ABC’s Hard Quiz pulls 776,000 viewers, beating the commercial networks’ prime-time offerings

The ABC’s prime-time line-up of 7.30, followed by Hard Quiz, helped the national broadcaster win the prime-time 7:30pm time-slot on Wednesday night.

Current affairs program 7.30 had 677,000 metro viewers, while Hard Quiz was the most-watched entertainment program of the night with 776,000. Both programs secured larger audiences than the prime-time offerings on the commercial free-to-air networks, with Seven’s Bride and Prejudice getting 583,000 (up from last week’s 525,000), Ten’s The Bachelorette on 601,000 (up from last week’s 537,000) and Nine’s Young Sheldon’s 580,000. 

Hard Quiz was the most popular entertainment program last night

The Bachelorette did, however, win across the key advertising demographics of 16-39s (222,000), 18-49s (342,000) and 25-54s (340,000).
