I don’t watch The Block (flicked between MKR and Masked Singer) but a family member messaged in the first half hour and said, “I can’t stand all the drama on The Block”. Seems drama and scandal do rate. They said they intend to just watch the reveal episodes.
Seven won all markets doing best in Adelaide and Perth. Nine did best in Sydney, less than 1 point behind Seven. The three east coast markets were 10’s best.
Outside the top 20 included.

At breakfast Weekend Sunrise made the top 20, 110,000 ahead of 2nd-placed Weekend Breakfast that was 20k ahead of Weekend Today with a 2022 low. Sunrise won all markets.
The coding on the weekend is different to during the week; 7am-8am is “Early” with the main coding for 8am-10am. Yesterday W Sunrise 7am-8am had a huge audience probably associated with the Comm Games - it was higher than the 8-10 portion of Today. And they kept watching Sunrise across the morning. Otherwise W Today often rates poorly especially on Saturdays. The Weekend Sunrise team is much preferred over the W Today team.
Do you think The Block will go down as the biggest reality show in Australian television? It is staggering how well its done after 18 seasons and 20 years.
Weekend Sunrise and Today have a late portion (9-10am) on Saturdays in the ratings. Do they have the same on Sundays, or is the main part 8-10am as mentioned?
It would just about have to, the longevity and continued ratings success. I do wonder how much impact being on Nine (as opposed to 10) has and if the shows were reversed, say MasterChef on Nine and The Block on 10 and if we’d see any differences in audiences.
It’s also not like The Block hasn’t had those very high rating seasons too (like Idol or MasterChef or MKR’s best days), with the 2011 reboot season topping over 3m metro IIRC.
It would be interesting to know Sunday morning 10am-onwards rankings in Melbourne?
Programming consists of two sport programs (Sunday Footy Show on 9 and Offsiders on the ABC), and two mid-morning highlights programs (Morning Show on 7 and Studio 10 on Ten). Would be interesting to see which ones rates well.
