An extra hour would usually bring your average down so the fact Sunrise performed so strong over a 3 hour period compared to TODAY’s 2 hour period is a very good result. More on that here: https://tvblackbox.com.au/page/2019/4/14/week-15-ratings-wrap-jhnkn

Given it was a public holiday, I thought more people would be watching later in the morning than at 7am, for example. Isn’t that why Sunrise always extends on PH- to capitalise on the shift in audience?
Given that the morning shows did so well on Friday, could that be the case, Rob? On weekends, they perform better closer to 10 than 7am.
Coding aside, they still performed strongly

Yes they did and chose not 2
The post was deleted but you were absolutely correct… the normal 7-9am section of the show didn’t perform as strongly as the 9-10 section. Hopefully this is within the rules

But I’d also add that there’s nothing wrong with Sunrise doing that. TODAY has the option of doing the same

Good to have him hosting again. However, a lot of segments are weighted heavily on Nat with her reading 4-6 sentences and Beretts not saying a word.
Sunrise didn’t have sport at 7.30 today, instead opted to schedule their weekly ‘The Senators’ segment, oddly (for Sunrise) in the middle of their news bulletin.
They also led their 6am news with Nat reading the top story of coverage on the Sri Lanka before crossing to Eddy for the rest of the news- which I liked.

I hope you didn’t spend too much of your time searching back for that post. Must be really important to you to make Today look good at any prime opportunity.
There appears to be more chemistry with Deb and Tom in the hosting role as opposed to Deb and Georgie.
Not a bad product this morning.
Tuesday (23.04.2019) - Wednesday (24.04.2019): Nat and Beretts are still co-hosting. Edwina Bartholomew is reading the news with Nathan Templeton on sport.

Before 8:00am John Williamson sang True Blue, then as they came back from an ad break at 8:00am the voiceover said that John Williamson was coming up with a true blue song as True Blue played in the background.
A fantastic program this morning.
They’re showing great respect to the day, whilst also presenting the rest of the days news, sport and weather.
Everything appears to be getting covered.

Just a cringey Waltzing Maltida.
