Ten’s Sunday night share falls to 7.7% as Pilot Week kicks off
Ten’s Pilot Week experiment is yet to pay ratings dividends, with the first night of one-off programs leaving the main channel with a 7.7% share, behind ABC’s 13.5% and just ahead of SBS’ 6.0%. Seven’s multi-channel 7mate was not far behind Ten on 7.3%.
Ten’s first pilot program, Skit Happens, screened at 8:00pm and had a metro audience of 350,000, despite a strong lead in from Russell Coight’s All Aussie Adventures, which had 629,000. ABC’s Grand Designs (which ran from 7:40pm to 8:30pm) had 573,000.
Ten says Pilot Week is about more than just ratings
Watched about the first ten minutes of that and had to change the channel. I can’t believe that in a show full of “comedians” they considered any of the skits to be funny! They were all just painful to watch with no humour whatsoever. Hopefully the other pilot shows have a bit more potential.
it was a “comedy’ disgrace ….No wonder Ten is losing money
These shows are terrible. So is Pointless. Channel 10 needs to lift their game. Shows that degrade others are not necessary.
