  • Keshet 12's "Eretz Nehederet" was the week's most-watched program with 18.8% rating.
  • Keshet 12's news broadcasts secured the top four spots in the weekly ratings.
  • Reshet 13 launched its new "Survivor" season on Saturday hoping to improve ratings.
  • Shalom Assayag's comedy "Ha'Ma'abara" on Reshet 13 garnered only 1.2% viewership.
  • i24News's "Kabinett Shishi" with Neve Daromi achieved 3.5% rating.

Keshet 12 continued its ratings dominance over the weekend, securing the top spots in both news and prime time programming. The channel's news division garnered 10.2% for its Friday evening broadcast, while its prime time show "Eretz Nehederet" achieved a season-high 18.8% rating with over half a million viewers. Another popular program, "Ha'Mitzvach Ha'Mefutzach VIP," maintained strong viewership throughout the week, with its finale on Wednesday drawing 15.0%.

In contrast, Reshet 13 experienced significantly lower ratings. Its comedy program "Ha'Ma'abara" starring Shalom Assayag, recorded a mere 1.2% in prime time. The channel is now pinning its hopes on the premiere of the new season of "Survivor," which began airing on Saturday night, aiming to reverse its recent ratings decline.

The new "Survivor" season, hosted by Guy Zuarz, features a mix of 10 anonymous contestants and 10 celebrities, including reality TV stars Shi Hai and Linor Sbinik, and TikTok influencer Gal Tamam. The show's casting has already generated buzz, with reports of a rumored romance between Shi Hai and Linor Sbinik, and anticipation surrounding the participation of Avi Shoshan, a panelist on "Ha'Patriotim."

Looking at the weekly performance, Keshet 12's news programs occupied the top four slots in the weekly ratings. Tuesday's news broadcast was the highest-rated of the week, achieving 13.6% and attracting approximately 425,000 viewers. Monday's broadcast followed closely with 13.4% and 401,000 viewers. Sharon Gal, who recently resigned from Reshet 13 and returned to Channel 14, had a segment that garnered 1.4% viewership.

Other channels also saw varied results. i24News's "Kabinett Shishi" program, featuring Neve Daromi, achieved 3.5% viewership, peaking at 4.4%. Kan 11's "Erev Im Shi Stern" secured second place in prime time with 6.5%.
