Another Saturday win for Seven, its 10th straight; with Nine and ABC down, while SBS beats 10.

Seven’s AFL coverage was on par with recent results though Seven’s share was down one on the previous week.

The NRL Magic Round on Nine was up year on 2021 when it saw 220,000 tune in though the main channel coverage in Melbourne underperformed. Main channel coverage of AFL in Brisbane did well up against the NRL.

Meanwhile, while 10’s network share was actually up slightly on last week, the main channel slumped to its second lowest result of the year, beaten by multichannel 10 Bold and 10 Peach and ranking 11th. The Soccer, usually underperforming was unable to compete against NRL and AFL plus Eurovision.

Meanwhile the second semi final of Eurovision did well for SBS with the 13% share its best since the network’s Madi Gras coverage of 2021.

Meanwhile another poor Saturday result for Weekend Today.

2.8…… time to put the multi channel content on the main channel 10!

10 was 11th for the night. Ouch. I was being a bit optimistic a few weeks ago when i said the Finals Series of the A-League should give 10 a small bump to the 5% mark. I was wrong. Only two more Saturdays to go until the soccer is off 10 and the 24th encore of The Cheap Seats can take its spot.

Eurovision Semi on SBS did well. The NRL on Nine did well too, as too the AFL on Seven (like usual).

Viacom needs to step in and take control of Ten. What are they doing over there?

Eurovision did well in the demos.

Good results for Seven News Sydney, beating Nine News.

But HORRIBLE results for 10’s main channel. Beaten by:

There needs to be SERIOUS crisis talks at 10. Having your main channel beaten by most multichannels and having a 2.3% share is no laughing matter.

I actually laughed out loud when I saw that figure. Didn’t think they could get much lower than their performance last week but they’ve outdone themselves. Bev and her executive team should hang their heads in shame and resign.

I reckon 10 should try a live reality show on Saturday night.

Maybe cut the news down to 30 mins and do this:

5:30pm Family Movie
7:30pm The X Factor Australia
9PM Xtra Factor - interviews with contestants and analysis
9:30pm Movie

Use a familiar format to help launch the slot so to speak then try new formats after X ends.

Last I read they were bidding for AFL rights over there.

That doesn’t help the next few years or NSW/ QLD states…

64k in Sydney, 51k in Brisbane last night for Seven. The A League probably got one of those cities figures nationally.

It’s no longer Viacom…. But Paramount calling the shots. And half the reason why 10 is fucked on Saturday nights is due to their parent company “Paramount” pushing for the soccer rights here.

10 is stuck showing Soccer on its main channel until 2025.

Soccer does not rate in this country.

@TV.Cynic What rated more: The A-League Finals on 10 or Clive Palmers infomercial at 2pm on Nine?

:joy::joy: oh dear

Viacom no longer exist. So I’m not quite sure what you are talking about.

Lmao.

Won’t be long before 10 Shake beats the main channel on Saturdays with the way things are going.

The A-League needs to go. Even Ambulance and Dog House repeats rate far better than A-League.

Yeah we all know what happened when they did two years ago and gutted the place.

I’m sure you’re still gunning for them to bring your beloved family from Springfield back.

Paramount Global then. it’s hard to keep up with all the mergers and name changes. They should concentrate on fixing Ten

I just explained to you above the reason why. Paramount are half the reason why 10 are stuck on Saturday nights.

Actually Swans and Lions games would be competitive in those markets and rate far higher than A League.
