Ratings Breakdown:
Game two of San Francisco vs. Kansas City on “The World Series” (Royals 7, Giants 2), as expected, led Fox to a Wednesday night overnight victory. The network averaged an estimated 8.9 rating/14 share in households from 8-11 p.m. ET, peaking in the 10 p.m. half-hour at a 10.3/16. Comparably, this was five percent above the 8.5/14 for game one of San Francisco vs. Kansas City on Tuesday (8.5/14). And that game translated into 12.19 million viewers and a 3.4 rating/11 share among adults 18-49, based on the Live + Same Day data, which tied the 2012 Texas-San Francisco match-up as the smallest opening World Series ratings sever.

One year earlier, game one of the St. Louis Cardinals at the Boston Red Sox on “The World Series” averaged a 10.0/17 in the overnights on Fox (on 10/13/13), with game two at a 9.2/15 on 10/24/13. In other words, while San Francisco vs. Kansas City is by no means a powerhouse, it has still lifted struggling Fox (which is obviously hoping for a seven-game series).

In sophomore season-premiere news, CW drama “The 100” opened with a 1.2/ 2 in the overnights at 9 p.m. (#5), which was 20 percent below failed year-ago occupant “The Tomorrow People” (1.5/ 2 on 10/23/13) and 37 percent below the 8:30 p.m. portion of lead-in “Arrow” (1.9/ 3). Last season, “The 100” debuted with a 1.9/ 3 on March 19 (and that translated into 2.73 million viewers and a 0.9/ 3 among adults 18-49, based on the Live + Same Day data).

Overall, “Arrow” on The CW averaged a 2.0/ 3 from 8-9 p.m.

Despite facing “The World Series,” the competing networks were all on par from one week earlier. Veteran “Survivor” on CBS, which took a turn for the better by mixing up the teams, finished second at 8 p.m. with a 5.8/ 9 in the household overnights. And that should translate in the vicinity of a 2.3 rating among adults 18-49. Next was “Criminal Minds” at a third-place 6.3/10 at 9 p.m., which dipped by 16 percent from the 7.5/12 one year earlier, followed by week four of drama “Stalker” at a series-low 4.8/ 8, which was 28 percent below “CSI” one year earlier (6.7/12 on 10/23/13).

One potential option in the near future for CBS might be to shift “Criminal Minds” to Wednesday at 10 p.m. out of a new drama option at 9 p.m. How about “CSI: Cyber,” CBS, which will be lost on Sunday?

“Modern Family,” of course, was the Wednesday standout on ABC with a 7.2/11 (#2) at 9 p.m. And it led into full-season renewed freshman “Black-ish” at a 5.7/ 9 (#3) at 9:30 p.m., which was 12 percent above the 5.1/ 8 one week earlier. Comparably, overnight retention for “Black-ish” out of “Modern Family” of 79 percent was better than the 55 percent for “Super Fun Night” out of “Modern Family” on the year-ago evening.

Earlier in the evening on ABC was “The Middle” at a consistent 5.0/ 8 at 8 p.m. (#4), followed by compatible “The Goldbergs” at a 4.6/ 7 (#4) at 8:30 p.m. Quiet “Nashville” capped off the night with a fourth-place 3.9/ 7 at 10 p.m., which was equal to one year earlier and could ultimately land a fourth season renewal if ABC is in need of more episodes for off-network.

Over at NBC, older-skewing “The Mysteries of Laura” scored a third-place 5.5/ 9 at 8 p.m., which was a hefty 49 percent above former time period occupant “Revolution” on the year-ago evening (3.7/ 6 on 10/23/13). And the improved lead-in support remains beneficial to veteran lead-out “Law & Order: SVU” (#4: 5.0/ 8 at 9 p.m.), which rose by 16 percent year-to-year. Sophomore “Chicago PD” was flat from one week earlier at a 4.6/ 8 (#3) at 10 p.m., which was 44 percent above the revival of failed year-ago occupant “Ironside” (3.2/ 6 on 10/23/13). Chances are NBC will be announcing a full season episode order for “The Mysteries of Laura” at any moment.

