Nine’s Tricky Business debuts under 1m
Nine’s debut of family drama Tricky Business took under 1m viewers on Monday night.
The show, which aired after the network’s successful singing contest, The Voice, had preliminary ratings of 1.16m and was scheduled for a 9.30pm start.
However, as the show didn’t begin until 9.42pm, the true average ratings stand at 0.987m between 9.42pm and 10.42pm.
The Voice, which was had its first live show, won the night with 2.199m and ran overtime, from 7.30pm to 9.42pm, would have helped give Tricky Business an initial ratings boost.
The Voice was so boring last night, it needs spinning chairs or battle rounds to keep interest. I think I’m out.
The intro VO is copied very closely in the style of the excellent UK show Shameless

The Voice is boring. the only thing that kept people tuned was the blind auditions and the swivel chairs. people will turn away in droves as quickly as they tuned in. the live shows are boring, karaoke singing. no interpretation of the songs in any way. American Idol is much better australias got talent is much more entertaining.
Factoring in torrents, the highest rating show on Monday night was “Game of Thrones.”
Says it all really.
