Offspring finales draws 992,000 while reality show The Bachelor lifts audience from debut
The season five finale of Ten drama series Offspring drew an audience of 992,000 metropolitan viewers last night for the last episode in which character Nina dealt with the anniversary of her partner Patrick’s death.
Ten are still in discussions with the show’s producers about a sixth season however, the strong result may well encourage the network to renew the key franchise.
In the 7.30pm battle Ten’s reality dating show The Bachelor also improved on its debut last week pulling an audience of 712,000 viewers (up from 692,000 viewers last week) while Nine’s The Block won the entertainment battle of the night with an audience of 1.09m. The Block won the 18-49 and 25-54 demographics, but Offspring topped the 16-39 demographic.
Seven’s offering at 7.30pm of The Force: Behind the Line got 882,000 viewers, whilst its 8pm show Highway Patrol took 865,000.
When will Ten come clean and provide the actual breakdown of figures for Family Feud by channel ?
Seems very secretive.
Can anyone tell me if Ten offer advertisers a spot in the program on both One & Eleven – that way we know we as advertisers when we buy a spot of Ten we are at least getting these ratings ?
Offspring – Compelling!
Channel ten want another season of Offspring. The producers don’t.