About the Daily Ratings

Each day (except Sunday) during the main TV Season we post the TV Ratings for the previous nights primetime shows for the major broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, CW, FOX, NBC). Cable Network ratings will be added to the Ratings Database.

The first item that gets posted (normally around 2pm GMT) is the early overnight analysis based on the early household numbers (these are not the same as the Total Viewers and 18-49 Demo numbers that are posted later).

Next, if available, we will post the Top 25 Market 18-49 Ratings to give you a rough idea of the ratings to following.

Later on (normally between 4pm-5pm GMT) we post the official early overnight Total Viewers and 18-49 Demo numbers in the table above.

Finally, later in the evening (10pm-11pm GMT) or the following day, the final adjusted ratings numbers are released, these are then posted in the Ratings Database. The Final Adjusted numbers are what we use for all our Renew/Cancellation Tables, Full Season Tables, Ratings Scorecards etc (see below). Friday's Final Adjusted Ratings are normally available on the following Monday.

  1. Excellent for Black-ish.


    Ouch at The 100. It use to retain a lot more out of Arrow. It may skew younger but doubt it.


    Series lows in overnights for TMOL and Stalker, even Criminal Minds looks kinda low.

    ReplyDelete
  2. I'll wait to see The 100's demo before making any judgment, but I hate to see it's low on the HH :(. But then again The Originals scored a 0.7 with a 0.9 in HH, so patience is a must... it's just not looking that good right now. Hopefully both The 100 and Arrow did good

    ReplyDelete
  3. great for abc comedies

    ReplyDelete
  4. I don't get how Nashville is a loser when PD and it do roughly the same in the demo

    ReplyDelete
  5. Go Black-ish!!!!! That episode last night was once again fantastic!!!

    ReplyDelete
  6. Also, The Goldbergs returned even!!

    ReplyDelete
  7. well at least Arrow is up in the HH ratings from last week.

    ReplyDelete
  8. NOOOOO. I hope Marc and the overnights are wrong, I don't want the 100 to do badly.

    ReplyDelete
  9. seriously the 100 was amazing!

    ReplyDelete
  10. I keep on saying CBS should put CSI back on Wednesday night... CM / CSI was strong...

    ReplyDelete
  11. I personally feel it's time to end CSI, it had a great run

    ReplyDelete
  12. I often disagree with him and I definetely don't think we can do this based on the overnights, but based on past weeks, my argument would be: Chicago PD does a tad better than Nashville in the demo, Chicago PD has much more favorable subdemos (particularly with males) and Chicago PD holds its lead-in much better than Nashville which often posts ~50% retention.

    ReplyDelete
  13. The 100 was so good yesterday.

    ReplyDelete
  14. What's The 100 about? I been having way too much free time at work(7 and a half out of 8 hours) and while i spent most of that time writing i wanted to see if i can watch another show...

    ReplyDelete
  15. I hope Arrow does better than last week and The 100's demo is much better.

    ReplyDelete
  16. HH are the same as for the S3 premiere, up from 1.9 it did last week. Lets hope for the best.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Hopefully Arrow goes up this week

    ReplyDelete
  18. Let's hope it's only the world series competition and not a real decline. Andof course, better demos

    ReplyDelete
  19. I agree they need to end give a decent ending to the show. Though it was a big mistake to put it on Sunday night... I hope they'll renew CSI for one more year to end it and give it a better time slot... It has much more potential than ending on Sunday at 10.30pm

    ReplyDelete
  20. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 3:03 PM

    NOOO!!! OH I so hope the actual demo is higher for The 100!

    ReplyDelete
  21. CW would have done better premiering the 100 last week.

