Here are the #TheChaseAus Chaser win rates for all new episodes aired in 2025. Unsurprisingly, similar patterns to what we saw for Season 15 shows (which makes up most of the below). The Supernerd is on a massive 26-game winning streak, getting close to Goliath's 28-game record!

@calzone325 Yes I assume so (S16, Ep7 in a four-new episode week, with the cricket special S16, Ep4 on the Sunday). Though I didn't see evidence of that in TV guides, unlike some other episodes that got moved.

@jamesstca Presumably this episode was originally scheduled to air on the Wednesday of the second week of new episodes (28th Jan)?

What a strong win by Goliath today, a perfect catch of 14 at a speed of over 13.5 questions per minute! A repeat of that and he could have caught 27. This on a Monday does make it feel like Easter is close, we'll see what Tuesday is like. #TheChaseAus

Meant to include some pictures of Larry entering and being up with the Chaser! Reminds me a bit of Double Trouble but with Larry as the other Chaser! That's a format I expect won't return, along with the Mega Money Spinner and Rematch specials. #TheChaseAus

Today we finally saw #TheChaseAus S16, Ep1 (originally scheduled for the first day back but replaced by Ep8). Unsurprisingly a great episode, with a very strong 21 steps from a quick team. I think that's the first time the host has ventured up to the Chaser's chair in an episode!

@bymysidebritsau I can't believe Matt said he was feeling generous then offered $20,000 for an $8,000 Cash Builder! Maybe it worked though!

The Final Chase music was edited to jump to the second half quite early on. If you know how it goes well you could easily tell Goliath was on track for a big win, and pick when it was about to happen (not ideal).

I assume the high offer taker (featured in the ad) was a key reason it aired on Monday. Great to see even though it was over quickly. So far we haven't seen a significant increase in high offer takers since the Mega Money Spinner was dropped.

The Thu 12 February repeat started well over 10 minutes late due to a LIV Golf coverage overrun. I think a combination of shorter ad breaks and editing cut the episode down. Only WA saw it normally. Friday LIV Golf, Monday Superbowl and the Women's Test had no real impact on TCA.

The Wed saw a record 7 extra steps offered to a solo player with 8 steps, almost doubling the target! At a cost of $6,000 out of $16,000. And then for the contestant to ask for one extra step on top of that at no cost! Can't believe Goliath considered more. Luckily he won easily.

So good to see top #TheChaseAus X poster @bymysidebritsau on the show today, much deserved! Nice individual and team work to get a win, with 16 steps and a strong push back performance! Firepower not offered and not required, just a very enjoyable game.

I liked Larry giving a different contestant the selfie she wanted for her son during the show! And then displaying it on the game board. Easy catch of 15 for Goliath the next Mon, interesting he seemed to change the Firepower cost from $5,000 to $4,500 (remembering incorrectly?).

Technically there are no longer non-ratings periods, though I don't think that will impact how Seven schedule TCA. Regular programs will still often have new episode breaks over Summer, and more new shows before and especially after Easter will continue. tvtonight.com.au/2026/02/rating…

The bad news is it's still not clear to me if/when Seven will increase from two new shows a week. This week will be the fifth in a row, and the week of Good Friday seems likely the same. I will be quite concerned if we don't see three a week after the Easter fortnight/MAFS final.

We're up to the tenth week with new #TheChaseAus episodes this year, and the last before what has in most years been Easter Repeats. The good news is it is now clear there will some new episodes in that fortnight, as has been the case in more recent years!

@bymysidebritsau I think they do have a producer who helps with lines, though I suspect the Chasers still have a good amount of input.

Do the chasers come up with their own banter or is there a producer writing these punny things? #TheChaseAus

Today's #TheChaseAus episode airing now instead of the day new episodes returned meant The Supernerd matched Goliath's record 28-game broadcast winning streak, before losing in S16, Ep19! If the original schedule remained he would have had a 26-game streak. Amazing run!

@HK8633057471020 We'll have to watch out for any further developments. Though it is also possible they didn't bother putting him in when he isn't going to appear in the season and he's also not 'diverse'.

@HK8633057471020 That's right, I am concerned it means he won't be back anytime soon if at all. Saving money would probably be the main reason, Mark would be the most expensive Chaser (possibly along with Anne). Seven are not in a good financial position.

Interesting theme on #TheChaseAus today, friends who love boy bands. That might be the main reason the episode was on Monday since The Governess caught their 16 steps (including Firepower) without error! Monday perfect Final Chases are especially rare at this time of year.
