The good news continues for Revenge which has now become the most-watched programme on recorded viewing since the introduction of time-shifted viewing.
OzTAM’s time-shifted viewing calculates the number of people who watch a show they have recorded up to 7 days after it first broadcast.
Trends indicate these numbers favour scripted drama, including those which have late-night start-times.
Revenge pulled an extra 311,966 viewers, taking the weekly national for the first episode at 2.37m
TEN’s Homeland came a close second with another 308,573 viewers for Sunday 11th February. Its total now stands at 1.12m.
Alcatraz on Nine picked up an extra 279,341 viewers, totalling 1.37m.

@DeeCee Likewise 🙂
@andrewb – Cheers 🙂
@ Southpatt – google OzTam and visit their web site – all info there.
The high timeshift figures are a result of having so many shows worth watching airing at the same time on some nights, while having nothing on other nights.

Google – “About OzTAM ratings”
311,96 viewers
308,57 viewers
279,34 viewers

Seems like you’re putting the comma in the wrong spot or missing a number on each figure David.
So Homeland isn’t losing viewers then..
Can these kinds of posts become a regular David?
@Craig – I still use a VCR as well as a twin tuner PVR, it gives me another option if there are 4 shows on at the same time that I want to see (notably on Mondays and Thursdays). I also use the online catch-up sites, I’m sure they must have some kind of counter system so they can see how many people are watching a certain show.
@Jake – tape? – time to update to a digital PVR I think LOL
I record most FTA shows I watch, which isn’t many right now to watch them without ads later.
Surprised that all 3 of those shows had around the same number of time-shifted views, wonder if that says something about the viewing public?
David does this figure include catchup viewing on iView and Plus7 etc as I tend to watch a lot of catchup that way as I imagine of people do now.
I tape Revenge along which all other my other shows and watch them at a later date too…….
David – presumably these figures pertain to the original screening time-slot only. I assume that any repeats/encores played by a network are coded as such and appear separately? Apologies if this is a stupid question – just want to understand it more. Thanks.
can someone tell me exactly how many ratings boxes there are in Australia that are representative of the viewing public ?