    ReplyDelete
  22. 0.6 in the top25 markets for the 100.. I am depressed right now.

    ReplyDelete
  23. SO I guess Arrow will be 0.8-0.9 and the 100 will be 0.4-0.5

    ReplyDelete
  24. Agreed. CSI pretty much won the time slot every week. Stalker is not the hit that CBS envisioned.

    ReplyDelete
  25. doesn't it usually adjust down?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Arrow appears to be up or even so I am not sure we can point to that. I am really fearing a series low at this point since the cw always tends to decline from the top 25 markets. So sad.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I see a short final season

    ReplyDelete
  28. Criminal Minds always gets hit hard from World Series and CMA's. Moreso than even the Olympics or Thanksgiving Eve. It's quite strange

    ReplyDelete
  29. IT could still be the WS. Arrow was uncharacteristically down last week.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 3:11 PM

    From the Top 25? Yes but I posted that before the top 25 went up :( Hopefully by some miracle it goes higher

    ReplyDelete
  31. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 3:11 PM

    Same :(

    ReplyDelete
  32. Dont CBS shows usually adjust up?

    ReplyDelete
  33. I really hope The 100 gets at least a 0.6. I seriously don't want the show to get canceled. It's really good and there's nothing like it on tv.

    ReplyDelete
  34. biggest mistake if they cancel it

    ReplyDelete
  35. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 3:14 PM

    I'm not sure I don't really follow CBS ratings other than Scorpion, I don't remember it going up

    ReplyDelete
  36. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 3:15 PM

    It's CW's best show by far imo, but even a 0.6 isn't good enough for a premiere, it would definitely drop over the season :(

    ReplyDelete
  37. not always...

    ReplyDelete
  38. I pray that you are right.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 3:16 PM

    Oh, I don't follow Stalker, but there ya go :)

    ReplyDelete
  40. 100:( At least Arrow seems ok, even with the WS. Last night's episode was the one I was looking forward to the most, just not what I expected. Not as much Malcolm/Thea as I thought.

    ReplyDelete
  41. if the ratings are low it's not really a mistake though

    ReplyDelete
  42. like u mean in the market or the final ratings?

    ReplyDelete
  43. 100 is toast if iZombie or Messengers do better

    ReplyDelete
  44. Not really. iZombie is WB and The Messengers is CBS. The 100 is a co-production. If The Messengers does well then Reign or Jane are toast.

    ReplyDelete
  45. i really hope they did some mistakes with those markets ratings

    ReplyDelete
  46. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 3:18 PM

    Going up from the market ratings

    ReplyDelete
  47. yup last week was 1.5 and the final ratings went up to 1.7

    ReplyDelete
  48. Arrow's top 25 last week was also 1.1 right?

    ReplyDelete
  49. I would not be surprised to see CBS making some changes. Even if CSI has only 18 episodes this year it could be back on Wednesday if Stalker dips too much on the next few weeks. Stalker and CSI could be switched.

    ReplyDelete
  50. ABC: It has to hope that Black-ish remains stable and then builds for next season. It's getting to the point where it might take over a tentpole position in a season or two.
    CBS: I just don't see Stalker making it past this season, unless CBS cancels a lot and is really concerned about its drama development for next season. Also, CBS should consider moving CM to 10:00 PM and trying to use the still-strong Survivor to boost a new show.
    CW: Ehh, whatever.
    NBC: I still think it should considering blowing up this night, but what it does with the shows is far from clear. Maybe it could try them on Saturdays.

    ReplyDelete
  51. I have a feeling The 100 will be fine. If it does 0.6 constantly, it should get renewed.

    ReplyDelete
  52. If it does terrible and gets to Reigns numbers it is definitely toast no matter who owns what ... CW needs to do amazing to survive past next season not subpar

    ReplyDelete
  53. Yes, that's true but The Messengers doing well won't affect The 100 it will affect the other CBS shows.

