The Block final pulls in 1.7m
Nine’s 2010 season of The Block may not have revived old glories but the winner announcement was easily the top show on Wednesday night, delivering an average audience of 1.712m.
The rest of the show averaged 1.305m, according to preliminary overnight metro ratings from OzTam.
Meanwhile, Shane Warne’s debut as a chat show host was solid, with Warnie delivering an average audience of 854,000 in the 9pm to 10pm slot.
On Seven, the City Homicide double episode final which ran from 8.30pm to 10.30pm averaged 887,000 and 779,000. And Ten’s The Good Wife, which ran from 8.30pm to 9.30pm rated 617,000 while House, which followed, rated 612,000.

Warnie was an awesome cricketer and I love hearing him talk about bowling and cricket.
I would love to see “Australia’s own Parkinson”, Andrew Denton back on and interviewing all these guests.

I am tired of seeing wash-up sports people tryng to construct a second career on television, specifically, when their background is laced with bad/unacceptable behaviour. Channel 9 seems to recycle these guys like there is no other talent out there.
I watched less than five minutes of this and then switched channels. If Mr Warne was a women, the word ‘skanky’ comes to mind. Those bleached teeth, blonded hair . . . . give me a break !!!!
Channel 9 offers televsion for those with an IQ of room temperature lately, at the expense for good shows, such as The Bang Theory, which is shown out of sequence.
Get some new talent – its probably cheaper !

@ cats meow – on their baby bonus plasmas! Question… what would Warnie look like if fake tan, hair dye, teeth bleaching and Botox were never invented?

Is there an article on Mumbrella about the Warnie show? Talk about a topic for discussion! It has taken over The Block on this thread…

@ anonymous. I havent received a baby bonus and paid cash for my LCD. Without all the stuff you mentioned, Warnie would just look normal and natural. Which would probably be better.

Warnie and Matty Johns both have shows? Smarten up Australia, these men are total duds.
