    Metered Market Thursday Ratings
    CBS Wins, But “The Odd Couple” Loses More Steam

    Thursday 4/02/15
    Metered Market Results

    Household
    Rating/Share
    CBS 5.9/10
    ABC 5.0/ 8
    NBC 3.9/ 7
    Fox 2.6/ 4
    CW 0.7/ 1

    ———-

    -Percent Change from Year-Ago Evening – Thursday 4/03/14:
    NBC: +77, CW: +17, ABC: + 2, CBS: -11, Fox: -35

    ———-

    Note: The following labels are based on the household overnights and are subject to change given the availability of other pending data streams. These overnights are your first look at the ratings and a precursor to what could lie ahead. And we take into account additional benchmarks including the expected Live + Same Day demographic ratings, potential DVR usage, the critical acclaim (or lack of) and the social media presence. Keep in mind that results for any sporting event are always approximate.

    ———-

    -Winners:
    “The Big Bang Theory” (CBS), “Grey’s Anatomy” (ABC), “Scandal” (ABC), “Mom” (CBS)

    -Honorable Mention:
    “The Blacklist” (NBC)

    -Fading:
    “The Odd Couple” (CBS)

    -Losers (excluding repeats):
    “Backstrom” (Fox), “American Crime” (ABC), “The Slap” (NBC)

    ———-

    Ratings Breakdown:
    CBS topped this first Thursday in April with an 18 percent household rating point advantage over second-place ABC. But the 8:30 p.m. half-hour could be in need of fixing next season care of recently introduced “The Odd Couple” (#1: series low 5.8 rating/10 share), which slipped from lead-in “The Big Bang Theory” (#1 for the night: 9.3/17 at 8 p.m.) by 38 percent. While no one expects any show to hold the “Big Bang” lead-in, slippage of this magnitude is too severe. Five-week household overnight track for “The Odd Couple”: 8.1/13 – 7.1/11 – 7.6/12 – 6.6/11 – 5.8/10.

    Particularly positive on CBS last night was full overnight household retention for “Mom” at 9:30 p.m. out of an encore telecast of “The Big Bang Theory” at 9 p.m., each with a second-place 5.3/ 9. Next week “Mom” will be tested in the Thursday 9 p.m. half-hour. Older skewing “Elementary” won its time period, with a 4.9/ 9 in the overnights at 10 p.m. But expect considerable erosion out of “Mom” in adults 18-49 and all the key young adult demographics.

    On ABC, week five of drama “American Crime” continues to bleed, with a series-low 3.6/ 6 at 10 p.m. Comparably, that was a hefty 36 percent below lead-in “Scandal” (#1: 5.6/ 9 from 9-10 p.m.), which was stronger one year earlier at a 6.4/11 at 10 p.m. Five-week overnight track for “American Crime”: 6.6/11 – 4.5/ 8 – 4.3/ 7 – 4.3/ 7 – 3.6/ 6.

    Earlier in the evening on ABC was veteran “Grey’s Anatomy” at a 5.7/10 from 8-9 p.m. (#2), which was 131 percent above short-lived year-ago occupant “Once Upon a Time in Wonderland” (2.3/ 4 on 4/03/14).

    In series-finale news, NBC drama “The Slap” earned its pending cancellation with a very distant third-place 2.2/ 4 at 10 p.m. Comparably, that dropped from lead-in “The Blacklist” (#3: 5.2/ 9 from 9-10 p.m.) by 58 percent. “The Blacklist,” meanwhile, was 21 percent above lead-in “Dateline” (#3: 4.3/ 7 at 8 p.m.) and 126 percent above “Hollywood Game Night” on the year-ago evening (2.3/ 4 on 4/03/14). While no longer the force it was on Monday, “The Blacklist” has certainly lifted NBC on Thursday.

    Elsewhere, Fox’s crime solving combination of veteran “Bones” (#4: 3.1/ 5) and recently introduced “Backstrom” (#4: 2.1/ 3) dropped by an average of 19 percent from one week earlier. And The CW populated the evening with two repeat episodes of “The Flash,” which averaged a 0.7/ 1 in the overnights from 8-10 p.m.