    ReplyDelete
  54. that's if the .06 sticks in the final

    ReplyDelete
  55. Really? I seem to remember it being a 1.1 lol. so the demos might go up from last week's 0.8

    ReplyDelete
  56. It depends on the show. Some go up, somo go down. Marry Me stayed the sane yesterday, so we cab expect the ratings to be somewhere near the esrly ratings, but we can't tell if its going up or down

    ReplyDelete
  57. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 3:23 PM

    I'll be surprised if it's able to hold 0.6 each week, although I was surprised it was able to do it last season as well so who knows :/

    ReplyDelete
  58. It's unlikely the actual rating will be 0.6 so. It will more likely be 0.4-0.5.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I don't remember CW shows holding its top25 markets results. They always tend to go down.

    ReplyDelete
  60. I live overseas and I don't understand why everyone talk about the cw when it gets the worst ratings. LMFAO
    The cw should have the best ratings, based on the comments. It's nonsense!

    ReplyDelete
  61. seriously why can cw hit more than 2.0?

    ReplyDelete
  62. 100 is still CBS whether it is co produced or not... I think WB and CBS would both rather cut their loses on something owned by both than something owned solely by one or the other in order to bring something better

    ReplyDelete
  63. CW shows are popular online.

    ReplyDelete
  64. I really don't know!

    ReplyDelete
  65. It does look bad for Stalker, doesn't it?

    ReplyDelete
  66. Well Arrows top 25 is up from last week. So hopefully that translates into a 1.0 or 0.9

    ReplyDelete
  67. Thanks for the explanation. I think you are right but still. They are too low.

    ReplyDelete
  68. mm interesting so it would make sense if it got a 0.9.

    ReplyDelete
  69. The CW is distributed to a smaller number of markets/homes unlike the big networks like ABC/FOX/CBS/NBC which is distributed to a much larger number of homes.

    ReplyDelete
  70. CM does very well - it holds or building on Survivor and is opposite a similar "type" show (SVU). No, CM shouldn't be shuttled to 10 to suffer drop, but continue to be used to feed a 10 pm. show. Stalker seemed like the perfect fit, but it is bad. I tried to watch it 3 times - during different segments (at least 10-15 minutes) and nothing about it makes me want to keep watching

    ReplyDelete
  71. I don't see CBS cancelling a lot as well, usually most of their new shows are flopping... They are mostly known for NCIS, Criminal Minds and CSI (worldwide). Even if those shows are down they are earning a lot of money thanks to their WW lucrative success which is not the case of the news shows + shows like Person of Interest, Blue Bloods and Hawaii 5-O. + They are already cancelling Two and a Half Men and Mentalist after this year. To me Stalker is going to be cancelled and probably CSI Cyber (I can't see it doing well with a debut on Sunday at 10pm...). Maybe Blue Bloods or Hawaii.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Oh! I understand. Things like these don't exist in my country.
    Thanks for your reply.

    ReplyDelete
  73. yeah :) i hope the 100 atleast do a 0.5, or even better if they hold the 0.6 I always cheer for the CW.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Yeah, I have to admit that the show turned out to be something different to what I was expecting. No, I don't see Stalker lasting five seasons and CBS only keeps shows that have the best ratings/demos. They got high expectations.

    ReplyDelete
  75. The Mysteries of Laura is hanging on to that 1.3.

    ReplyDelete
  76. It was a great episode last night. If it's up, especially against the World Series, the CW will be haplh

    ReplyDelete
  77. To be fair, the difference is quite minimal. The CW is available in more than 95% of the markets last I've heard, so I am not really sure we can use that as a proper reasoning. I think it's simply a lower viewed network despite it's abnormal popularity online which skews our perceptions.

    ReplyDelete
  78. 9pm shows do. SPN always does or goes down 0.1 only, 8 pm shows always go down more.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Oh, I always thought that it was not distributed in as many markets. I guess I need to read up more in Wikipedia ;)

    ReplyDelete
  80. I hope you're right then!

