Where did everybody go? Thursday 19 February 2009
Oh man – WTF? Only 3 prime time shows over 1 million, only two weeks into the season – maybe OzTAM needs to examine what households it has on its ledger because these figures are appalling.
Last week was an odd week due to Nine’s telethon – so instead I’m gonna compare with premiere week two weeks ago – lets see the numbers
Nine
Getaway up 3,000 viewers on Celebrity Singing Bee!
Yay Team – that was really worth it, well done.
Adults Only 20 to 01 down 45,000 viewers from two weeks ago
Looks like this show has found its number at least
CSI Miami up at least 200,000 on Kitchen Nightmares/CSI NY
Not sure what CSI NY got in Brisbane that night but this was a definite improvement over their previous performance in the slot – and a timeslot win (barely) however, for a CSI show – this ilow number s just plain unacceptable.
Seven
Ghost Whisperer down 76,000 viewers on two weeks ago
Grey’s Anatomy also down 76,000 viewers
From that I gather that the same people meter people are watching but a few of them opted out or forgot to press the button
Private Practice wasn’t on two weeks ago but comparing to last week debut it has gained 50,000 viewers so its not all bad!
Ten
The Biggest Loser is down 39,000 viewers from two weeks ago
Bondi Vet is down 27,000 viewers
SVU is down 73,000 viewers
Life on Mars is down 282,000 viewers
Most of those figures indicate just less people watching television – except for Life on Mars – those 282,000 viewers have all migrated to channel Nine to watch some CSI Miami, Horatio Caine will cease to be problem for the freshman drama when football season begins again and the crime watches aren’t forced to make a choice between a sci-fi cop show and one set in the 70s!
