It is interesting that they always play it safe and promote from within both on air and BTS (the E.P).
Speaking of which, Sunrise still held a solid audience on Good Friday, despite the public holiday, still in the 270ks and 90k+ ahead of Today. Who said Beretts was unpopular?
A promo just aired saying that they will be live from Currumbin Beach on the Gold Coast again this year for Anzac Day. Special live performance from John Williamson.
Hold up. Is that 270k+ result from 7-10am? Is that a fair comparision when Today finished at 9? I am happy for you to keep gloating if you provide insight into the performance for the main block (7-9am).
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.
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
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.
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.