    ReplyDelete
  81. Well, POI and Elementary were both recently solid into syndication in the U.S.
    I don't see many obvious targets for cancellation. Even shows that are kind of, sort of question marks--Madam Secretary, for instance--are doing well enough to get a renewal. Plus, there's syndication for a bunch of shows, as you said.
    A new show doing well means one less slot, sure, but CBS still has the option of having shows share a time slot. My guess is, they will wrap up a show like TGW earlier than normal next year, if it is in fact the last season, and then premiere something new in the slot in the spring. I could even see them doing this for something like CM or Elementary. Best of both words, to some degree.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 4:08 PM

    The 100 got a 0.5, half hours were 0.5/0.5...I'm sad now


    I seriously hope it goes up next week, I'm just gonna blame the world series

    ReplyDelete
  83. What's the site for the subdemos again?
    To what you added, I'd say there's the Dick Wolf factor. Both CPD and CF seem like the sort of show that would do well in syndication. NBC owns both, and it was patient with CF, so perhaps, with more time--CPD is only in its second season--it could get stronger, too.

    ReplyDelete
  84. But I think it could hold that audience if it moves to 10:00, and that would be a plus for CBS. Survivor still does pretty well in the demo, and it could be good support for a new show. Win-win for CBS.

    ReplyDelete
  85. It is probably the WS. The premiere was really good so I think it will go up next week.

    ReplyDelete
  86. the 100 doesnt deserve those ratings at all!

    ReplyDelete
  87. Me too. At least is doing better than Reign so it's not the lowest rated show.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Please an adjusted for The 100

    ReplyDelete
  89. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 4:12 PM

    Only by 0.1 though :/ I guess we'll have to wait and see how it does next week but it's not looking good

    ReplyDelete
  90. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 4:12 PM

    I really hope your right!

    ReplyDelete
  91. im so happy that Stalker is stable

    ReplyDelete
  92. Arrow up from last week with a 0.9!

    ReplyDelete
  93. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)look from 1.3-to 1.7

    ReplyDelete
  94. Arrow's up!!!! Yes!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  95. Fionn (was Teen Wolfers)October 23, 2014 at 4:18 PM

    If only The 100 rose like that!

  98. I am so happy Arrow is up, I was really worried it would hit a new low from the World Series.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Can anyone tell me the site for the sub demos? I can't recall what it is.

    ReplyDelete
  100. It's official Black-ish is the best new comedy of this fall for me.

    ReplyDelete
  101. My favorite new comedy now.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Damn for The 100 i was expecting 0.6 to 0.7. The goldbergs is doing great on that new slot. way better than tuesdays.

    ReplyDelete
  103. Not good for The 100, Flash repeats did better

    ReplyDelete
  104. Ya but the 95% is still the lowest network coverage out of the 5 networks. Then there is the fact that CW's major demo is young people which tend not to be Nielsen viewers.

    ReplyDelete
  105. Let's hope when the world series ends, The 100 will do better.

  107. I'm going to blame the CW for starting the new series of the 100 when the world series is on.

    Lol that's what im doing to, I don't understand why they premiered it so late tbh, they didn't need to put repeats of The Flash after Arrow at all, it was always going to do really well

    ReplyDelete
  109. Did about the same, but yeah, not really good

    ReplyDelete
  110. Praying for The 100 to adjust up

  111. CW press release

    via press notes:

    Facing Game 2 of the World Series, Arrow hit the mark last night, scoring its best rating in M18-34 (1.1/5) since 1/29/14, and rising +29% week to week in A18-34 (0.9/4), matching its season premiere.

    Arrow also rose +12% week to week in A18-49 (0.9/3), +8% in total viewers (2.5M), and jumped +40% in W18-34 (0.7/3).

    Arrow was #2 (tie) in the hour in M18-34 and beat NBC in the hour in A18-34.

