Reno Rumble halves on debut losing out to All Star Family Feud and ABC’s factual shows
The return of Nine’s renovation reality program Reno Rumble grabbed less than half the audience of its debut last year with 395,000 metro viewers tuning in last night, compared to 873,000 last year across Nine and Gem.
It finished fourth in the 7.30 timeslot behind Seven’s My Kitchen Rules, which managed an audience of 1.462m, ABC’s 7.30 (778,000), Australian Story (862,000 at 8pm) and Four Corners (676,000 at 8.30pm) and Ten’s All Star Family Feud which was watched by 674,000 metro viewers.
MKR was the most watched show of the evening and also the most-watched program across the key advertising demographics (16-39, 18-49 and 25-54) according to OzTAM overnight metro ratings.
Ten’s Melbourne Comedy Festival Gala showing had 474,000 viewers from 8.30pm.
Yes but when the Prime Minister is on 7.30 after sort of calling an election that’s going to change the equation a bit.
Reno shows are over (hopefully)
Last year Reno Rumble was an average quality show that was created by Nine as a spoiler program for House Rules. Then as now nobody really knew what the point of it was.
The viewers arent as stupid as Nine thinks they are and have spoken with their remote controls. Reno Rumble, Just like Hot Plate was another piece of rubbish that should have been relegated to the programming scrapheap of 2015.
Stand by for endless repeats of 1 series of Big Bang Theory……
A disastrous result for 9 — 3rd place for the night with audience share almost half that of 7. There will be much handwringing happening in the Nine bunker today….
lets all spare a moment for the sponsors who invested in this…
Where is big bang? off the menu now the reno rumble is on
@billy c …. That was the same for every channel mate, not specific to Reno rumble so not really justification.
Fact is, nine have successfully killed the Reno genre by putting season after season of the block on air. If it wasn’t for the news they’d have literally nothing. But no doubt they’re banking on the voice to rejuvenate their fortunes…problem is, 1 show does not make a schedule.
In my opinion they’re in serious trouble this year.
Maybe those annoying promos are to blame. They put me off. The promo department at Nine should be investigated for insulting the intelligence of the masses.
Never understood the appeal of renovation shows. It’s like watching paint drying, literally. Let’s hope these low ratings signal the end for this type of overhyped programming.
