Chk Chk Boom

Monday 25 May 2009

A real quick one for Monday with the biggest week on week improvement coming from (of all places) A Current Affair.

ACA put on an additional 136,000 viewers in what was otherwise a fairly stable night by interviewing that Chk Chk Boom girl!

You can check out the video right here!


I not even sure what’s funny or interesting about it, other than been the most vacuous and pointless rise to fame since Corey Worthington, or Miley Cyrus.

The whole affair reminds me of that episode of The Simpsons where Bart becomes the “I didn’t do it!” boy!


It also says something for the power of Seven’s Today Tonight which was still a full 200,000 viewers clear of Nine in the 6.30 slot, talk about Grey Power.

And what does it say about Australia that a grand total of 3,024,000 individuals are supposedly watching tabloid TV at this time?

At least we can take comfort in the stellar performance of Scrubs second in its timeslot and climbing, it's typical of Seven to have an import that flounders for most of its run until the final season where suddenly it takes off. That 70s Show, MacGyver are two hits that immediately spring to mind, but that's an article for another day...
