Ten drops to third as MasterChef ends
Tuesday, 27 July 2010
In a post-MasterChef Australia world, the Seven and Nine networks battle for top spot in all people and Ten slips to third.
So it was on the Monday after the Sunday night in which MasterChef Australia and the 2010 Election Debate drew massive audiences.
The relatively unexciting Seven News topped Monday night with 1.597 million viewers in the five capital cities ahead of Today Tonight's 1.546 million.
Ten's new series Undercover Boss, which debuted after MasterChef on Sunday, held strongly with 1.406 million viewers while Nine's new US sitcom Hot In Cleveland debuted with 1.262 million.
Nine News and A Current Affair split them with 1.32 million and 1.281 million viewers
Nine's Two And A Half Men topped 1.2 million with one of its episodes and Ten's The 7PM Project attracted 1.199 million viewers as it showcased the MasterChef winner Adam Liaw.
Other programs to top one million viewers on a strong viewing night were Home and Away (1.108m), ABC News (1.042m), Good News Week (1.029m) and Nine’s Rescue Special Ops (1.015m).
Best of the ABC line-up was Australian Story with 905,000 viewers while Q & A had 687,000.
Seven's Under The Hammer had 899,000 viewers.
Nine won the night in all people with a 23.9 per cent share ahead of Seven's 23.7 per cent and Ten’s 21.3 per cent.
