The morning-programme’s percentage of Estonian television-viewers was 49% and the repetition was watched by 50 thousand viewers per average. The percentage of Estonian viewers was 21%.

The three series of television show “Suvehommiku Lood" ("Stories of Summer Morning”) was viewed by 96 people. 89 thousand of them were Estonians and 7 thousand viewers were speaking some other language. Women showed more interest towards the show (52 thousand) than male viewers (44 thousand). The number of over 50-years old viewers and 25-49 years old was almost the same - accordingly 43 thousand and 41 thousand. But the number of viewers under 25 was considerably smaller - only 12 thousand. The show was most intriguing to viewers with secondary education - 65 thousand. The number of viewers with basic education was 27 thousand and the number of people with higher education was only 4 thousand. The show was most popular among rural people - 44 thousand and the number of viewers from cities and smaller settlements was equal - both categories gained 26 thousand viewers.

The video-clip named "Jänki Jälgedes Hiiumaal" (“Following the Yankee in Hiiumaa Island") was viewed by 154 thousand viewers in total (together with repetitions) - 150 thousand out of them were Estonians and 3 thousand other language speakers.

Comparing to rural people, the people from bigger cities and settlements were more interested on the show - which is probably caused by the early time of showing the morning programme.
