Bringing back The Project isn’t a solution. It was axed for a reason. Its numbers were also diabolical. Just because its replacement didn’t work doesn’t mean you go backwards. They just need to find something that will work. Trial and error.
They’ve been trying almost continuously since 1992 for something, anything to work at 6. As far as I can tell, only 2 things have for 10, and there is little to no way for the first one to come back.
They absolutely were diabolical. 300k odd against 1 mill each night. Horrendous numbers. You can’t compare those to News+ as it didn’t exist. At the time of The Projects axing it was no longer viable.
They need to move away from News. Viewers do not want news from 10. The sooner they accept this the quicker they’ll get out of this mess.
They can get back The Simpsons. It’s the only way to solve their 6pm woes. A couple of emails to Disney to organise a deal and they can get the show on for tomorrow.
So if 3x the audience of 10 News+ was absolutely diabolical and horrendous numbers, what do you call 10 News+ ratings? Oh apparently you can’t compare those. I’d bet if 10 News+ was rating better than The Project did then we’d be getting constant posts comparing the two!
It must be a worry, when repeats of Antiques Roadshow (one hour from 5.30pm) and Hard Quiz (at 6.30pm) are “blitzing it” over at the ABC, compared to 10 News+.
