800 Words rating well for TVNZ in New Zealand
New Zealand warms up to Australian drama 800 Words starring Erik Thomson

The Australian-New Zealand co-production 800 Words started screening in New Zealand this month and after three episodes have gone to air the series has settled with just over 400,000 viewers. That is a good number but it is not quite ranking #1 on Thursdays. It is more like #5 on the night behind the TV1 News, Police Ten 7, Highway Patrol and Shortland Street.
