A great Monday result for Seven with a main channel share higher than competitor’s network shares helped by 7Mate’s 7.3% share courtesy of AFL. Seven won all markets including Perth where 7Mate was the number one channel.

Seven was a leader at 6pm and then 7.30 with Seven News and The Voice.

The Voice was an easy winner with over 1.1 million metro viewers though down from 1.32 million on Sunday. It was well clear of The Block that lost +100k viewers from Sunday to just stay ahead of Survivor that kept all its Sunday audience. Not looking good for The Block this season.

10 took the lead later with Have You Been Paying Attention an easy winner as 7News Spotlight was just outside the top 20 anf Celebrity IOU ranked 35th overall.

Also some good results for the new look Chase and return of Home and Away plus interesting result s for Seven vs Nine news across the east coast markets.

Ouch for the block. The voice must be one of the most successful talent competitions of all time in Australia

I can see Survivor taking back it’s demo lead however after tonight.

Both The Voice and The Block dropped from Sunday’s premiere but Survivor held its own.

The AFL didn’t finish until 11.30pm AEST on 7mate due to a 29-minute delay in the final quarter of the match, caused by lightning in the Perth area.

Larry Emdur’s first one-hour episode of The Chase won the 5.30pm timeslot in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.

Ooft, The Block not the powerhouse it once was and not so demo friendly either anymore. Guess the overhyped ‘drama’ and not-so-subtle product placement has more than anything turned people off. Be interesting to see what they do next year, Byron Bay could be the refresh the show needs along with a refocusing of the narrative for the show.

 and lost the 5:30 pm timeslot in Sydney and Brisbane. In other words: Almost back to where it was before the Olympics and Andrew O’Keefe was the host. The Chase ratings will be viewed very carefully by SEVEN execs over the next few weeks.

Seven will be very happy this morning.

Although it’s not a surprise that the blinds tend to be the best rating part of the show, kudos to Seven for being able to retain a massive chunk of their audience for The Voice on the second episode when previous shows have usually faltered on the second episode in comparison. Let’s hope they can keep this momentum going into the finals because this is the best show Seven have put out so far this year.

The judges have been great so far this year. Great chemistry and all of them seem to be having a great time listening to all the great talents this year. Hopefully this is the year that The Voice gets a chance to find someone successful.

The Block, well I was watching some bits whilst flicking and it was just talk talk talk by the so-called ‘faves’. Wouldn’t be surprised if viewers wanted to give them the flick this year if this is the path they want to go down. Only good time to check it out is the reveals but even then they’ll probably stuff it full of gimmicks.

The (refreshed) Chase Australia is certainly making an impression on some markets more than others. No surprise it’s going to be leading in Adelaide and Perth, but interesting to see that it’s doing well enough in Melbourne.

I do keep in mind that The Chase Australia just recently returned to the one hour format with Larry, so some viewers may have wanted to see how that would turn out.

Those markets still seem to be a bit dead set on Hot Seat before the 6pm news.

With all that said, Seven News had some intriguing figures for “after the Olympics”.

The Melbourne market has attracted some higher numbers - then again Seven did pretty well in the market for the weeks beforehand.

I certainly wasn’t expecting Brisbane to lead by quite a fair margin. Nor did I expect Seven News Sydney to come out being competitive with Nine. Yes, Nine won the first half-hour, but Seven managed a come back at the end.

This seems to say that there are quite a few who are switching to Seven for a full hour in Brisbane just for the news, and Seven will be happy enough with that.

We’ll see over this week whether viewers become accustomed to Seven or not (not much of a surprise if they don’t though).

#12

Do we think The Voice’s huge numbers could be attributed to after effects of the Olympics high viewing numbers, or do viewers genuinely prefer it to the alternatives on Nine and Ten?

#13

I guess that will have to be a wait and see. Survivor has its very strong fanbase so they won’t be affected by the other two but it could be that The Block is finally wearing thin this year with the same old tricks, or perhaps viewers are genuinely drawn to The Voice this year for different reasons. Don’t know how The Voice will go after the auditions so it could go either way.

Of course. That is a no brainer. Every year there is high launches on the back of the Olympics. Remember the huge launch for shows such as Find My Family, Packed to the Rafters etc. The fact it is down 200k already just says that. That doesn’t mean we should take anything away from the strong start.

#15

Nine’s mind-boggling decision to air the Monday night edition of Footy Classified in its usual timeslot in direct opposition to a live AFL game on Seven backfired spectacularly.

At breakfast all three programs had higher than average numbers. Sunrise well stayed above 300,000. Today was second, 50,000 behind but with its biggest audience of the year. News B was also up, 40k behind Sunrise.

But it wasn’t all good news for Sunrise (and the new graphics). It won three markets while Today won in Melbourne where Sunrise was third. In Brisbane, News Breakfast beat both commercials that tied for second, though Today was marginally in front.

Interesting they didn’t claim HYBPA as number 1 in its timeslot Total People.

It had a large overlap with The Voice - started at 8:45pm.

Survivor doing very well, even during Tokyo, has to be said.

It was always going to be about last night and surprisingly perhaps a great turn out for night two of Voice and Seven generally.

Although a weak result for the spotlight Tokyo thing, probably the first Olympics based program not to rate through the roof recently.
