Third night of long weekend AFL primetime keeps Seven on top
After winning shares on Thursday and Friday off the back of AFL in primetime, Seven continued on its TV ratings winning streak last night with a primary share of 24.6%. That is Seven’s equal second-best number since mid-April.
Seven’s Saturday TV ratings network share of 36.3% was strong enough for it to rank #1 in network share for Week 24. An impressive victory during an Origin week on Nine.
Seven’s AFL audience was 424,000, a major dip though on the Dreamtime game on Saturday a week ago which had 675,000 watching.
On Nine A Current Affair Saturday was just under 500,000. The numbers then dropped to 330,000 for David Attenborough’s Perfect Planet.
The best on 10 was The Savoy with 187,000. A repeat of The Dog House earlier in the evening was on 158,000.
Week-on-week The Durrells on the ABC climbed from 237,000 to 267,000. Sanditon then pulled an audience of 174,000, close to the numbers of a week ago.
After just under 200,000 watching SBS World News at 6.30pm, a 7.30pm repeat of Lost Treasures of the Maya was on 145,000.
