Dance held up great, maintaining 1.6mil against tougher competition. I guess tonight will be its real test against Border Security and The Force (I have a feeling it may be the first show that could really effect BS, maybe even beat it - I hope so anyway).
Couldn't agree more, Paula. After 'Dance' I flicked to the ABC and watched Miss Marple and was so pleased I did. I always watch the Zoo. I am crazy about animals. Giraffes certainly don't have an easy time of it from the get go!
Haha just looked at channel nine's release on enews, lets just say it's a little fabricated. Dont get me wrong they had an alright night last night, but they only tell us what happened in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Ill take it the results in Perth and Adelaide were terrible, I feel so proud
Another pretty close night, this year looks like its going to be pretty interesting. Desperate Housewives, Border and the Force were all extremely low, though Dirty Sexy Money did quite well at 9.30

So You Think You Can Dance Australia took the No.1 show in 18-49, while Good News Week took the No.3 spot.
Wow. Supernatural rated REALLY badly. Well, I guess the awful timeslot change and crappy lead-in didn't help with the ratings (especially when you consider that many of the show's fans have school/work the following day ).
And a big EEW at Neighbours' ratings. It should be back in the 500-600k zone!

WMC did well, I'm surprised it went better than Terminator (although it didn't win in 18-49's). Monster House bombed, not that I'm suprised, and Bondi Rescue held up pretty well. It Takes Two didn't launch as well as I thought it would, hopefully thats a sign of things to come with these crap "celebrity" shows (or maybe people have seen what good reality TV is after seeing SYTYCDA?)...
I was expecting Monster House to not do too well...the previews didnt seem funny to me. I was also surprised at how well Women't Murder Club went. I guess we all just love a gud murder story!!!
