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.

A close result at the top with Nine 0.5 ahead of Seven with the potential for the result to switch when 7-day results come in.
Nine won the key demos plus Sydney and Brisbane with Seven ahead in AFL territory.
All episodes of The Block made the top 10 including taking out the number one spot. Have You Been Paying Attention ? And The Masked Singer Reveal made the top 20.

Outside the top 20 included Back Roads 22nd, MKR’s Monday episode 23rd and The Dog House 24th.

Nine, 10 and SBS were up slightly from week 33 with Seven down 2 and ABC up 2 to its best result in 13 weeks.

7 needs that extra channel. Only needs to rate 1% or more, and it would secure the network win most weeks.

[TV.Cynic]

It might help but it depends where the 1% come from. If it reduces Seven’s other channels it wouldn’t be of benefit. It’s a matter of finding the missing niche audience that fits with Seven.

[JohnsonTV]

The Block also topped the VPM ratings although the figures were a bit lower than the week before.

World Movies had a great week thanks to a line-up of sci-fi movies.

9Life and particularly 9Rush seem to rate well lately, sometimes ahead of 9Go! and 9Gem and often on weeknights ahead of 7flix, ABC and SBS’ m/c. Wonder if that’s in its own right or taken away from Nine’s other m/c and more so if it’s older audiences/total people or are also doing well in the key demos?
