(Thanks Oztam and Tribal Mind from the smh)

Great figure for SYTYCD last night, much higher then i anticipated, it, along with a solid 1.28m from TBL helped Ten win the night.

Seven wasn't far behind with their news narrowly beating N9N, Bush Doctors, The Zoo, K&K and Samantha Who? did quite well for Seven, nothing spectacular but a consistent night for them.

Nines night was determined by the weather funnily enough, the cricket was washed out after coming on and then off again, the probably would've come 1st for the night if the game was rain free.

Another great rating for SYTYCD, i'm suprised its doing so well, for Tens sake i hope it keeps up these figures even though i don't watch it, i like to see Ten close the gap on 7 & 9.

Speaking of which, Ten came a fairly close second to Nine last night with Seven a few % points off in third, Nine had a very good night with The Royal Family doco doing quite well, and both CSI's doing very well, both over 1.3m, CSI:NY's figure impressive considering its timeslot.

As for Seven, they had a good pre-7:30pm line-up winning all those slots, but after that there was very little to celebrate, Borderline and Coastwatch falling with increased competition, Border Security will return shortly so there will be a some very tight Monday nights to come.

Isn't that the show for fat women to dance to rediculous songs? That's what I was shown from the ad.

Terrible night for Nine, once again due to the weather in Brisbane, although i don't think that many would've watched anyway considering it was India v Sri Lanka.

Ten had a very good night once again with Bondi Rescue and an NCIS Repeat the standouts for Ten, both scored over 1.35m and gave Ten, along with TBL's 1.16m 2nd for the night.

Seven won the night with a pretty consistent line-up, Seven News and TT easily beat its opposition, while H&A just beat ABC news in the 7pm slot.
The Kylie show didn't fire at all, it got under 1m, i don't think it will last very long at all, especially if it costs Seven a Tuesday win.

Despite the poor lead-in though Sevens movie- Raising Helen did quite well averagin just under 1m, a result that would've given Seven the night.

[stephen_bayne]

I actually expected the Kylie show to rate less. Your average Joe just doesn't seem to share the media's fascination with Kylie.

Around 800k.

Around 800k.

Are you sure? The only times i've ever seen the 6pm Simpsons ratings its been around 650-700k.

Another very sub-par night for Channel Nine, with The Chopping Block not doing well at all, and all it had for competition was really SYTYCD which had another massive figure, Ten will be loving this show, it was hyped up something fierce during the last month and its payed off so far.

ACA and N9N didn't do too well for them either, Neighbours not far off ACA last night.

Seven had a consistent night just like Tuesday night to secure the win once again, just ahead of Ten. Their News and CA programs thumped their opposition, and H&A comfotably won the 7pm line-up.

Ten owned 7:30pm-8:30pm with SYTYCD while at 8:30pm A Touch of Frost would've definitely helped Seven win the night.

Spicks and Specks returned for the ABC at 8:30pm last night, not a great figure but good considering no Chasers following them, and also people may not have known it was on this week, i for one only found out a few minutes before it was on.
Little Britain Abroad did well for the ABC also, keeping most of the S&S audience scoring nearly 1m.

Good night for Nine, Their news and CA lost once again to Seven but they had a very good night thereafter.
Getaway, RPA, Kitchen Nightmares and even Two & Half Men all had good figures.

SVU Rpt did well for Ten, as did TBL and Neighbours, which has had good numbers this year, Ten will be happy with that.

Seven had a reasonable night, set-up once again by their News, TT and H&A. Amazing Race did well at 7:30pm, just beating Getaway, Out of the Question somehow managed close to 1m , possibly the lamest show in recent memory, Family Guy straight after dropped to under 900k which didn't give Lost much of a lift, yet it averaged a solid 912k over the hour or so.

Good to see the Question show is starting to tank.......it won't be long before they move Lost to 8:30 even though its figures were not flash

Yeah, its figures weren't flash but with OOTQ nearing its end they'll want something to compete with RPA, something really to lessen the damage as RPA is quite popular and i can't see many things that would beat it.

Good night for both Seven and Nine, especially Seven considering the cricket was on.

Seven News, TT and Better Homes all with solid figures for Seven, while Tomb Raider had a very good figure that clinched the night for Seven.

Nines cricket coverage gave them a decent result, Nine would've been peeved that it finished early, if it had've gone another hour or so they would've won the night as most would've switched to Tomb Raider after the cricket finished early.

Ten had a pretty woeful night, Friends dropped once again, a fairly poor figure even for a Friday Night. Neighbours dropped as well, not a terrible figure but when H&A still manages 1.15m on a FN it is worrying for them even with encouraging figures earlier in the week.
