Radio Ratings (Survey 5)

[puddingfactor]

In Melbourne:
3AW continue to dominate.
ABC774 doing okay, but still well behind.
SEN's Run Home doing well, but breakfast down again.

Gold the best of the music stations but Fox and MMM closely follow.
Nova steady but Mix in huge trouble, particularly breakfast.
Fox also having trouble in the breakfast slot, now in 6th position.

In Sydney:
2GB is still number one.
Judith Lucy on 2DAY Breakfast under pressure, coming 8th.

3AW are killing them.
SEN are down slightly- looks like they will hover around the 3%. Their afternoons did alright after Dermie's comments and the brawl about 6 weeks ago.

Lucy in Sydney will need better figures than that. 2GB dominating (Yuck!). Price actually gained audience.

I suspect the SEN mornings are down because Bill Brownless is a moron and Gary Lyon is a wan ker.

I'm looking foward to the survey where they have the ratings for 12-6. See how much Tony Schibecci is killing them by.

My thoughts exactly. 'Morning Glory' was SEN's most heralded show when the station began but has fallen well behind 'The Run Home' because of the constant self-indulgence of its hosts. Lyon would be more value in a more discplined show but Brownless is a complete waste of time no matter what forum he is performing in. It's in serious trouble once the footy season ends.

You're keen, I'll give you that.

I don't think he does a bad job but I miss the Talk Sport feed.

Why did they stop broadcasting that?

Dermott is a bigger tosser

Fracis Leach is quality

Earlier in the season I loved SEN.
Now I rarely listen to them.
Dermie is arrogant, does not give listeners the time of day, and I think has lost the plot as a media person on the back of Hawthorn's poor season and off field dramas.
Matthew Hardy is just a knob. Anybody could contribute what he could, and probably be more funny.
The team in the morning is poor too.
Billy is on another planet. Once a week dosage on The Sunday Footy Show is enough, every morning is WAY too much.
Garry Lyon is just a smug on radio as he is on the TV.
Tim Watson is a good news reader, and was a good footballer, when it comes to hosting, both on TV and radio, useless.

KB and Francis Leach are both good value. At least they look beyond footy.

Having the same 5 ads in rotation is bloody annoying as well. Everytime they go to a commerical, I switch over, and rarely remember to come back. "Did somebody say "go postal" and "die you bastard"? Hi I'm Jacques from Zenium Math-O-Matic Computer Tutor.

Dunno, it was pretty good. Maybe they could have that instead of *shudder* The Ring of Fire

Who Cares. That garbage was a lot worse than anything we could dish up.

 

[mulhollanddrive]

Ring of Fire is by far the most entertaining show on SEN, considering they don't really bring any news of importance at that time of night (until the soccer starts).

Did they tell you where to go one night? Because that is the only thing that could explain your intense dislike of them. They are excellent and it's a shame they are hidden away on the weekends in the graveyard shift.

Perhaps they could be the new brekky show? Their knowledge of sport is vastly superior to that of the Morning Glory team.

i agree Bill Brainless is a tool, Lyon and watson are OK though

There's something not quite right about the way Tim Watson goes about his business. I'm not exactly sure what, but he's NQR.
