Looks like channel 7 have well and truly taken out the years ratings again in total people watching, they obviously have the right mix of shows to suit all ages and don’t rely on repeats and repeats and repeats, and then a few odd average shows to keep afloat. Hope that 10 can lift it’s game next year and do very well.
I know how people love to pick on Ten, so I might as well say, well done to them for beating the ABC for the majority of the week. So it should be “TEN battered ABC on Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, rather than “ABC bettered TEN on Monday, Friday and Saturday”. lol
Clew: I think most people accept that TEN should be in third position so I have traditionally reported when ABC pips a commercial broadcaster. If you’re suggesting we now congratulate them when they beat the ABC it says much more than you probably intended.
Who won the Brisbane news battle this week?
