(Note: These tables from Nine, have previously shown consolidated data)

TV.Cynic · February 23, 2025, 10:04pm

Nine had an easy win in the second week of the survey period with a five point margin and up one on the previous week. That was at the expense of Seven and SBS that lost share while 10 and ABC were slightly higher.

Nothing could come close to Married At First Sight that again saw all four episodes top all rankings – demographics, reach and BVOD.

Two episodes topped 1.8 million average viewers something rarely seen for a standard episode of any show. To put that into perspective, those two episodes were over 1.3 million in the 5-city market. Since 2020 only two regular episodes of any reality show have topped 1.3 million – the series opener for The Voice in 2021 and the penultimate episode of MAFS in 2020.

Meanwhile, Idol’s episodes were up by 20-40k from last year with the highest on 930k. 10 saw two entries in the top 30 with new Gogglebox 27th and the final of I’m A Celebrity 29th overall and 19th in 25-54.

Death in Paradise was ABC’s best non-news entry.

9News closed the gap on Seven’s bulletin this week after Tipping Point had a +110k win at 5pm.

Nine won all 5-city markets except Adelaide that Seven won by under one point. Seven also won the regionals.