  • 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 (We also where possible now post the 18-34 and 25-54 Demo Numbers).

    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.

    If you are new to ratings or still confused, we recommend you read this excellent

  1. How was scandal last night? I have not watched it yet?

    ReplyDelete
  2. Scandal is suffering :O

    ReplyDelete
  3. GA beats Scandal again (in HH)!

    ReplyDelete
  4. A 5.6 for Scandal????? LOL Wha is happening to this show?

    ReplyDelete
  5. Wonder if The Slap will have a cancelation announcement before the upfronts.

    ReplyDelete
  6. God spring has been horrible to the networks

    ReplyDelete
  7. It was boring to me. Same stories. The B613 plot is the never ending arc... last season for the finale they were trying to take down B613 and it the same thing a year later. No progress in the story. Once again Rown hired another man to sleep with his daughter...

    ReplyDelete
  8. Scandal isn't a megahit anymore.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Yup but still higher than any drama not name Empire

    ReplyDelete
  10. Grey's and Scandal seem to be neck-and-neck again.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Urgh I thought Scandal would slow the bleeding. Elsewhere, we need to see demo numbers but the odd couple is looking more and more like the millers 2.0

    ReplyDelete
  12. How was scandal last night without spoiling anything?

    ReplyDelete
  13. I've given up on this show.It's really boring now.

    ReplyDelete
  14. It depends some loved it or some hated it

    ReplyDelete
  15. Havent watched it yet

    ReplyDelete
  16. Hmm okay well i shall see

    ReplyDelete
  17. Horrible for Scandal.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I didnt know CBS was airing Mom at 9 next week. I hope it does well in there. They will probably need it to anchor an hour next fall with the odd couple being a guinea pig

    ReplyDelete
  19. That is unfortunate

    ReplyDelete
  20. Scandal is terrible right now. Last night episode was trash. Not surprised the ratings keep sliding. Jake, B613, Olivia new sex partner, Huck, QUinn, Mellie campaign, nobody cares.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I only found out a few hours ago when I looked up the listings on TFC.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Oh dear Spring is killing broadcast networks. I am not sure anymore if The Odd Couple is getting renewed.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I wonder how Grey's will do next week in its old time slot. Also, looking forward to see the ratings of the repeat of the pilot.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Farewell Parks and RecApril 3, 2015 at 2:48 PM

    Looks like another terrible night.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Poor CBS just can't seem to find a shown they own to become a hit.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Farewell Parks and RecApril 3, 2015 at 2:49 PM

    It is, but it's Millers 2.0.

    ReplyDelete
  27. It seems that's gonna be happening every day

    ReplyDelete
  28. Farewell Parks and RecApril 3, 2015 at 2:49 PM

    Terrible.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I have a feeling Backstrom went up last night.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Has spring ratings been worst this year vs last year

    ReplyDelete
  31. I have 2 questions
    What is the in HH difference for The Blacklist,Scandal and Greys?
    Is American Crime going to be in 10pm next week following the Greys? It will be probably the last chance for this show as Greys is going to be big,also excited for the pilot rerun ratings.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Scandal's sudden fall is quite spectacular. ABC has to be concerned.


    As for Shonda's shows in the future, this decline locks that none of her shows are moving from Thursdays.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Bones and Backstrom duo dropped by an average of 19 percent from one week earlier,it probably dropped

    ReplyDelete
  34. Wow Scandal. Down almost a full HH point from last week. Can't say I'm surprised. Looks like others felt the same after ill conceived kidnapping S/L and then what followed. That happens a lot with ABC serials- start solid with good storytelling then they become hits as everything is shock and awe and they forget about all the things that made audiences connect with the show.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Did you even read Marc Berman? It was done by 19%

    ReplyDelete
  36. Are you kidding me? It fell that much?

