After a great year in 2001; The Seven Network was tipped to take number one honours in 2002 (or at the very least come close to it) as Nine was seen by many to be in some sort of 'disarray'; with 2001 seeing the network lose 11 out of 40 official ratings weeks to the perennial loser Seven. As a result the Nine Network dumped it's then CEO David Leckie and made tweaks to its programming schedule - the most notable being the axing of 'Sale Of The Century' after some near two decades on air.

However all the early media buzz surrounding the chances of Channel Seven did not eventuate – They struggled without AFL football and audience numbers for their offerings in other slots dipped significantly as well. As well as this, The Weakest Link
The Weakest Link (Australian game show)
The Weakest Link was an Australian game show based on the successful UK format, which aired from February 2001 until April 2002 and was broadcast on the Seven Network. Presented by Cornelia Frances, the show featured nine contestants competing for a potential prize of $100,000...

, a ratings hit in 2001, disappeared mysteriously from Seven's schedule by late April. Seven’s ‘5-City’ share plummeted to new lows and after just six weeks into the official ratings season they found themselves in third place behind Nine and Channel Ten. Seven’s share would recover in the latter half of the year – but came nowhere near rivalling Nine for top spot.

2002 was easily Channel Nine’s year; dropping only three out of 40 official ratings weeks (Seven winning the other three with Winter Olympics & Commonwealth Games coverage) and they dominated the most watched broadcast lists; its News and Current Affairs had a terrific year whilst their main rival Seven struggled. However 2002 also marked the beginning of the rise of the Ten Network which had some significant programming success in this year. Ten also scored another news coup; after being the first TV network to begin rolling reportage of the 11 September attacks in 2001 – 2002 saw them with the most watched news bulletin for the year with its ‘First at Five’ service reporting on the Bali Bombings of 13 October.

A notable event occurred on 11 March 2002 where Nine's Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

outrated Seven's The Weakest Link: The Mole Special, with 1.51 million viewers to 1.312 million. The latter episode saw a record low of $14,100 won, which was rounded up to $15,000 on The Mole
