Logies takes Nine to Sunday TV ratings win
While Gretel Killeen was dying on stage at the Logies, she was at least helping Nine to a massive ratings win for the night.
The TV awards show helped Nine to a 38.2% ratings share for Sunday, well ahead of Seven’s 24.4% and Ten’s 21.7%. The ABC took 11.7% and SBS 4%, according to preliminary OzTam TV ratings.
Top 10 TV shows on Sunday night:

Logie Arrivals – Nine 1.7m

Meanwhile, last week’s close ratings race finished with Seven passing Ten at the death to take top slot. However, it was still an unusual result for Ten to avoid a third place finish. Last week’s share: Seven 26.7%; Ten 25.5%; Nine 25.2%; ABC 17.1%; SBS 5.5%

Who wouldn’t watch a slow-mo train wreck, with bonus live punditry (tweets) from viewers and those there (Wil Anderson) for those in the know.
This was a unique event in that the tweets were plenty, over-taking the show in comedy value and insight.
I’m certain the tweetiness isn’t what propelled it to the top, so much as it’s Oscars-for-Bogans glitz, hence arrivals beating the main event.

I wasn’t at all surprised to see the reception Gretel Killeen received but would have thought that the ‘comedian’ crowd might have displayed a little loyalty to one of their own, (being in the same profession and all), but no, typical ‘pack’ mentality from some of the most “unfunny” comedians I have ever seen (Chaser). These people think that the only kind of humor there is , is that which makes a fool of someone else…..Well Chasers I hope the Italians and the Vatican give you a great big kick up the arse for your latest stunt cos maybe ….(just maybe) it will help you grow a collective brain and assist in learning a little respect and just what is ‘funny’ and what is not.