    ReplyDelete
  37. CBS is really messing up their schedule for these last few weeks. Apparently they are airing two CSI: Cyber episodes in one week (on Tuesday April 21 and its normal timeslot Wednesday the 22nd). Add to that the illogical early season finale of Scorpion, which airs completely outside of May Sweeps, in favor of airing the last three episodes of low-rated Stalker (and I really love both shows) and I have no idea anymore what they are doing.

    ReplyDelete
  38. It was a 6.4 last week in household.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I am operating under the belief that someone on CBS scheduling department has lost it. seriously, it is ridiculous what they are doing.

    ReplyDelete
  40. The thing was ratings for the kidnapping was good it wasn't Til after when the show did cases of the week did ratings decline

    ReplyDelete
  41. yea, and that translated to a 2.3. I can only imagine what the 5.6 is going to bring.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Its going to be tough maybe 2.0 as heavily skews young at it lost a big in HH.

    ReplyDelete
  43. 2.1-2.2 (it could be steady with last week 2.3)

    ReplyDelete
  44. A look inside the mind of the head of scheduling at CBS

    ReplyDelete
  45. Wow that's bad. What happened??

    ReplyDelete
  46. Oh god, I cannot believe how mich i agree with you. I have no desire to watch both anymore. However, I will still stay with them.
    The goof wife used to be such an amazing show with brilliant court cases, now it is not even a legal drama anymore. It is all about alicia's campaign. i can always only watch 3 episodes in a row so it is not too boring.
    Scandal also used to be an amazing show in season ans even parts of season 3. I have no idea what the writers are thinking now?! There is no storyline and terrible character development.
    Then i find it unfair that scandal Hits 2+ when shows like OUAT and Revenge (IMO) deserve those ratings. Their storylines are really good IMO and they are about to get better

    ReplyDelete
  47. Last week 6.4 this week 5.6 yikes

    ReplyDelete
  48. Farewell Parks and RecApril 3, 2015 at 2:56 PM

    2.2

    ReplyDelete
  49. ABC lineup completely collapsed,dunno what happened.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Hopefully, we will get Top 25. The last time we has Top 25 for Scandal it was a 2.8 and that = 2.4 in demo.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Even The Good Wife? :O

    ReplyDelete
  52. I totally agree with "Farewell Parks and Rec"

    ReplyDelete
  53. Yikes @ Scandal! It looks like it's getting season 1 ratings again.

    ReplyDelete
  54. People better not blame DST for Scandal's fall either... OR Spring Break! lol

    ReplyDelete
  55. Yeah, but wasn't last week 6.4/11 (emphasis on the 11), and this is 5.6/10 (emphasis on the 10)? I don't think 5.6/10 is the same as 5.6/11, so I don't think it fell a full point in HH.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Yep, it's been really weird this season. Mom's try-out makes sense for the reason you mentioned, but the other things they've been doing are completely illogical.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Anyone else here watch Backstrom? Am I the only one who wants to see this show go on to season 2?

    ReplyDelete
  58. I still cannot believe what they are doing on Mondays. Seems unimaginable to me.

    ReplyDelete
  59. no it was 6.4/10 greys was 6.5/11

    ReplyDelete
  60. Ah, okay, then I remembered wrongly. I quit Scandal in the middle of Season 2, so I don't really pay attention to its ratings.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I didn't even watch it last night. Glad I decided not to watch it.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Spring is really killing a lot of shows this year.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Bones, but I knew it would happen with TBBT back. :( I just really hope it gets a 1.2.

    ReplyDelete
  64. You are the only one.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Spring killed everyone here except for the Mom.

    ReplyDelete
  66. I have idea what the writers are thinking

    ReplyDelete
  67. Patrick AusgewahltApril 3, 2015 at 3:02 PM

    It was Maundy Thursday (which Scandal premiered on BTW)
    Also, at Sundown it was Passover.
    #Religiousfanexcusebingo

    ReplyDelete
  68. That's so true
    Every show has gone down

    ReplyDelete
  69. I hope you're right, because I love Mom :)

    ReplyDelete
  70. Mom amazes me, its becoming a reliable player for CBS

    ReplyDelete
  71. Well you're missing out, it's really improved since the Pilot. It's shame not a lot of people are watching it.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Yep 6.5 last week this week 5,7 in HH

    ReplyDelete
  73. Grey's is probably going under 2.0, but don't worry, it's certain to be renewed ;)

    ReplyDelete
  74. To some degree
    It did 2.4 with 8 million in the fall
    It's done low 2 and 7 million this spring

    ReplyDelete
  75. I don't see it as a shame, I don't want House as a cop thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Well, Grey's had a 5.8 a couple of weeks ago, and it did a 2.2 or 2.3, I think.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Jewish people are 1.4% of the country...

