Strong night for Ten, but So You Think You Can Dance fails to match last year’s ratings
Ten had another strong ratings night on Wednesday, but more thanks to Masterchef than the finale of So You Think You Can Dance.
Masterchef was again the top-rating show for the night with 1.611m viewers, followed by Seven’s war drama The Pacific with 1.476m, according to preliminary overnight Oztam data for the main metro markets.
So You Think You Can Dance – Finale Night attracted 1.076m. The Winner Announced part of the show saw 1.041m tune in – this was below the 1.452m it attracted last year.
The result was also below the overall average of 1.279m the dance show attracted last year.
Don’t you think Robbie looks like Colonel Sanders in that outfit 😛 Uncanny resemblance!
Hey Hey It’s A Dud.
Look at those big numbers, raw ratings data, nothing left to the imagination, no embellishments, easy to understand – & I thought TV was in it’s death throes, well, according to some folk on Mumbrella anyway!
Hey Hey, “Paddo”, if Daryl and the gang are getting 1.2 million viewers, the show is hardly a dud. Number 7 in the top 10 and 200,000 more than the dancing amateurs on Ten? Anyone in the business will tell you that a million or more viewers makes the networks and their advertisers happy. Get below that and it’s different. And, no, I repeat: I don’t work for Nine. “Network” is right. The mass audience is still on free-to-air so it’s hardly in its death throes.
I think the concern with the Hey Hey number is the trend. Can it sustain beyond the first few weeks of hype?
Hey Hey is a dud????!!! I really cannot believe that with it’s 1.2m viewers!
Just goes to show you ron.r that some of the folk commenting on this site have a/ no friggin idea what they’re talking about and/or b/ have vested interests.
A mistake putting sytycd on a Wednesday and Thursday. Sunday and monday were much better. People have lives on Wednesday and Thursday, but not on Sunday and Monday night.
With the exception of ABC News I would rather browse the net or play video games than watch the other tripe.
Clearly, Nesbit, given the FTV ratings, millions of folk enjoy the tripe!
‘Hey Hey It’s…Sat…no, hang on it’s on Wednesday. Whot! It’s now on Friday afternoons, but it’s still called Hey Hey It’s Saturday’ ? Oh thank god for that.’
What quality viewing….
Yes, TV has an audience but they must be a fine educated bunch with those viewing habits
