I think networks mostly rely on overnight ratings to sell advertising for the main part apparently. But surely their business models have to be changing. I haven’t had an antenna / terrestrial connection in years but admittedly was a pretty early cord cutter. I had Netflix before it was available here.Don’t most people stream things these days? Why are ratings even counted? Most people I know, myself included stream from catch up or apps?
The streaming numbers get added a week later I think.I think networks mostly rely on overnight ratings to sell advertising for the main part apparently.

What do the rest of the episodes look like? It’s hard to judge how the series is preforming based solely on the premiere.Episode 1 rose to 976,000 in total TV numbers. Less than 100,000 behind Lego Masters which was #1 entertainment. #3 in entertainment, #2 in the total TV 25-54 demo and had the highest increase for Total Tv amongst the top 20 at 43%.
I think the general audience that big brother has is watching it online only. No one I know is watching it on FTA, I’m yet to at all.
We won’t know until the 8th day after the episode airs. The premiere’s numbers were released this morning. Tomorrow last Tuesday’s will be available and so on so forth.What do the rest of the episodes look like? It’s hard to judge how the series is preforming based solely on the premiere.
Closes the gap but the on demand audience will decrease in line with the linear audience. I can't see those who stopped watching live suddenly starting to watch on demand, though granted the premiere may have attract live viewing in a way other episodes don't.Episode 1 rose to 976,000 in total TV numbers.

I think these streaming and catch up numbers will be what saves BB. It's like Love Island now, low live TV numbers but big streaming numbers. With each episode being around 90 minutes long with ads, not a surprise a lot of people are not willing to watch it live.Last Tues 10th May lifted 51% with catch up and online to a national audience of 902k

We’ll see how the numbers add up over the series… It seems the only reason Nine revived Love Island was to fill programming gaps left due to COVID. I can’t see Seven being happy with over half its audience not watching live.I think these streaming and catch up numbers will be what saves BB.