    ReplyDelete
  78. But the week before that Greys was at like a 5.6/5.7. It's actually been pretty steady. Scandal stated its decline BEFORE DST

    ReplyDelete
  79. Have you actually watched the show? Lol

    ReplyDelete
  80. I know, but I don't think it will go under 2.0 for now :)

    ReplyDelete
  81. I have yet to watch last night's episode but I thought the whole Brennan on twitter thing had potential for one of their most hilarious episodes yet. Was it good? I will watch it later today

    ReplyDelete
  82. Has there been any show not to decline during this spring?

    ReplyDelete
  83. No and I don't intend to, every review of the first four episodes compared it to that. You're clearly a shlil.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Even in this case, it's a really strong performer for ABC.

    ReplyDelete
  85. And CSI Cyber will still be an episode short (out of 13)-what's the betting we end up with an episode at 10:00 on Tuesday 12th May (since Person of Interest ends the week before).

    ReplyDelete
  86. True besides Empire every show has taken hits

    ReplyDelete
  87. PoI's episode 21 rating is going to be completely F'ed because of CBS swapping out a PoI repeat for a new CSI: Cyber the week before. That is going to suck especially since next week will probably go down to another series low.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Empire is a way better show.

    ReplyDelete
  89. Castle and Revenge are doing like a tenth better than what they got in January.

    ReplyDelete
  90. right. But has any show declined as much as Scandal?

    ReplyDelete
  91. Do networks take Spring ratings into account when deciding a shows fate? Since they rise up in the Fall. Any examples of a series that couldnt recover from Spring and were cancelled?

    ReplyDelete
  92. Yep. Which is seriously frustrating.

    ReplyDelete
  93. Well revenge is doing better than in january

    ReplyDelete
  94. Comedies on wed have taken hits

    ReplyDelete
  95. I think both shows deserve higher numbers than scandal at leasr

    ReplyDelete
  96. Well that's the thing. Episode 5 is when it started getting really good. lol. Every great show takes time to gel and find its groove, no?

    ReplyDelete
  97. I never watched Caste, but I agree, Revenge definitely deserves better ratings

    ReplyDelete
  98. Pretty soon we're going to be cheering that a show gets a 1.5 on all networks.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Mom, Blackish, Revenge, Empire, Dancing with the Stars, Chicago PD, Person of Interest, NCIS Los Angeles, Scorpion (comparing with fall and not winter ratings), Criminal Minds, Chicago Fire, Last Man Standing, Cristela, The Big Bang Theory, Blue Bloods, Bones (from last week's number only), Reign, The Originals, Hart of Dixie

    ReplyDelete
  100. I am being serious, why would you use lol in that message? Everyone a mile away saw this show was dead on arrival when FOX picked it up in January 2014.

    ReplyDelete
  101. Scandal will get renewed for sure for 5th season but it needs to go next season unless it gets better.

    ReplyDelete
  102. No, they typically don't recover...they might recover 10% or so in the next fall but not much more than that.

    ReplyDelete
  103. It has a two hour finale. Are you already accounting for that?

    ReplyDelete
  104. They should have ordered more Scorpion episodes and aired them in May Sweeps so CBS' average sweeps ratings can go up. Stalker will only drag them down. It would have been fine airing late May or even June. Also, it's really not a 9 pm show and I don't hope its ratings will drag down NCIS: LA's ratings. If they really wanted Stalker back on Mondays, they should have swapped it with LA (which was a 9 pm show for the past five seasons). And again, while I really love Stalker, this move makes no sense to me. It almost seems as if CBS wants to give Stalker another chance of proving itself, but I can't imagine the show will suddenly be renewed.

