Another Married At First Sight dinner party brought more bumper ratings to Nine topping 1.9m though that was down about 100k from the previous week. That helped Nine to an easy win for the night.

The 1% Club UK was the best commercial competition doing comparatively well and up 130k week-on-week to almost 800k. Australian Survivor’s third episode of the week was unable to improve on the previous week’s rating that it equalled with 365k. That was down 50k on Tuesday’s episode.

ABC premiered its new series Tonight At The Museum from 8pm to an audience of 447k that was down 140k on the Hard Quiz in the time slot last week. The Social Schism premiered on SBS at 7.30pm to a disappointing 74k.

The Front Bar was back for its 2026 season with 582k up from the 2025 season debut that had 530k and the also up on 2024 that had 508k. It was narrowly beaten by Nine’s premiere Naked City The Hit Men that had 594k.

That saw The Weekly With Charlie Pickering dropped 60k to 485k while a special Wednesday night edition of Gogglebox Australia managed just 321k, down form its Thursday result last week of 548k.

In a split schedule for Seven, Marching In was shown at 9.30p in AFL states averaging 179k. 9News Late did well with 345k while a Dog Park encore on ABC had 193k.

Seven News was ahead by almost 150k at 6pm after Tipping Point won at 5pm by 90k.

At 7pm A Current Affair was almost 100k ahead of ABC that topped one million for the third time this year while Home and Away had 926k. Millionaire Hot Seat had 264k.

For the fourth consecutive day Sunrise reached over one million viewers to average 424k while Today and especially News Breakfast rated above average.

Survivor slipped again after having a temporary ratings boost on Monday. This affected the ratings for Gogglebox.

Decent debut for Naked City: Hitmen.

Whose idea was it to schedule The Social Schism at 7.30pm against heavy competition? Such an important forum show should air at 8.30pm or afterwards.

10 constantly headlining with this metric is really starting to look desperate. 12 shows had more BVOD viewers last night.

ekane · March 5, 2026, 4:41am

And as more people move to streaming, nearly every show will be able to claim this regardless for the next few seasons of shows

yellow_sock · March 5, 2026, 4:55am

Lets replace a great host with a “fan favourite”. What could possibly go wrong… Survivor sinking fast!

The Front Bar returned with some good numbers.

Tonight at the Museum… well, its not Hard Quiz…

ekane · March 5, 2026, 5:49am

And let’s not forget, (i know this is a repeat from me) but losing Neighbours and project, has meant hundreds of thousands of daily eyeballs are no longer there to advertise and to promote to, so it was an even bigger risk.

However we saw people switch on for Celeb, so it can’t all be blamed on the 10News+ effect if every future show fails.

MossPickle · March 5, 2026, 11:14am

Yes, keen to see that.
Wonder how 10 will go with that as it’s Tillies → Late News → Gogglebox RPT
As I send this, the Matildas win 4-0. Wonder what that means for ratings
