The channel’s best performing show was 60 Minutes, with the current affairs program attracting an audience of 1.086m at 7.30pm, following the premiere of new show The Embassy at 6.30pm which details Australians seeking help at the Australian Embassy in Bangkok, attracting an audience of 874,000. .
It wasn’t enough for the channel to claim victory, with Seven winning the night with an audience share of 27.4 per cent off the back of the grand final performance of The X Factor compared to Nine’s share of 20.1 per cent, well down from last week’s share of 31.8 per cent in the absence of The Block: Glasshouse.
Nine has flogging Gotham pretty hard, heaps of promos and teasers in the past week.
Wonder how the show has fared in UK/US markets and if it’s one of these shows they promise will be big but the delivery or content is a flop?
Episodes 3 and 4 of Gotham were already on the torrent sites which wouldn’t have helped.
Gotham is extremely violent, so parents would not let their kids watch.
Gotham is crap.
Free to air is crap
