Interesting ratings for Sunrise, given there’s not related to a particular news event.
Would have been understandable if it coincided with the start of the war. However, yesterday nothing remarkable, another day of fuel shortages.
I’ve enjoyed the resurgence of The Chase, it feels like they have parted ways of all the gimmicks they tried in 2025. Only there seems to be more episodes I have seen before, I just want to watch new one without getting 15 minutes in and remembering the result. Although good to re-test the knowledge I guess

The Australian has revealed city-by-city breakdown of ABC TV’s primetime replacements.
Because how else could they bash the ABC on a day it got crippled by the strike?

Those numbers can be ignored as they are not even close to being correct.

Maybe if they aired a News bulletin at 7pm when people were tuning in expecting News…

But even from news 24. Even SBS got a 6:30pm boost
I do wonder why 10 bother with these specials. Especially in a 7:30 slot on a weekday. They never do well. I guess 10 don’t really have any new Australian filler programs anymore (Dog House, Bondi Rescue etc).

Without breaking down each market the real 5-city numbers were (Reach, Average, BVOD)
AUSTRALIAN STORY-ENCORE 494,000 188,000 10,000

SBS News numbers impressive without the 7PM ABC News.

Exactly - is it even presented the same? story line up? not really from what I’ve seen.. so they went elsewhere.