    And speaking of renewals, what's taking CBS so long to renew their dramas?

    ReplyDelete
  105. I really liked Backstrom & I will be upset if it cancelled
    so you not alone :))

    ReplyDelete
  106. Whether it gets better or not, Season 5 need s to be its final one. They don't have any new stories to tell.

    ReplyDelete
  107. Farewell Parks and RecApril 3, 2015 at 3:12 PM

    NBC already does it for Blacklist and the Chicagos.

    ReplyDelete
  108. Even with the two hour finale they need to air an episode on that Tuesday 12th to fit the entire season in.

    ReplyDelete
  109. Farewell Parks and RecApril 3, 2015 at 3:12 PM

    Scandal and FOTB might be the coldest shows on tv.

    ReplyDelete
  110. a 1.6 is enough to get into the top 25 shows last week

    ReplyDelete
  111. I love Stalker too but I agree with everything you've said. What is even worse is that Scorpio (R) already rates better than Stalker originals and that is with Stalker airing in a much better timeslot for it (Wednesdays at 10) without having been off the air for 2 months. This is insane.



    Also, the whole "CBS is giving it a chance to prove itself" is crazy since they will have information about one more episode before the upfronts, so there is almost no way it could influence their decision. It is a burn off, but in a prime slot, and dragging LA down with it in the process.

    ReplyDelete
  112. Yes, it will still be an episode short:
    -1x05: April 8
    -1x06: April 15
    -1x07: April 21
    -1x08: April 22
    -1x09: April 29
    -1x10: May 6
    -1x11: May 13
    -1x12: May 13
    -1x13: ???

    ReplyDelete
  113. Even a 1.3 is acceptable these days

    ReplyDelete
  114. Because airing The Dovekeepers to preempt it was such a good idea. Oh CBS!

    ReplyDelete
  115. Yeah, they ordered 24 episodes of Elementary and only ordered 22 for Scorpion?! Why didn't they order 25 episodes of Scorpion like Hawaii Five-0 this season? It's their biggest drama aside from NCIS and Criminal Minds.

    ReplyDelete
  116. ABC should pull a "Sleepy Hollow" on Scandal and replace the show runner and the writer's team. The cast is so talented, and has so much potential, yet the writers fu"ked the show into the ground. It's really sad...

    ReplyDelete
  117. What is airing after the New Orleans season finale? That slot is open as far as I know.

    ReplyDelete
  118. Makes you wonder how long until broadcast dies or really changes its ways.

    ReplyDelete
  119. I thought it was good but this is my first "real" season of scandal! Some of the material is new to me but may be acient and tiring to others!

    ReplyDelete
  120. Yep, that was crazy. And it paid off really well for them...

    ReplyDelete
  121. BTW i agree with you about the good wife and scandal. I replied as well

    ReplyDelete
  122. Because sometimes I feel the need to interject lol in internet conversations to show the lighthearted intent of my comment. Well consider me more of an optimist than a realist when it comes to the fate of my favorite TV shows. I see I'm probably in the minority, but I see great potential in this show. And thanks, I will!

    ReplyDelete
  123. What do you think is happening?

    ReplyDelete
  124. I think when shonda writes the episodes they are actually good but she has not written any herself since "Run"

    ReplyDelete
  125. Well, if I'm not mistaken, it didn't go well for sleepy hollow (talking about raitings)

    ReplyDelete
  126. Awesome! :D I knew I wasn't! Last night's episode was crazy awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  127. I'm glad someone here agrees with me. I showed clips to my mom of Empire and she found it way better than Scandal. She told Scandal is so stupid now based on the promos she saw.

    ReplyDelete
  128. Once Upon a Time too though that had reasons for the initial boot and one can argue it hasn't declined that much from its "true" numbers. I would also add in NCIS New Orleans, Madam Secretary (though it has recovered somewhat), The Blacklist (though the decline is far superior in raw than in TRUE) and Supernatural.

