Beauty And The Geek storms to 1.4m
Seven’s Beauty And The Geek Australia had a strong ratings performance on Thursday in a night that saw no other entertainment show break the 1m mark.
Beauty And The Geek averaged 1.429m viewers, according to preliminary overnight metro ratings from OzTam.
The ratings were up an extraordinary 500,000 on last week.
Meanwhile, Ten’s documentary series Keeping Up With The Joneses rated 997,000 while Rush delivered a poor 707,000, 17th for the night.
My twitter feed was full of people talking about the show- similar to when Q & A is on, otherwise I probably would not have switched the channel over…
I have never watched the show before last night but cannot resist a good makeover segment!
Hi Pen,
Funnily enough, I caught a couple of positive tweets last night myself and flicked over to see what was going on for exactly the same reasons as you.
Cheers,

That’s a nice little win for Channel 7, but more importantly I hope they all noted who the waxing girl was – she’s a good friend of mine who’s recently started her own business and deserves to do well.

Oh, and couldn’t you have cut the list off at #13 so Two and a Half Men didn’t make it on there?
I was all ready to fire the how shallow is the audience bullet and ask what is it that passes for entertainment for the general populous. Treading the high road of self righteous intellectual elitism. Then I remembered that I’m taking my boys out Saturday night to spend 3 hours watching the Crusty Demons…
Good on ya guys. Hope you enjoyed beauty and the geek. But bet it’s dead in the water in four weeks though.
I LOVED IT!!!
Now that the Geeks have had a make-over and we cant recognise them, lets have the beauty’s have a make-under! I bet we wont be able to recognise them either!! he he
there is nothing on television worth watching on a thursday night… it was a race to the bottom with beauty and the geeks the outright winner!
Beauty and the Geek is easily the funniest show on tv at the moment. I’m not sure if Tamika comes up with her own lines or someone feeds them to her, but she is GOLD.
@R Mugobme – yes you are quite right, it will be dead in the water in 4 weeks because the show actually finishes in 3…. 🙂
@MC – I agree, Tanika is hilarious.. heart of gold but dumb as!!
My 14 year old daughter made me watch it.
And I’m surprised to say I quite enjoyed it.
(Hmmm. Maybe that makeover guy could help me.)
Beauty and The Geek – gold! Entertaining TV.
@Tony Richardson – I’m in my early 20s and it is the only program, after recently moving back home, that I watch with my parents funnily enough!
