Ratings: MasterChef leads Big Brother, Seven wins Tuesday
#2

With radically different Tuesday line ups Seven and Nine swapped places in the Tuesday overnights. Seven improved more than four points to record their best Tuesday network share of 2020. Without a reality tent-pole, Nine dropped five share points but still managed second place in total audience share. 10 was up just over one percentage point. Seven won all markets and key demo groups with 10 ranking second in Melbourne.

MasterChef took out the title as number one reality show, posting its highest Tuesday audience for five weeks and winning across the key demographic groups. Big Brother (coded in two segments) lost some audience from the premiere but remained above 800,000 for the duration of the show.

Nine’s Kath and Kim double episode repeats landed in fourth place as 7.30pm - episode two ranked 24th. 10’s How To Stay Married was the best performer post 7.30 steady with recent results. Criminal Minds ranked 26th just ahead of Nine’s movie The Dish 27th.

ABC continued its poor run this week with its lowest Tuesday audience since the first week of the ratings survey in February.

SBS’s line up included Who Do You Think You Are? in 22nd place. Filthy Rich and Famous was 28th, well down on the previous season.

MasterChef well ahead of the very show it replaced, in its second reboot since then no less.

Still decent figures for Big Brother and doing the job in the demos for 7 too.

Strange how Seven News Melbourne gains in the last half hour when Nine drops significantly. What exactly is the turn on? Jane Bunn lol?

Well, well. 10 must be dancing for joy that their 12-old cooking show is beating what is often considered the darling of the younger demos in its first week back on air.
Good news for seven too. they badly need younger viewers and BB no doubt will help.

Nine fell in a heap without a first-run show after 7.30pm.
BB down a bit from Monday’s premiere but still rated decently.
ABC had a poor night with a low debut for the ocean documentary. Perhaps Tuesday was the wrong night to show it?

Don’t watch big brother, but 7 probably made the correct changes for a different world. Survivor in a house.

Masterchef did go head to head with it before and the ratings yo yo’d between who was ahead of who depending on the day. This was during Masterchefs (and Tens) dwindling years.

#10

Yeah not a fan of her weather style. Liv any day. I just figured TJ vs Jac Felgate, well I assume more would watch TJ.

Perhaps it’s the AFL news, 7 being AFL rights, more people switch over for details. More so this week of course.

I’m thinking its the sports segment actually. With the AFL returning this week, people do swap channels as they know 7 have the rights.

While it might help 10 in consolidated shares next week, NCIS rpts cost 10 the demos by the look of it.
@TV.Cynic Have nine released their statement yet or are they still trying to find something that “dominated” somewhere. :slight_smile:

#13

Really good numbers for MasterChef which slightly benefited slightly from The Voice not being . Big Brother dropped from its launch despite less competition and doesn’t seem to have had any impact on Masterchef. I reckon some Voice viewers tested it out last night and Big Brother will be closer to 700k come Sunday.

The Big Brother splits are also ridiculous if there is an eviction every episode. Seven didn’t even split a winner announced for House Rules but are doing this. Soon you’ll have MasterChef splitting an elimination.

Kath & Kim repeats tanked for Nine. Surely there is a factual or something in the cupboard that they can air instead?

Big Brother drops as expected. The demos are still better than every Seven show this year which is probably a relief for them.

Not surprised that Kath and Kim flopped. Masterchef does very well yet again.

Surely they could say something more than that? No.1 Main channel, No.1 in Demos. Seven News timeslot winner, Sunrise is timeslot/demo winner etc.

Great figures for Masterchef. Also a good figure for Big Brother. It didn’t drop too drastically. I am actually a bit over it after 2 episodes and probably won’t watch much again. The cast are a bit bland in my opinion. And the one person I thought would be good got eliminated last night.

#20

I’m selective in all the info posted from the networks and tyy to stick to things that are interesting and relevant to the discussion here.

Seven don’t actually say they are number one in their release! Their info is about things like national reach and national ranking, commercial share of timeslot. They report that nationally The Eviction segment was number one in its timeslot and in key demos. But they don’t say anything about the rest of the show.

Seven’s PR about their news again is all about reach (viewing for 5 minutes of the program).

BTW Nationally MasterChef was number one in total people and key demos.

I don’t think the figures were too bad actually considering the episodes are nearly 20 years old. Some people who saw the Nine promos may have mistakenly assumed they were new episodes as there was a big drop off for the 2nd ep.

What do you think Nine would have realistically expected this to rate? Ì’d say 350-400k would be around the target. It’s also a lot cheaper to run than Seven and 10’s reality offerings so they are getting value for money.

The Dish also held onto most of the audience, averaging just under 300k.
