The Chaser’s Unbelievable Truth wins time slot in its second week
The Chaser’s The Unbelievable Truth won its time slot of 9.30pm in its second week on air.
The celebrity quiz show rated 520,000 and in 22nd spot for total viewers according to preliminary ratings from OzTam.
The show also won its time slot across all three key advertising demographics while placing fifth overall in 16-39, sixth overall in 18-49 and eighth in 25-54.
It saw only a slight drop from last week’s debut of 568,000 and 19th in total viewers last week.
Seems an strangely positive spin on a ratings drop? But I know everyone on here loves the Chaser ‘boys’.
The show isn’t their best – easy targets, easy jokes. But whatever floats your boat, I guess.
Well last week the Australian was writing about how terrible the ratings were even though it one its time slot.
It surprises me that people only seem to look at ratings in terms of who got the most viewers compared to other shows at the same time, rather than concentrating on how many viewers a show actually got. It’s not like network television is competing solely with itself, it’s competing with all other forms of entertainment for eyeballs. 520,000 people watching at 9.30 seems okay to me.
