I missed the first offer. What was it? Nothing about this episode seemed record breaking.

The initial offer was 2 counters for $100,000. On the table simultaneously was an offer of 3 counters for $50,000 and eventually 4 counters for $20,000 plus a holiday to Airlie Beach.

I’ve been watching TP the last few days with my elderly father. I can see how it appeals to some. Certainly not too taxing on the brain with the level of questions.
Probably easier for some to watch at the end of a long day compared to The Chase which is basically all questions and lots of quick fire.

Fairly neck-to-neck up to week 20, then Tipping Point became the runaway winner. Shows that it does take some time for programs to make their groove and get some momentum.

And I imagine that’s roughly the same time then that 9 news started having national wins. Tipping Point did the same thing last year for 9’s afternoon news, and continues to do so.

Any reason why they reverse the image when in the smaller box?

Creates the illusion of the contestants looking directly at what is happening. It would look a lot weirder if they were facing off-screen.

They are facing off screen in both images to me …good pickup by @akymbo82, I think purely for optics only,
