Season review on TV3: Who passes and who fails?

BarcelonaThe school year is coming to an end, allowing us to assess how TV3's television season has gone, maintaining its lead without any problems, but with joy spread throughout the neighborhoods.

NEWS

Midday news: excellent -

The midday news on TV3 is usually the program with the most share of the entire public schedule, and its following is consistently massive. However, this season's 27.6% represents a slight drop of 1.1 points, compared to 28.7% in the same period a year ago.

Evening news: excellent -

The same midday analysis applies to the edition hosted by Toni Cruanyes. It remains the most-watched newscast (in this case, in terms of viewers) and far ahead of the second-highest. Newscast, which can be seen from September, will be a catalyst.

Weekend news: excellent

Ramon Pellicer and Cristina Riba say goodbye to their Newscast With very good results. In the midday edition, they managed to increase three-tenths of a percentage point, up to 23.3%, while in the evening, they dropped eight-tenths of a percentage point, from 19.4% to 18.6%. Again, beyond the slight fluctuation, these figures boost TV3's overall performance, even on weekends, when it struggles a bit more to maintain its lead.

In the mornings: excellent

Although the viewer base is small, because radio dominates at that hour, Ariadna Oltra achieves very good results with her morning newscast: 56,000 average viewers and a 16.7% share, which is five-tenths of a percentage point better than last season's result.

Plus 3/24: approved +

Marina Romero faced the difficult challenge of taking on a format created in the image and likeness of Xavier Grasset, who had hosted it since 2015. In the case of its broadcast on channel 3/24, it has been compared to its predecessor: it has 24,000 followers and a 10% and a 2.3% share. In any case, it is still above the channel average. In its midnight re-broadcast on TV3, Romero holds up better and its 18,000 viewers and 4.1% of the audience share. share They are sufficiently in tune with Grasset's 23,000 followers a year ago, who accounted for 4.5% of the audience.

FICTIONS

As if it were yesterday: excellent

The midday soap is posting optimal results, showing no signs of wear and tear despite being in its eighth season. The 18.7% audience share achieved is an improvement over the previous year's 16.5%, which was already very good, as it led the network and pushed the average upwards.

Vintage: excellent

The breakout series of the season arrived through the small door of the summer programming, usually reserved for more modest offerings. Premiering in July of last year, this generational comedy starring Abel Folk, Lluís Villanueva, Carme Pla, and Diana Gómez achieved a 16.8% share and 266,000 average viewers, figures far superior to those of the more ambitious series that have preceded it in the time slot. prime timeProof of its success is that the second season is already scheduled for the fall.

The invisible evil: remarkable +

The return of TV3 to noir It ended with good audience results, with 256,000 followers on average and one share 14.5%. It's not a figure that significantly raises the network's average, which reached 14.1%, but the public network tends to suffer more from nighttime dramas.

Quotes: suspense

The return of Appointments: Barcelona It didn't capture the audience and didn't even achieve a double-digit audience share: only 9.7% of viewers chose to watch this romantic comedy, which garnered an average of 162,000 viewers.

RELEASES

I am and I will be: approved +

The contest presented by Àngel Llàcer, which sought the Catalan with the most knowledge of the country's culture, has not reached the channel's average, but it has more than saved the day: 221,000 average followers and a 13.4% audience share show that a significant portion of viewers, however, have connected with this contest. prime time.

Machiavelli's play: suspense

Halfway between theescape room and the psychological contest, Machiavelli's move has not caught on with the audience. It debuted in prime time with a modest 9.8% share, it was quickly relegated to midnight, where it continued to decline and even reached a low of 1.9%. The four episodes averaged 68,000 viewers and a 5.5% share for a show that will have to try its luck with digital audiences.

Choose a card: suspense +

The journey of the magician Pere Rafart through Catalonia was a modest undertaking, released in second prime time and which has often ended well past midnight. This is often an awkward time slot for TV3, as it hasn't established a strong position and tends to lose the lead it holds throughout the rest of the day. The 81,000 viewers and 5.8% are figures that, despite taking into account that it's a niche program, make it unsustainable on TV3's schedule.

