I wonder if Seven could win tonight against NRL but without the AFL?
We’ve seen it happen on multiple Thursdays in previous years just with news, triple H&A and Front Bar. With the advantage of Anzac Day AFL lead-in and 6pm News (both will be massive)
Early predications for next week:
House Rules 700k
MKR 850k
Lego Masters 1.1
Masterchef 800k - then to around 600-700k
Predictions for 28 April 2019
MKR GF - 1.04m
LEGO Masters - 813k
Bachelor in Paradise - 566k
Predictions for 29 April 2019
House rules - 767k
LEGO masters - 799k
Masterchef Australia - 787k
(I don’t want to be too serious about LEGO masters but I feel that the voice will fall dramatically this year and will get smashed by Masterchef and house rules.
I shouldn’t have just wondered, should’ve emphatically predicted it!
Sunday April 28
Lego Masters will be huge tonight. MKR will post its lowest grand final ratings ever.
Lego Masters series premiere 1.65m
60 Minutes 0.92m
House Rules season premiere 0.95m
My Kitchen Rules grand final 0.81m
My Kitchen Rules winner announced 0.84m
Bachelor in Paradise 0.35m
Ninja Warrior S1 and Married territory? Hmm, not sure.
It should at least rate very well on first episode though, all that promotion including during Married.
Though Nine’s very weak last 2 weeks may affect things.
According to Fetch Lego Masters is well ahead of MKR and Paradise.