    Versus this same week last season, Arrow was up +12% in A18-34 and +38% in M18-34, and even in A18-49.

    The season premiere of THE 100 returned in line with last season's finale, matching its A18-49 rating (0.5/1) and off slightly in total viewers (1.6M).



    Week to week, The CW's Wednesday night was up +20% in A18-34 (0.6/2), up +2% in total viewers (2M), and even in A18-49 (0.7/2).

  112. Even if Messengers does well,Reign is closer to syndication.The 100 is probably gonna be two seasons and done since it won't have 44 episodes.Reign will be renewed over Jabne,Messengers,The 100.Heres how it'll be
    First the shows that are doing well:Arrow,Flash,SPN,VD( unless contract negotiations go poor and this is made the last season.
    Then the middling to poor rated performers close to syndication:TO,Reign
    Then whatever other show or two left needed to fill the schedule and still pick up 4-5 new shows

    ReplyDelete
  113. Sad about The 100, but I figured this would happen because the CW didn't really promote it much. I'm hoping it's party because of the world series?

    ReplyDelete
  114. Meh Arrow. Ouch ouch ouch The 100.

    ReplyDelete
  115. Arrow did a pretty good job. I think it lost some of the 18-49 demo, but it rose up in total viewership.

    ReplyDelete
  116. Agreed.
    It is the only new sitcom that makes me laugh consistently...


    Wait and see about the McCarthy's though... I know most on this site panned it, but it could prove to be one of those CBS comedies that gets good ratings despite not being funny to people here. I did not love the promos, but you never know...

    ReplyDelete
  117. its up from last week. And had the same demo in 18-34 as for their premiere.

    ReplyDelete
  118. Why meh? It increased from last week and against the World Series.

    ReplyDelete
  119. True. I guess I just have overly high expectations.

    ReplyDelete
  120. The akward moment, when I am sorry for the fans of 100 or Reign and on the other hand smiling because I was a TTP Fan. Sorry

    ReplyDelete
  121. eeehhh....66 episodes is STILL far away from syndication...

    ReplyDelete
  122. Hopefully there will be no Game 7 next Wednesday in the WS .... otherwise it will be bad again for the TV shows... Sad for The 100 it was a really good first episode of the season. Thankfully Chicago PD is steady.

    ReplyDelete
  123. I'd still argue that cancelling TTP was a mistake. The show had no constant storyline, it told its arc through various villain of the week episodes. This show was way easier to sell to syndication. 44 episodes of a motw drama is better than 44 episodes of a show with a constant storyline

    ReplyDelete
  124. I was afraid it would drop lower like it dropped the same week last season, but this is much better :)

    ReplyDelete
  125. Still,CW exsist to syndicate thier shows ,they've never cancelled a show with two or three full seasons before-no show with 44 or 66 episodes have been cancelled

    ReplyDelete
  126. yes but they can't syndicate Reign that easily. Think about it: it's heavily serialized what network is going to take that show up?
    TVD has issues finding buyers as well.


    Just because it hasn't happened, doesen't mean it won't. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best is all I'm saying

    ReplyDelete
  127. OMG! Nooooo ... The 100 was so good ... but the ratings are horrid! I really hope it picks up :(

    ReplyDelete
  128. Gossip Girl,Veronica Mars ,Nikita,One Tree Hill from CW are all syndicated so serialzed shows do sell in syndication

    ReplyDelete
  129. Nikita was renewed for syndication getting 0.2-0.3 so was HoD,

    ReplyDelete
  130. can't speak for OTH as I haven't watched it but VMars was not serialized, it had cases of the week and didn't require much knowledge to get into. Nikita also had villain of the week episodes. A lot like SPN

    ReplyDelete
  131. So?TTP was doing worse than either Reign or The 100 at the end of last season and wouldn't be doing better than them now

    ReplyDelete
  132. vM also had sealized season LNG mysteries and Nikita had serialized plot lines at times too.

