The Project (2015-Sept 2020)

Pat Abboud had another report on the show tonight (i missed his story last Sunday). He joined the table to talk about his story too which was about children who have parents in prison.

Thought Abboud’s report and chat with the panel great. I hope he makes more reports on the show.

This reporter from ABS-CBN News Philippines did his interview in the exact same spot as Carrie’s.

Quite common they book a space have all the cameras set up and provide the talent then the reporters can rotate through without having to move the talent many times to different setups.

Tuesday on the show: Tommy Little chats with the four judges of The Masked Singer.
I think the interviews were done while the show was being filmed in Sydney.

The Project really benefiting from being the lead-in to Survior.

So many people are doubting about the shows ratings, when its not doing that bad during 7pm (not that far behind H&A). But then again I guess we’ll have to see how much it drops since survivor season has finished.

Forget the total figures its demos are what is important to 10. And while it might only be doing 500k which isn’t too far behind the competition. It is in the top 5 most nights in all demos.

Its also a brand that advertisers want to be apart of. I guess its because it is so trusted by the public.

Totally, and no advertiser buys on Total People anyway! All campaigns are bought on demos so the Total number is irrelevant in this day and age.

Going off-topic but it really annoys me when people say/suggest this. Yes, the demos are absolutely important for networks and advertisers for obvious reasons. However, total viewers is still the measure by which ratings are reported/analyzed outside the media-industry bubble (to channel my inner Scott Morrison).

While that still happens and for as networks still compete fiercely to be the most-watched, total viewers is still a very important measure - even if some people don’t like it…

Doesnt matter what those outside the industry say or do.

If the advertisers are happy with the demos, then that’s all that matters.

My point is both measures are important - claiming total viewers is an ‘irrelevant’ measure is just nonsensical
