TV3 finally finds some X Factor for Thursday nights

September 3rd, 2010

Having struggled to get anything to rate in the Thursday night slot, TV3 may finally have found something that delivers eyeballs to advertisers.

The two and a half hour premiere of The X Factor debuted last night with a 7.9 in the 5+ with 317,270 viewers but was still soundly beaten by TVNZ. Police Ten 7 had a 13.1 (524,680 viewers) while the Netball had 11.4 (455,350 viewers) in the build up and then a 14.3 (573,540 viewers) for the actual game. 

In TV3's coveted 18-49 demographic, The Netball still reigned supreme pulling a 9.9 to The X Factor's 9.3.  However, once the Netball finished, The X Factor picked up viewers giving them wins over The Vampire Diaries and This is Not My Life.

All in all, TV3 should be happy that they're didn't repeat Top Chef's 2.9 rating and in fact, had more people per capita watching in New Zealand than they did when the show aired in Australia.

TVNZ reporter drops F-Bomb during live stream

September 1st, 2010

Live TV is simply awesome. Unpredictable, dangerous and often times, funny.  Perhaps it's due to the ever-present cameras in our lives that we easily forget they're rolling and that at the other end of the cable are literally thousands of eyes watching.

As was the case yesterday when TVNZ's Ruth Wynn-Williams stood outside the Birdcage in Auckland as it was rolled up the street in preparation for the new Victoria Park Tunnel. Completely relaxed and seemingly oblivious to the fact that anyone might be watching, Wynn-Williams casually dropped an F-Bomb before flirting with One News' Rawdon Christie.
