A shame that SBS is still continuing with this split for their news.

I can understand why Sunrise and Today are still splitting their shows into three segments of “5.30am”, “Early” and “normal” (7-9am), as they are lengthy shows. For The Morning Show and Today Extra having “the extra” portion is silly though.

This has bothered my for some time. I wish these reality shows be averaged into 1, rather than have 4 or so entries each into the top 20 weekly shows. Or at least have two entries at most - “Married at First Sight - Sunday” (for the 7pm start), and “Married at First Sight Mon-Thurs” (for their 7.30pm start). Same for Idol and Survivor. A Sunday entry, and a weekday average entry.

Home and Away-late slightly ahead of Home and Away in reach, but slightly behind in average. So a 7.30 slot, twice a week is totally feasible.
Just do it 7!
New current affairs at 7pm. Good lead in to 7.30, and you have 2 7.30 slots for week sorted with H&A.

Something we’re going to notice I think, is the Friday and Saturday ratings, from tomorrow morning.

Networks (AFAIK) haven’t sent out releases for these days for many years, except the odd very notable result, like record post-initial COVID AFL return audiences in mid-2020 and AFL Finals or Australian Opens or Olympics / Comm Games. So we are unlikely to ever see shares and therefore who won what for these days ever again.

And the reach is going to really inflate the AFL, NRL and all the movies, it’s just going to be ridiculous.

And we are never going to see all those m/c shares and results ever again.

Unless of course the networks’ end-of-week wraps on Sunday/Monday highlight each day including weekends and m/c, but unlikely.

Thanks so much for the extra numbers @TV.Cynic! Hopefully these numbers + news numbers will be added daily as a minimum by OzTam
What a turnaround since Sunday! Tipping Point is smashing it and Alicia & Tom are holding their ground.
I’m also happy Deal or No Deal has held some ground - I am enjoying the new version. Hopefully the numbers grow.

Is this including regional or just 5 city metro?

They are the national number seen in the “Average” column in the first post.

It doesn’t make sense to have an exemption for two timeslots. Ideally, OzTam should publish the 5 city metro average for every show in the top 30 because it would provide a more comprehensive picture of the results. If they’re not going to do that though, they would get into slippery slope territory by creating exemptions to that.

Besides, the issue with Nine’s focus on the 5 city metro (and the cherry-picking of data to publish due to that) is that one of the positives about the revamped system is the emphasis on national figures rather than the 5 city metro being the be all end all.

The only info received from OzTAM is in the first post i.e., the reach tables.

Everything else such as the average audience table and anything about metro numbers or per market numbers is sourced from broadcasters (mainly Nine). The tables have to manually generated and the 5-city info is all manually input.
