Analysis
Seven
Seven News was #1 with wins in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. Seven News at 6:30 was #2 with wins in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. Better Homes and Gardens was #8 with 368 000 viewers, but sat 9000 viewers behind Gardening Australia. The movie, The Martian had 153 000 viewers at 8:30. 54 000 viewers stayed up late to watch an encore of the premiere of Maternal – a show which has been bumped from its slot already.
Nine
Nine News was #4 with a substantial win in Brisbane. Nine News 6:30 was #3 with wins in Sydney and Brisbane. A Current Affair was #6 and sat behind ABC News in the slot with 452 000 viewers.
There seems to be a coding error with ‘For the Love of Pets’ which Nine screened at 7:30pm. The show does not appear in the OzTam top 20 programs at all. However, Nine suggests it rated #10 for the night with 320 000 viewers. If so, that would be a strong figure for the show, putting it within a whisker of Gardening Australia and Better Homes and Gardens.
The premiere movie, The Penguin Bloom was watched by 210 000 and appears to be #2 in the slot behind Van Der Valk on the ABC. The movie premiere of The Glass Castle had 81 000 viewers.
