  • i24News surpassed Reshet 13 in viewership during the Friday evening news slot.
  • Reshet 13's prime time show "HaMa'abara" recorded a low of 1.4% viewership.

  • Reshet 13's "Survivor" averaged 18.9% in delayed viewing, beating "The Masked Singer."

Reshet 13 has experienced a significant ratings collapse, hitting an all-time low for its news program, "News 13." The network's performance was notably poor, even for a Friday evening, with i24News surpassing it in viewership. "Ulpan Shishi," hosted by Danny Kushmaro, garnered 11% viewership, maintaining a lead in its timeslot but also showing a decline. Channel 11's news program followed with 3.6%, while i24News' "Kabinat Shishi" on Channel 15 achieved 3.1%, leaving "News 13" at a low of 2.3%.

Prime time ratings were generally low across all channels. Keshet 12 led with "Ahava Gdola Me HaChaim" at 8.6%, followed by Channel 11's "Erev im Shai Stern" at 5.5%. Reshet 13's program "HaMa'abara" recorded a mere 1.4%.

The ratings crisis for Reshet 13, headed by Assaf Rappaport, began earlier in the week. The semi-final of "The Voice" on the network only achieved 3% viewership, an unusually low figure for prime time. The following day, "Adif SheNish'ar Bich'ad" on Reshet 13 garnered only 2.5%. The finale of "The Voice" saw a slight improvement to 4.9%, significantly trailing Keshet 12's "HaZemer BeMas'cha" which attracted 18.2% and Channel 14's "HaPatriotim" with 6.9%.

Despite the overall downturn, Reshet 13's reality show "Survivor" is showing potential. While its live viewership did not surpass "HaZemer BeMas'cha," its delayed viewing figures indicate a turnaround. "Survivor" averaged 18.9% for its first four episodes, slightly edging out Keshet 12's "HaZemer BeMas'cha" which averaged 18.1% in delayed viewing. "Survivor" also reached over 800,000 viewers per episode.
