Please note: The report includes catch up minutes only and is not restricted to the five metropolitan cities. Live streaming channel viewing is not included. When broadcasters upgrade their video players, player measurement SDKs may take time to reach consumer devices (consumers need to update their apps) and may temporarily result in an under-reporting of a broadcaster video player figures. Refer to the VPM Guidelines at the [OzTAM website] (www.oztam.com.au)
VPM Rating: total minutes played divided by content length (rounded to the nearest '000); Length (mins): duration in minutes of the program content; Minutes: total number of minutes played across measured devices (rounded to the nearest '000); BVOD Reach: total number of times the video content began to play. Posted date: the day the video content was first made available to play. Top Programs are for episodes with a minimum length of 15 minutes.

#4

Seven’s first overnight win in the 2021 survey and its first week with a 30% share.
The network was up 1 point from the previous week while Nine dropped one with 10, ABC and SBS fairly stable. Seven won the key demos as well as AFL markets while Nine was the number one network in NRL territory.

The Handmaid’s Tale does well for SBS with VPM viewing.

After 10 weeks, Seven was able to register its first weekly win in the 2021 official ratings year.

That has to be the highlight, what a result and turn-around and not just helped by multi-channels either (TVT posted a graph which shows main channel too).

That would be a disappointment for Nine, considering Lego was still in front of BB including in the coveted 25-54 each night. I’m guessing AFL (which one night was No. 1 program in all key demos) possibly decided victor here.

#7

The 7-day VPM rating for the first week of Big Brother was generally lower than last year. The rating for the corresponding episodes from last season were:
episode 1: 140,000
episode 2: 119,000
episode 3: 106,000

Very rare appearance by Fox Footy in the Live VPM (that’s not Kayo is it? But rather Foxtel broadcast’s mobile platforms of Foxtel Now and Foxtel Go?) Also a high result and in day time - not including broadcast or Kayo either, let alone Seven.

Also, with the Telstra AFL Live Pass (who had mobile AFL rights) finished, looks to no longer be labelled “Footy Play”?
