As expected Nine won Week 16 of the Official Ratings (Week 24 of the year) thanks largely to a high-rating State of Origin clash which returned 2.1 million viewers in the metropolitan markets.
While Rugby League won the week for Nine, it was the Rugby Union that lost Seven Saturday night which rates poorly in the markets that it is shown. A repeat of movie Richie Rich with just under one million viewers was all Nine needed last night for the network to secure the week.
The week's figures were
Nine 28.5%
Seven 26.7%
Ten 20.5%
ABC 18.3%
SBS 6.0%

Tonight Seven launch The Battle of the Choirs hosted by David Koch and while I am not a fan of the concept for the show, it’s debut will probably, for some reason be successful. Finales of Grey’s Anatomy and Desperate Housewives will also draw viewers this week while Lipstick Jungle and Private Practice are to be launched this month – possibly taking the place of Anatomy and Housewives next week?
Nine have no new shows or surpises on the cards this week apart from another David Attenbrough installment (next week) which has been a surprise hit for the network.
This week will be interesting but I think it may go to Seven.
