It's performance is definitely looking to be underwhelming and it could be a casualty which is disappointing as I'm enjoying watching these new episodes.

Ten might need to review their strategy of programming according to bloggers

"You Blogged. We got 532k!"

what was on Nine at that time as it looked like Seven bombed in that timeslot as well?

[bettestreep2008]

It's a shame that The Office is not rating very well - it is heaps better than that unfunny 2.5 men crap.

Oh well - viewers like me will have to settle to DVDs to watch the best sitcoms like Will & Grace, Cheers, 30 Rock, Arrested Development and now The Office.

BUT it is good news to see 7pm Project has been rating over 700K every night this week! Tonight will be a great test as it rated below 500K last week. Anything over 700K should help it's cause for continuing in 2010.

Quite surprised about Rescue: Special Ops. 900K for a repeat which only premiered a few week ago is pretty good.

Despite this show's "supposed" popularity on here and many numerous requests to put it in prime time, I am not at all surprised by its low ratings. After tuning in to see what all the fuss was about and having seen it on several occasions before I seriously couldn't sit through the entire episode and it astounds me how anybody can. But it looks like Australia is with me on this one, for a show that can't even get its camera angles right, whilst some here may find it funny, others would no doubt see it as amateurish and "stupid".

[turdall]

900k for Rescue special ops is great. It should improve big time next year especially if it is given a weekday 8:30 timeslot.

ACA and Today Tonight are very close in total viewers. Today Tonight beat ACA in total viewers but the real winner of the timeslot was ACA as it beat seven in the key demographics even with a loss in total viewers nine would be really happy with that.

Gary Unmarried is doing shocking figures and I am suprised that seven haven't gotten rid of it yet and just put it on 7two. Stargate is doing huge figures on 7two 170k for a multichannel is huge and mother and son is doing big figures at 7pm and giving seven an overall win at 7pm between commercial networks. HIMYM is definatly not standing up like it did last year - last year it was winning its timeslot, and probably against more competition, this year it is 4th in its timeslot and below 700k. I doubt this is going to help its cause next year. It is funny I LOVE HIMYM and am currently watching the first season on DVD, again, but I just hate the show on TV can't stand the ads in sitcoms and never watch sitcoms on TV anymore.

Good numbers for Rescue too; it should get a second season in another timeslot

[racerboi25]

'Rescue' repeated better than 'City Homicide' did on Wednesday night.

[Rus92]

Nine are now just plowing through the week arent they! Their more stellar lineup seems to be slightly more reliable than the mish mash of content the others have. Weird that a repeat of Rescue Special Ops did better than a repeat of City homicide on Wednesday, its all to do with the competition.

It premiered more than just a few weeks ago. It's been a few months.

But yes, it performed well. Looks like Nine is having a good summer.

The series only finished on the 25th October. That's less than two months ago. You wouldn't expect a program which aired so recently to rate that well, indicating many of these viewers are new. Considering the repeat of City Homicide on Wednesday was from series one back in 2007.
