The Block tops entertainment and key demos but Seven wins Tuesday
Nine’s The Block aired to an average of 911,000 metro viewers on Monday, easily topping the key advertising demos as the #1 entertainment show on the night.
The Block went the closest it has gone to the million metro viewer mark, on a night when its only primetime reality competition was Australian Survivor, with no The Voice on Seven.
#TheBlock was the no.1 entertainment show last night and continued to build pulling an overnight national average audience of 1.292m (metro 911,000 / regional 380,000). It was also the no.1 program among 25-54s, 16-39s and GS+Child. pic.twitter.com/gtUeLXmBrl

Seven just barely pipped Nine in the network share on Tuesday, with a 29.5% share over Nine’s 29.3%. Ten had 20.4% and the ABC had 13.8%.
Nine claimed victory in the primary channel share battle, while the Paralympics continued to boost 7Mate as it took the multi-channel share contest.