Zenit: remarkable -

The substitute forEuphoria It didn't convince critics, but the audience has ended up adopting it. Up to 210,000 average viewers and a 13.6% share are more than adequate figures for a very competitive night like Friday's, for a format that sought to be intergenerational, but ended up appealing primarily to older viewers. In any case, Euphoria remains more relevant: the last edition, last season, had 232,000 followers and a 15.7% share of share.

Cook as you can: enough +

Marc Ribas is the Midas of TV3, who seems to turn everything he does into gold, or saffron. But with the contest Cook as you can The audiences have been half copper: the 138,000 viewers and 9.3% share are correct, but not spectacular, although it must be taken into account that it is a format low cost, designed to exploit the loyalty of the media chef with an unpretentious contest.

The Jungle: enough +

Xavier Grasset has been commissioned to raise the bar for TV3's afternoon audiences, replacing Ground floor. At the moment, the results are not encouraging, but there is an improvement compared to the previous year: 93,000 spectators and 8.4% of the audience share 98,000 fans and 9.3%, almost a point higher in share. However, it doesn't reach the channel's overall average, so the formula will need to be fine-tuned.

THE CLASSICS

Crimes: Excellent

Carlos Porta continues murdering competition with a format that doesn't notice the erosion of time: 426,000 average viewers and a 20.8% share make the program the most successful on TV3's schedule. In addition, the journalist improves on the marks achieved last year with the series Tor, which has already achieved optimal results with 366,000 viewers and a 19.2% audience share.

The Stranger: Excellent -

Another pillar of TV3's schedule is The strangerQuim Masferrer's program has once again had a (short) successful season with 419,000 viewers and a 22.6% rating. share. However, there is the reference to the previous season, in which one in four viewers watched the show (24.3%) and brought 457,000 Catalans to their television screens weekly.

Poland: excellent -

The upcoming season will be the 20th of the veteran political satire show and will continue to grow TV3's average. This year was especially complicated, because of the emergence of The Revolt It appealed to a similar audience. However, the average viewership of 296,000, with a 15.6% share, demonstrates that the program manages to secure good results even when Catalan political news enters the doldrums, although it does note a slight decline from 331,000 viewers and a 16.9% share.

APM?: notable +

This great mixer with a critical eye on television has already reached twenty-one seasons, and the ratings remain remarkable. Even more so considering that the program is TV3's biggest show, having been shown in different time slots throughout its run. This year, if we look only at the Sunday editions, it achieves 108,000 viewers and a 10.9% share in a difficult time slot for the network. These results slightly improve on the 104,000 viewers and 10.3% share of the previous show. share achieved last season.

Card Game: Excellent -

The restaurant competition hosted by Marc Ribas continues to perform like a dream, with an average of 314,000 viewers for the premiere episodes and a 17.6% share, consistently leading the night. However, it is experiencing some decline, as last season it had 345,000 viewers and 18.7% share.

Yourselves: excellent

Last season was marked by the return of Andreu Buenafuente with his own show on TV3 (monologues aside). The result was more than adequate, with 233,000 viewers and a 15.6% share for a minimalist, open-structured format. The second season performed even better, winning over 287,000 Catalans per week, 16.2% of those watching TV at that time. However, the comic has signed with La 1, so there are no plans at the moment to continue the show. Yourselves.

Collapse: notable

The beginnings of Collapse were tough for Ricard Ustrell, and the format had to undergo changes in direction. The recommendations have worked, as the 180,000 viewers and 11.7% audience share of the first season have grown this year to 198,000 and 13.3%. The program is not yet in the comfort zone of improving TV3's overall ratings, but it does manage to lead most Saturdays.

Everything moves: approved +

The battle for mid-morning programs is tough, with the Griso-Quintana duel on the private channels, and Ferreras doing damage on La Sexta, but Helena Garcia Melero manages to save face and score a creditable 10.7%, which was 10.2% a year ago. share does not lead to more viewers, who are stabilized at 48,000 (because each year the number of people connected to DTT decreases in favor of digital platforms).
