Married At First Sight beats My Kitchen Rules in first 2019 ratings
Married At First Sight slaughtered all competition as the Australian television ratings period went into full swing overnight.
Married At First Sight certainly made an entrance as the first real ratings competition of the year got underway on Monday night.
More than one million viewers across the five-city metro cities tuned in to watch the social experiment on Channel 9 where complete strangers are matched by experts and meet at the altar for the first time.
Channel 7’s debut of the tenth season of My Kitchen Rules pulled in a five-city metro audience of 816,000.
Ten’s strategy this year was to launch I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here! two weeks before ratings kicked off for the year to cement viewer numbers.
On Monday, the show registered a capital city audience of 676,000 people.
Online, some have criticised the show for lacking star power. The official TV ratings year kicks off on Sunday February 10.
