Seven US drama series Revenge was the most watched program last night but lost 300,000 viewers without My Kitchen Rules as its lead-in.
Revenge saw 1.41 metropolitan million viewers tune in, according to preliminary overnight figures from OzTam. Last week, the series garnered 1.75 million viewers while the week before it pulled in 1.72 million people.
The decline in Revenge's ratings can be partly attributed to both the Easter non-ratings period and the program losing out without the successful My Kitchen Rules as its lead-in show for the first time.
Seven News, Today Tonight and Home & Away were second, third and 11th for the evening. Self-funded documentary McDonald's Gets Grilled rated 761,000 viewers in the 9:30pm timeslot and was ranked 16th.
Nine News was fourth with 1.13 million viewers while A Current Affair was ninth with 979,000 people. Three episodes of The Big Bang Theory was seventh, 10th and 14th on Monday. US drama series Alcatraz gained over 100,000 viewers this week with 644,000 people watching, up from 535,000 people the previous week.
The Biggest Loser was the most watched program on Ten in eighth position with 982,000 viewers. Bondi Rescue attracted 816,000 viewers in 15th spot.
