Nine’s having a good week, The Block is killing it in the ratings, and now it’s launching a new show starring Magda Szubanski.
While the debut of After The Verdict failed to crack the 500,000 mark, scripted shows tend to build, so it’ll be interesting to see what happens. Plus, who can resist Magda? I’m personally a fan of seeing networks invest in local content, so please, everyone tunes in.
Seven News hit 920,000 viewers, while Nine News earned 799,000 viewers.
Nine’s A Current Affair scored 653,000 viewers – Grimshaw as always, kills it.
As per OzTAM’s metro numbers, Seven’s The Chase grabbed 528,000 – this show proves my University education do not teach me much.
Home And Away nabbed 477,000 – I honestly will never get sick of these beautiful people and their silly problems.
Meanwhile, My Kitchen Rules scored 471,000 viewers- Nigella is an absolute star. I’d also like to see her become a judge on The Masked Singer and Australia Idol! I crave more of her.
A well deserved result 😁 10/10 from the judges!#MKR pic.twitter.com/npOQIs92Qy
