A massive Sunday for Seven no matter how you spin it – Seven’s V8 Supercars Round 11: Bathurst D3 The Race (4th – 1,263,000) pulls a massive crowd across the day (that average is across six hours of coverage!); Sunday Night (2nd – 1,563,000) drops a big interview and pulls big numbers and isn’t hurt at all by its lead-in; and The X Factor Australia Live Performance (1st – 1,811,000) is still a couple of weeks out from its finale and draws nearly 2 million. Simply. Massive.
60 Minutes (6th – 1,006,000) is Nine’s best after Nine News Sunday (5th – 1,141,000), with Australia’s Got Talent (11th – 801,000) the big casualty for the night. Ten’s best Modern Family (ep1 new: 15th – 724,000; ep2 rpt: 14th – 743,000) now common place for them. Elementary (17th – 667,000) hanging in there with the audience.
