Well we caught the last 15 minutes of The Voice last night, and sat there just stunned. A whole lot of non-Australians sitting in judgement (apart from Delta who can barely string two words together coherently). They looked awful, tatts hanging off just about all of them. What they were saying was mostly nonsense (do they know anything about actual music?), and a studio full of the usual screaming audience. And who’s the compere? Another ring-in from OS presumably.
My husband, a professional musician and singer for longer than we care to remember, had to leave the room he was so incensed by it all.
This is what Australian television has come to – a whole swag of lifestyle/’talent’ shows, all looking and sounding much the same, night after night, week after week. It’s truly awful. And are any of these contestants ever heard of again, or so they sink back into oblivion after their day in the sun?
Harsh stuff. Darren McMullen emigrated to Australia at the age of 12. An apology wouldn’t be out of order?
ABC News 24 and ABC1 at 9am AEST live everywhere else on ABC News 24 and the other 2 could be the repeats on ABC News 24
Can anyone tell me why there are 3 different figures for Insiders? I thought the show was on only twice on Sundays. Are iView figures included there?
@ karebear
APTCH are good numbers – Seven would be happy with this.
Anything over 1 Million is a hit show
@james23 – because it wins Logies year after year after year.
In hooked on A place to call home. I would have thought 1.3m were good numbers (I’m no expert on the subject tho 😛 )
Decent drop off for APTCH, but the lead in wasn’t half as strong, and at least it built upon The Force. I wonder if it will continue to drop…
Financial Review Sunday did really well for its first show, a well polished bulletin. Also surprising is 60 Minutes still doing really well even with the different time slot of 8pm and changing again next week.
Bondi Rescue is ratings poison for Ten. Why do they keep it on?
Pretty significant drop in ratings for A Place to call home (APTCH). Hope it levels out at this. Wasn’t it expensive to make?
Great Number fot the voice last night !! I really enjoyed it and also good numbers for Financial Review Sunday !!! Nine should be happy with that !! and I dont know why TEN is continuing with Bondi Rescue !! If hoser numbers were on Nine or Seven they would axe it straight away !!
Where was MotoGP?
Go shaun the sheep!!
ABC2 is the best digital channel by a long shot
@ilovetv – Mummy’s favourite babysitter.
Shaun the sheep was #1 on multichannel (lol)
A very good start for Fin Rev Sunday, easily beating the competition. It was a well produced show. I would like to see more market analysis though.
I’m a little disappointed with Murdoch last night, I didn’t think it offers much. It feels like it was just a narration of his wikepedia entries with visuals.
