Seven’s night as the children on MAFS were led away to the naughty corner, set to reappear on Sunday night. Nine ran second and the ABC just pipped Ten which had its best night of the week thanks to GoggleBox Australia (891,000 nationally). But it had no other support. The ratings have still not returned to the 2019 debut of just over 1 million people nationally.
In breakfast yet another rotten morning for Nine’s Today — 268,000 nationally and 183,000 in the metros. Seven’s Sunrise a touch higher on 450,000 and 270,000. Nine’s news hour was again well and truly whacked by Seven’s — by 297,000 nationally. Seven’s Miss Fisher’s Modern Murder Mysteries had 535,000 nationally, down from 741,000 on debut last week.
In the regions it was Seven’s 6pm News with 471,000, Seven News/Today Tonight with 464,000, Home and Away with 323,000, the 7pm ABC News with 322,000 and the 5.30pm part of The Chase Australia with 300,000.
