Seven gives House Rules third season as it beats The Voice again, while 24 improves slightly
Seven’s House Rules has again beat rival reality vehicle The Voice on Nine, taking 1.652 million to the swivel chair singing contest’s 1.575 million overnight audience in the 7.30 pm time slot.
On the back of the ratings win Seven announced it had commissioned House Rules to return for a third season in 2015, claiming a 21 per cent increase in ratings over last year’s first season, which started very slowly in the ratings.
The Monday night audience share was won overall by Seven on 25.7 per cent with Nine following closely on 25.3 per cent, with the ABC in third place with 12.2 per cent.
Ten dropped under 10 per cent of the overall audience share with just 9.5 per cent after a another lacklustre Monday night for the network as MasterChef and 24:Live Another Day failed to rate strongly.
In the 8.30 slot 24: Live Another Day fell well short of the top 20 shows hitting number 28 with 376,000 which was an improvement on last week’s 325,000 viewers. Masterchef improved from 718,000 to 734,000 in the 7.30pm slot but was still languishing at number 14 in the top rating shows.
Nine News and Nine News 6.30 performed well last night taking the third and fourth spots with 1.340 million and 1.239 million viewers respectively.
At five was Seven News with 1.122 million with Nine’s A Current Affair next on 1.196 million then Seven News/Today Tonight following on 1.122 million.
Home and Away scored another million plus audience with 1.042 million fans tuning in, while a repeat of The Big Bang Theory garnered 1.038 million for Nine.
Revenge re-entered the top ten shows moving from 801,000 last week to 838,000 last night in at number 10 for Seven in the 9.15pm time slot.

So if former juggernaut Masterchef is around 750,miles down on any year the show has aired, the assumption being they went 1 extra year too many,ratings say 2, someone tell me and other readers how is Gant Denyer’s re hash of a 30 year old program going to make inroads into 2 established 1 hour news services with strong 5.30 lead in programs. Most 10 viewers at 5pm watch 7 or 9 as they are the older demographic and have an unquenchable thirst for news product.Think some research confirmed the theory. The 6pm show will last 1 month, bring down the project with it and another brilliant example of sound though thru programming.

Greedy, while your sentiment about Family Feud may be right, your reasoning is shite.
An example.
Take a 1990 UK TV series. Rewrite it to Washington. Throw in Kevin Spacey and an all-star cast. One of the hottest programmes on the planet.
