The start of Friends and Family Week on Married At First Sight drew another big audience for Nine with an average 1.858m tuning in down slightly from the previous Monday’s 1.866m. That helped Nine to another big win.

Australian Idol’s Top 30 had 826k for Seven which was up from 762k last week and continued the upward trend seen on Sunday.

Australian Survivor had 446k for 10 after last week’s premiere had 464k. 10 will be somewhat relieved after the show had dropped to 365k by Wednesday last week. However, the simulcast across multichannels saw the shares for those channels collapse and the network share drop to single figures.

On ABC, Diabolical: The Epstein Files aired from 8pm in place of Australian Story and Four Corners and did well with 780k on par with Australian Story the previous week. It was partially up against Epstein: Making Of A Monster on Nine that also did well to get 766k.

A News Special aired on Seven with 456k while 9-1-1 that followed was pushed back 35 minutes and dropped 100k to a season low 214k while Matlock on 10 had just 143k.

Later for ABC, Media Watch was up 70k to 669k while Planet America lifted 75k to 623k. Also covering the Iran War 9News Late got some good numbers with 464k.

News numbers continued to edge higher with Seven News ahead at 6pm by just 7k., both up by about 80k on last Monday. At 5pm Tipping Point had 761k for a 88k lead over The Chase.

A Current Affair won at 7pm with another +1 million result to be ahead of ABC News that also topped one million and Home and Away with 945k. Millionaire Hot Seat averaged 271k for 10.

At breakfast all shows lifted with Sunrise was up to 457k, Today on 340k and News Breakfast improved to 286k.

Note: MAFS was incorrectly coded as Sunday - have adjusted most instances.

Similar audiences for the Epstein specials. The war continues to lift all the news broadcasts.

Even 456k for the Seven special. Too bad we don’t get to see what the audience is like for ABCNC.

Survivor unusually spiked back, must be the “halo” effect off that Asian Cup match… or all those encore airings over the weekend.

Does that Survivor number include the people who watched on their multi-channels as well? As it was simulcast across 10 channels at 7:30

Yes. And we don’t know exactly the audience by channel.

Both Epstein documentaries rated quite well, but Nine’s version had a bigger reach and BVOD rating due to the lead-in from MAFS.

Shows you how information-hungry the FTA audience is.

Only 7 seized on the opportunity to deliver an evening special. 9 has a late bulletin, but not really all in.

ABCNC, while not perfect by any stretch, has served enough of what viewers need.

It’s a strategy I’ve never understood. Airing Survivor over 3 channels effectively puts the ratings for 10 Bold and 10 Comedy during the simulcast at 0 and cannibalises network shares as a result. The usual 120,000 or so that would normally watch Friends, Big Bang, NCIS, etc are forced to go somewhere else. Survivor did no better than it would have been expected to do last night, while 10 lost a lot of multi channel viewers as a result of the simulcast.
