Most Brazilians chose Globo to follow the results of the first round of elections: the channel abandoned much of its usual program design to prioritize journalistic coverage of the elections from the early hours of the morning, with live broadcasts during all commercial breaks of the regular programs . As a result, the public decided to continue watching the channel until the confirmation of the second round between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) and Jair Bolsonaro (PL), giving Fantástico a record viewership.
According to consolidated viewership data for Greater São Paulo obtained through the report of pop tv According to market sources, the historical edition of Show da Vida scored an average of 27.9 points and was tuned in by 43.3% of the connected TVs in the country’s main metropolis. The index, 48% higher than the last four Sundays, represents the second best performance by Globo’s electronic magazine in 12 years, behind only the 28th of 11/28/2010 (interview with Michael Jackson’s mother) and beating the 27.5 10/28 .2018 (End of this year’s presidential election).
Fantástico’s historical rating hurt virtually all other channels: Record, which decided to continue with its usual program and only did bulletins throughout the day, had its worst Sunday of the year at 4.1 in the midday points between 7am and midnight. SBT, with its tradition of ignoring all facts relevant to the country, followed in second place but saw Eliana (4.5) and Programa Silvio Santos (5.7) have their worst viewership figures, at 34% and 27 respectively % of viewers lost compared to four previous Sundays.
For RedeTV! The decision to sell the key period of the elections to a sect had devastating consequences: Amilcare Dallevo Jr. and Marcelo de Carvalho had an average of 0.3 points between 7am and midnight, was rated by Record News (0.7) overwhelmed and even beaten by Cultura (0.4) and TV Brasil (0.4). In the duel with Gazeta, the station managed a narrow victory the station operated by the Cásper Líbero Foundation only had its own productions from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. and scored an average of 0.2 points.
Finally, Band also benefited from the election coverage: Perrengue na Band (2.6) was broadcast earlier and even technically linked to Eliana’s program and caused Hora do Faro a headache. Then, with the news of the election results, the station saw its ratings increase exponentially Band Eleições (3.7) even became viceleader with Record and SBT, recording a peak score of 4.9 points.
