Cops LAC appears to have bottomed out, recording an increase in viewing for the first time since the series went to air.

Thursday night saw Nine’s cop drama rate 560,000, up slightly on the 487,000 it delivered last week after being bumped to the later 9.30pm slot.

Meanwhile, not a single Australian-made entertainment show rated more than 1m viewers, according to last night’s overnight metro ratings from OzTam.

Seven News, Nine News and Today Tonight were the only local programming above that level, while Nine’s CSI was the only other show to do so.

Not much in the way of ‘ground breaking’ happening at the Monkeys, is there?
