House Rules had a respectable 720,000 watching, well ahead of MasterChef.
Sunday Night then dropped below 500,000 again.
Nine
The Logies Arrivals show kicked off the night celebrating Australian TV with 799,000 watching. That represents a continuing downward trend after 867,000 in 2017 and 840,000 in 2018.
However The Logie Awards show managed to buck that trend with last night’s audience of 866,000 up on 2018’s 851,000. The 2017 TV crowd was 940,000.
Nine had the biggest TV Week Logie TV audiences, now it needs to get serious about getting a few TV Week Logie winners. Expect a few more aggressive campaigns in 2020 perhaps resulting in some high profile victories.
