:09am

Thursday January 24
Seven is desperate that the day/night test will be more competitive against the tennis than the BBL.

Australia v Sri Lanka, 1st test:
session 1: 0.32m, session 2: 0.44m, session 3: 0.67m

The Conners 0.25m / 0.23m

Sully · January 25, 2019, 3:14am

Friday

Much the same as last night, though numbers will be higher with tomorrow not being a weekday and Seven’s shares will be down with no late BBL. If Djokovic match is a good one, expect big ratings for Nine (who should win easily anyway)…

Aus Open prime time: 850k

Test cricket prime time: 650k

Living Room: 450k

Super_SC · January 25, 2019, 5:09am

Friday
Nine will deliver a bigger share than yesterday thanks to the tennis. If the tennis match goes for more than 3 hours, expect nine to triple 10’s figures for tonight.

Saturday January 26 (Australia Day)
Seven will dominate the day with the WBBL final (hope it will be a great game) and first two sessions of the Gabba test. Nine will win the night with the tennis although it will struggle to get one million viewers.

Saturday

Well, last year I got my prediction way off, even though it was a fantastic women final and some fresh faces between Wozniacki and Halep, I thunk tonight can still get 1m if a great match and Nine will win big…

Aus Open womens final: 1m

Test cricket prime time: 530k

Saturday Schoolies: 225k

JohnsonTV · January 26, 2019, 11:02pm

Sunday January 27
Nine’s first-time coverage of Australian Open will end with a bang. The Djokovic-Nadal clash is a promoter’s dream, it will get a massive audience although it won’t be as big as their last AO final encounter in 2012 which turned into a six-hour epic.

Australian Open 2019:
day 14 0.31m
night 14 (men’s singles final) 1.74m
night 14 post-match presentations 1.52m

BBL: Stars v Heat session 1: 0.39m, session 2 0.43m

I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here 0.63m
NCIS rpt 0.28m / 0.27m
