TV.Cynic · August 6, 2026, 1:43am

The Block continued to be the top-rated 7.30pm program of the night as Wednesday saw 898k tune in. It went up against a repeat episode of The 1% Club UK with 777k that was seen in four markets on Seven. Calcio Italiano Football aired on the main channel in Perth and 7Mate elsewhere and had 142k.

The Traitors’ second episode had 539k after debuting across 10’s channels on Tuesday to 636k. At 8pm Hard Quiz on ABC had 557k after last week recording 584k while Alone Australia on SBS was down 20k to 273k.

Following, The Front Bar was a time slot winner with 621k. Nine aired a FTA preview of Stan’s The F Ward to average 381k while Spicks And Specks disappointed on ABC again with 306k. New Zealand Spy episode three later had 254k while AFL Special: SP433 - The Record Breaker premiere special had 261k.

Seven News was the number one program of the day with 1.434m as Nine News had 1.302m. Earlier, Tipping Point with 848k was ahead of The Chase with 729k.

By 7pm, A Current Affair saw Nine pull ahead with 1.019m while Home and Away had 930k and ABC News 902..

Sunrise continued to dominate breakfast TV with 486k, 200k ahead of Today with 280k and News Breakfast not far behind with 254k.

MossPickle · August 6, 2026, 1:47am

Not bad by The Traitors to hit above 500k without multichannels

JohnsonTV · August 6, 2026, 1:53am

Also the BVOD audience for The Traitors was up from Tuesday’s premiere (excluding those who watched the advanced screening on YouTube).

Two Wednesdays ago Home and Away had 943,000. So showing the soap on 7two in Perth (due to soccer on the main channel) had little impact on the national figures.

JBar · August 6, 2026, 2:23am

Has Sunrise ever had such a massive gap to Today and News Breakfast before?

ekane · August 6, 2026, 2:40am

Whilst the BVOD jump was to be expected as the pilot episode had days for people to preview, ep 2 didn’t. (Has ep 3 dropped yet or is it dropping early on the day?), it’s the Live viewers that will be one to watch.

It’s demos are close to The Block. I guess by releasing it early online, it doesn’t help with overnights this season, but builds an audience for future seasons, where they can hold off on releasing the episodes early and get better total numbers.

TV.Cynic · August 6, 2026, 2:46am

5 cities

Nine News has a 100,000 win including a very close result in Adelaide.

Tipping Point has another all-market win.

Sunrise stays 100,000 ahead of Today despite Today having one of its highest ratings over the last several weeks (shows how bad it has been doing).

Seven News at 4 wins nationally but not in the metro rankings.

Episode 3 of The Traitors has not been posted online yet. I guess it will be sometime on Tuesday.

TV.Cynic · August 6, 2026, 5:13am

Comparisons will have to rely on the 5 city ratings to answer that. Also I think we can take out the week of the Commonwealth Games from the consideration. In the metro market Sunrise is running about 60,000 to 80,000 ahead. Sunrise has had those sort of margins before and over an extended period. The first half of 2020 is a good example - Today even ranked third several mornings. Also July/August of that year had some similar results. A possible difference now is that NB is lower than that period.

Examples
Sun - Today - NB:
Wed 1 Apr 354,000 251,000 247,000
Wed 29 Apr 325,000 225,000 249,000
Wed 1 July 320,000 211,000 228,000
Wed 12 Aug 289,000 208,000 234,000.

The Block doing well for Nine. While The Traitors Aus on 10 did alright, to be stable over the 500k mark.

Not bad numbers (of 381k) for The F Ward on Nine at 8.40pm. It shows that there is viewers for local drama on FTA (second in its timeslot).

nationalnews · August 6, 2026, 11:30am

Yes!

10 have now said it will be posted at midday on Tuesday.

This is the same thing that Three NZ did for their recent season, releasing it early at midday on ThreeNow.