    ReplyDelete
  133. VM never had a serialized season, every season had a plotline running throughout episodes (Lillys murder, Logan being accused of murder, the rapist) but always had cases of the week in the forefront.
    Nikita did the exact same, cases of the week with a plotline in the back

    ReplyDelete
  134. Holding The 100 back and then premiering the week of the world series was kind of a bonehead move, really. Hopefully it'll tick upwards as the weeks press on as it really is a great show.

    ReplyDelete
  135. I watch all three shows and while I agree TTP should not have been cancelled, I'd argue that it wasn't Reign or The 100 that should have been either to make a spot for it -- that award goes to Beauty and the Beast.

    ReplyDelete
  136. Arrow's up from last week :) Ouch for The 100:( Such a great show. I hope they go up next week.

    ReplyDelete
  137. I could see Arrow adjust up to 1.0 or 1.1

    ReplyDelete
  138. Ok.Gossip Girl & OTH were serialzed yet were syndicated,Desperate Housewives too.

    ReplyDelete
  139. Why?By the end of the season TTP had no better ratings than BatB.BatB did well internationally & I heard TTP didn't p,us it lost half it's audience in the UK
    BatB is cheaper to produce and was more stable in ratings-though at awful ratings while TTP kept steadily decling all season.
    BatB is CBS and in a joint venture that CW is it isn't wrong for CBS to want a more fairly dived schedule of WB or WB/CBS shows & CBS shows

    ReplyDelete
  140. That's as passive aggressive and childish as I've seen any post be on this site. Ridiculous.

    ReplyDelete
  141. Actually, I find the total viewership means more than just the 18-49 demo, which, ironically is what The CW probably focuses on the most.

    ReplyDelete
  142. Nope CW focuses on 18-34 ratings. So while the networks like to go on and on about the viewership numbers in press releases, the advertisers dont really care about it. Thats why its just PR fluff.

    ReplyDelete
  143. I just said that….The CW focuses more on the 18-49 demo(which, I thought it was the 18 thru 49 demo…didn't know it was 18-34).

    ReplyDelete
  144. As I recall, BATB's ratings were still far worse than TTPs at the end of their season, . Sponsors don't care as much about international ratings

    ReplyDelete
  145. Exactly. About McCarthy, it's good to know, thanks for the tip, I will catch up when start.

    ReplyDelete
  146. wait for the finals! Stalker did the same as last week and is still the best rated 10pm show for CBS

    ReplyDelete
  147. wait for finals Stalker was steady!

    ReplyDelete
  148. Yes they were.Still the BatB/TTP things was Secret Circle/HoD all over again-HoD was cheaper to produce,stable in ratings but low rated.Secret Circle was exspensive to make,started high in ratings but declined all season.HoD won that fight & BatB won its fight.Its the fact & point that BatB was stable in ratings.TTP would've kept loosing Viewrs had it been renewed.

    ReplyDelete
  149. It just sounds like you're grasping at any kind of straw to argue why BATB was doing so much better than TTP. You lost any credibility as an "expert" after stating (with certainty) that it had the same ratings as TTP.

    ReplyDelete
  150. No I'm not lashing out.You are.Im explainng why BatB was renewed over your precious TTP and I never said BatB had better ratings,just the same at the end of the season(BatB did mainly 0.3s all season with two 0.2s,one Or two 0.4 .TTP started at 0.9 and at the end of the season got 0.3-0.4).So I do know the ratings.

    ReplyDelete
  151. No, you said their ratings were the same. They weren't. Period.

    ReplyDelete
  152. Tvmediainsights has them. And I agree with the Wolf factor!

    ReplyDelete
  153. well but batb isn't in the picture anymore because it is a summershow now.

    ReplyDelete
  154. maybe, maybe not. we will never know. But Reign or 100 are doing really bad on two normally good spots. TTP where on monday. This is a different.
