And Disney on Stan has been a major sponsor of Nine’s Aus Open (which is odd as they own it), heavily promoted, even TJ did a late plug last night.
Must have cost Nine big bucks this whole thing

Expect more bloated episodes of MAFS if the good ratings continue.

MAFS debuted to lower ratings than I’m a Celebrity this year even if it was slightly up on last year. Not sure why everyone is going crazy about these numbers. They are good but IMO nothing spectacular yet.
The show is a grower so there is a good chance that like last year, the show will grow even bigger.
The show beating MKR from the first day is a good sign for Nine.
A late night repeat on main channel will dilute the audience watching first screening on 9Life.
Because viewers will purposely stay up late to watch the repeat?

Networks are terrible are re-scheduling programs at last minute when a preceding program concludes abruptly or early…
Examples from Nine over last couple of days:
9Gem: Davis Cup finished 8:56pm (34min early) last night, so succeeding movie scheduled started then. Meaning viewers who have recorded on DVR from EPG will miss that 34min
9Gem: Same tonight, Davis Cup finised 2 and a half hours early ( 
) at 7:07pm, but instead of finding another movie that could theoretically have aired between then and 9:30pm (when succeeding scheduled movie “Maverick” starts) they just moved that forward 2 and a half hours (airing now)!
Meaning an unscheduled (movie?) will air after 9:30pm now.
Id laugh if they aired the film Maverick then followed it with the film Maverick.
I guess it would be harder with live sport though.
Did they really bump ACA for a MAFS encore? Tracey Grimshaw would be ropable…
Nope.
MAFS started at 7:30pm

Nine’s main channel share was also respectable, though it might’ve mainly been attributed to news and ACA
LOL 
Who knows, though PRG 2nd line just before said “SVU next” (which was scheduled for midnight, not 9:30)
So what is this film?
