Hm... SYTYCD seems to be suffering a bit due to its poor timeslot. Why they would play a family show at 8.30pm on a weekday is beyond me.

Agreed. Almost as stupid as putting Ugly Betty at 9.30, which one would notice is no longer in 7's schedule.....

Quoted from SallyJ

WoW even "Hole in the wall" is doing well very funny show...

Nothing about that sentence to justify my faith in humanity.........

Quoted from SallyJ

SYTYCD (USA) was brilliant last night ...

Was the super silly/annoying bey-atch judge gagged then executed!!?!

Like American shows are so much better.

I just wish the formulaic crime genre would die out.

Quoted from jerk

I don't know why the free to air channels keep broadcasting these low budget aussie made shows,
Is it so hard to broadcast 24/7 american shows?

I'd prefer more Aussie shows, low budget or otherwise.  I get tired of listening to American accents.

I agree, this year has seen a massive resurgance in locally produced scripted dramas, the majority of which are outrating US shows that have dominated the past few years.

The Strip does well in first episode. I'd expect that to drop a lot, it was a shocker.

I see "Make me a super-model" is not doing well at all..

I thought it would to see that Jen is hosting it..but then again I dont watch the show..
Jen might not be all that  

Yes, Model is doing quite s**t indeed. Next week might be more indicitive of how it will do with no Idol as competition.

By now we've all kind of assimilated them into our lives though, you hardly notice on tv. But, there are a LOT of different accents there, you really can't just say "american" accents.

Dancing clearly doing the job for 7, pulling average numbers but very competitive. Could change in coming weeks with news Underbelly 's first 5 episodes will be aired in Victoria on Sunday's

So between dancing, 60 minutes (60 seconds of journalism though), Idol and the doctor there were 4.97 mill viewers  

Thanks for posting ...

DWTS beat Idol mmm..

I cant wait for Underbelly,I will be watching ...

how many back yards can you see on tv...interesting..

Midsommer and the Doctor did well.  Two would be pleased with those ratings.
