Can Of Worms lifts slightly for Ten

The Ten network’s panel show Can Of Worms lifted its audience by just over 40,000 last night but still failed to breach the 400,000 mark after its disappointing debut of 351,000 metro viewers last week.

The Chrissie Swan hosted program posted 392,000 five capital city viewers according to preliminary OzTAM ratings.

But once again it was My Kitchen Rules which dominated the night with 2.1m viewers tuned in to the Seven heavyweight.

The network’s following drama Revenge had almost 1.3 million watching, and was the most popular general entertainment show of the night and  fourth most popular of the night.

The Block: All Stars on Nine recovered after it slipped below 900,000 last week to score 1.080 million viewers, while Ten’s MasterChef: The Professionals wallowed at 528,000 viewers – well below its series average of almost 900,000.

The Can Of Worms performance was again below Ten’s afternoon soap The Bold And The Beautiful which had 490,000 fans tuned in.

ABC1 recorded another strong Monday performance to push Ten into fourth again, while Seven easily won the night.

In Nine’s preferred demographic of 25-54, the network had five shows in the top ten, with Big Bang Theory performing most strongly. In Ten’s preferred demos , Masterchef was the network’s top performer, 12th in 16-39 and 13th in 18-49.
