As the end of the experiment approaches, Married At First Sight last night featured The Final Test that averaged 1.82m which was up from last week’s comparatively low 1.776m.

On Seven, Australian Idol selected its top 6 with a rating of 910k compared to 922k last Monday.

Over on 10, the tribe has spoken again with 431k watching Australian Survivor up from both 403k a week ago and 423k on Sunday.

ABC’s big night of factuals got underway where Australian Story lifted to almost 800k up from 600k. Four Corners then gained 40k to 666k. Later, Media Watch was up 40k to 680k and Planet America did good numbers for its time with 586k.

Seven slotted in a special news bulletin following Idol, pre-empting the rest of the schedule by 30 minutes. It did well to get 482k . However, that impacted 9-1-1 that dropped almost 100k to 330k.

For Nine, 100% Footy in NRL territory had 245k while 233k enjoyed Footy Classified in AFL markets. Both rated higher than last week. A Gogglebox encore on 10 also made the top 30 up slightly to 212k.

On a big day for news Seven had the edge at 6pm with 1.529m, the highest rated bulletin since January while Nine News had 1.463m. A Current Affair was then on top at 7pm with 1.268m ahead of ABC News on +1.1million for its highest rating of the year. Home and Away did well to be the top scripted show of the day also over one million compared to 987k last Monday. At 5pm Tipping Point topped 800k for the first time this year.

Breakfast TV had Sunrise with 423k to be ahead of Today by 316k.

Well for once, News+ managed to get a slice of the bump in ratings yesterday also.

14

If only the News on Seven, Nine and the ABC got those numbers most nights of the week…

The 30-minute Seven News Special after Idol did well too.

The Agenda Setters NRL did “okay” in the two cities - and at a later timeslot. Will see if will reach 100k though in weeks to come.

ABC should just extend their programs on Mondays to fill time until 10:30pm since they all rate so well.

Wouldn’t it be smarter to run:

  • 8:00pm – Australian Story
  • 8:30pm – Four Corners
  • 9:30pm – Media Watch
  • 9:50pm – Planet America
  • 10:30pm – Late News
16

Hot Seat is dead…. Those figures are woeful at 7pm.

Some impressive news figures, perhaps not surprisingly, yesterday, ABC News Melbourne the standout.

Also looks like the Michael Usher and Mike Amor bulletin pre emption paid off.

Big number for TP. Chase only saved by also being better than usual, over 600k and not a 200k+ margin, but that’s secondary to its rival’s 800k and metro dominance especially Melbourne and Brisbane.
