The TV Ratings Wars: Where Everyone’s a Loser (Except Stefano De Martino, Apparently)
Ah, the thrill of TV ratings, folks! It’s like watching a bunch of hungry piranhas fighting over a sinking ship. And, boy, did the ship sink yesterday, November 25, 2024. Let’s dive into the carnage, shall we?
The Unstoppable Stefano De Martino
It seems like Stefano De Martino has been drinking from the fountain of youth or something, because his show, Affari Tuoi, just won’t stop breaking records. With a whopping 5,856,000 viewers (27.14% share), it’s like he’s single-handedly keeping Rai1 afloat. Who needs a lifeboat when you have Stefano, am I right?
But, of course, with great power comes great…well, you know. The rest of the networks are struggling to stay afloat in his wake. Poor Chi Chi Cerci, which, according to Amadeus, is on the verge of early closure (because who doesn’t love a good TV funeral?). The show plummeted to 450,000 spectators (2.1%) in the first part and 576,000 spectators (2.7%) in the second part. I guess that’s what happens when you’re up against the unstoppable force that is Stefano De Martino.
The Satirical News Program That Satirized Itself
Meanwhile, Strip the News is trying to keep its head above water, but it’s not looking good. With 3,170,000 spectators (14.67%), it’s a far cry from its previous episode’s 2,964,000 spectators (16.4%). I mean, who needs satire when you have Stefano De Martino’s ratings to make fun of?
Five Minutes of Glory
But hey, not everyone is losing. Five Minutes with Giuseppe Conte as a guest managed to rise to 4,829,000 spectators (22.98%). That’s what I call a power move, folks! Bruno Vespa’s previous episode had 4,464,000 spectators (22.8%), but I guess Giuseppe Conte is the real MVP here.
The Rest of the Ratings
And, because we love a good underdog story, 4 in the evening dropped to 995,000 spectators (4.71%) in the first part and 904,000 spectators (4.14%) in the second part. Poor Paolo Del Debbio, who clarified the issue of alleged blasphemy on live TV, only managed to reach 983,000 spectators (5%) in the first part and 912,000 spectators (4.5%) in the second part.
The Silver Lining (or Not)
But wait, there’s more! Half past eight on La7 gathered 1,836,000 spectators (8.46%). I guess that’s what happens when you’re not competing directly with Stefano De Martino.
The Bottom Line
So, there you have it, folks. The TV ratings wars are a cruel, cruel world, but someone’s gotta win. And, for now, that someone is Stefano De Martino. Who knows how long he’ll keep this up? Maybe he’ll just keep breaking records until he becomes a human piñata filled with TV ratings gold.
Until next time, stay tuned, and try not to get too seasick from all the ups and downs in the world of TV ratings!
TV ratings yesterday 25 November 2024: Affari Tuoi exceeds 27% share
Stefano De Martino continues to shatter records. His program Affari Tuoi on Rai1 reached an astonishing 5,856,000 viewers (27.14%), a significant increase from its previous episodes, and solidifying its position as the leading program in its time slot. This feat has also put immense pressure on competing networks, which struggled to keep up with the show’s massive audience.
Affari Tuoi‘s success also had a ripple effect on other programs, including Chi l’ha visto, which, as admitted by Amadeus, is nearing its early closure. The show’s viewership dropped to 450,000 spectators (2.1%) in the first part and 576,000 spectators (2.7%) in the longer second part, a significant decline from its peak of 744,000 spectators (4.1%) on Saturday, which didn’t compete with De Martino’s program.
Furthermore, Strip the News also experienced a decline in viewers, with 3,170,000 spectators (14.67%), down from 2,964,000 spectators (16.4%) in the previous episode, which had seen the satirical news program offer a biting critique of Affari Tuoi regarding some questionable coincidences in the selection of packages.
On a positive note, Five Minutes saw an increase in viewership, with 4,829,000 spectators (22.98%), thanks to the participation of M5S leader Giuseppe Conte as a guest. This represents a notable increase from the previous episode, which had seen Bruno Vespa attract 4,464,000 spectators (22.8%).
