Dwindling Ratings for Paolo Bonolis' "Ciao Darwin"

For Paolo Bonolis, January represents a pivotal juncture for his prime-time show, following a discernible downturn in ratings week after week throughout the autumn.

After a robust premiere boasting nearly 4 million viewers, "Ciao Darwin" experienced a dip, averaging a mere 2.7 million during the December 15 episode. This decline saw the show concede the viewership battle to "The Voice Kids," the talent show presided over by Antonella Clerici, which surpassed 3.9 million devoted viewers with a commanding 23% share.
