Baby Boom's Ratings Surge, Channel 14 Suffers Significant Drop
Channel 12 continues its dominance in Israeli television ratings, with its flagship evening news program attracting 11.1% viewership and 301,000 viewers. The competition for second place was fierce, with Channel 13 narrowly edging out Kan 11, securing 3.9% viewership (102,000 viewers) compared to Kan 11's 3.8% (101,000 viewers).
However, Channel 14 experienced a significant ratings decline, with its news broadcast falling to last place with a mere 3.5% viewership and 94,000 viewers, a concerning trend for the channel which had recently enjoyed higher ratings. This marks a considerable drop from its previous performance.
In primetime, Channel 12's program "Baby Boom" led the night with a strong 9.5% rating and 266,000 viewers. Channel 14's "The Patriots" showed some resilience, recovering from its news program's poor performance to claim second place in primetime with 5.0% (133,000 viewers).
Reshet 13 and Kan 11 tied in viewership percentage at 3.5% for their primetime shows, though Kan 11 had more viewers (95,000 vs. 81,000). In late-night programming and broadcasts of Selichot (penitential prayers), Channel 12 also led, while Channel 14 concluded its weak evening with very low ratings for its programs, including a Selichot broadcast that garnered only 0.6% viewership.