    ReplyDelete
  129. Oh yeah, I'm trying to act like these hideous numbers in January never existed

    ReplyDelete
  130. Does anyone know the last time Scandal hit a 5.6 in household?

    ReplyDelete
  131. The scandal writers need to learn sth from the HTGAWM writers

    ReplyDelete
  132. They were beyond terrible. I never ever want to see those again. Sadly, they had some of their best episodes then though. Remember
    " Madness" and "Abduction"

    ReplyDelete
  133. It's no funny matter, if you can't have a decent show off the bat in mid season any more you're done for. Especially considering its competition and the fact it had 2 years to figure the show out and still failed. I feel sorry for the staff.

    ReplyDelete
  134. what's going on with Scandal? I thought last nights episode was good! Certainly better than the past couple of weeks.

    ReplyDelete
  135. Really revenge?
    They are running in circles and have no stories to tell

    ReplyDelete
  136. God im looking at the Brennans twitter,it made me laugh more than watching some sitcoms.

    ReplyDelete
  137. Shonda has too many shows, and Smoke and Mirrors is coming... I'm worried her entire line up will start to suffer.

    ReplyDelete
  138. HTGAWM EP is one of the writers of Scandal.The actor who plays Sam is one of directors of Scandal.

    ReplyDelete
  139. But grey's is still a very very good show and i do not even watch it every week. Only sometimes. Yet i can tell what a good show it is

    ReplyDelete
  140. They are the same they share

    ReplyDelete

    I found OUAT colder in november. Its current ratings are in a bit down with its final fall episodes, but in line from what I expected.


    Agree with New Orleans, this show is lead-in dependent and I wonder if it's any stronger than LA (which was lead-in dependent itself), Madam Secretary and Good Wife (four straight 1.0 ratings) are cold as well and I didn't mention Blacklist because of its obvious timeslot downgrade.

  143. Was it ever a megahit? Not trying to be smart at all because I really have no idea lol

    ReplyDelete
  144. Not all of them though

    ReplyDelete
  145. POI ends the week before so it would usually be a repeat, but I expect that it'll be CSI Cyber 1x11.

    ReplyDelete
  146. Me too! I wish Abc never aired Revenge in January, maybe it would've been position then it is now. In the meantime, those episodes were some of the best that Revenge has done all season. Its a shame that they both rated so low. Nevertheless, it sounds like the best is about to come as the end of the season approaches.

    Former ensemble show that seems now to have only one character.

  148. Why Hawaii FIve-0 got 25 episodes this season while it's one of the lowest-rated shows on CBS makes no sense to me either.

    ReplyDelete
  149. right. Each show has its own writing team. They may have once written for Scandal but they don't do both. Shonda doesn't even write for or run HTGAWM. It's just her production company. They may use the same directors

    ReplyDelete
  150. Did they change the title? Or is that another new show?

    ReplyDelete
  151. I loved her sister! She's the epitome of the republican tea party base!

    ReplyDelete
  152. Probably also a new CSI: Cyber then. And I just checked, but the CSI: Cyber airing on April 21 is airing out of repeats of NCIS and New Orleans. Maybe another try-out? Or just a burnoff.

    ReplyDelete
  153. American Crime was amazing last night! Best episode of the series!

    ReplyDelete
  154. Wrap-up season? Double finale too...

    ReplyDelete
  155. I liked the pilot so much,will watch 2nd episode this week.

    Either CBS is maximizing profit before they can it or they are just stupid.


    Elementary will probably have 96 episodes by next season, CBS should throw it on sundays at 10, air it against the Oscars/NFC Championship/Golden Globes in case of any football preemptions and call it quits #byefelicia

    ReplyDelete
  157. If they do end up airing 3 episodes in 1 week in May (taking into account the 2-hour finale.) then i would say Burnoff (since it's fate will have been decided by the previous Friday 8th May.)

    ReplyDelete
  158. Nothing made sense until yesterday!

    ReplyDelete
  159. Are the episodes before this one also good?

    ReplyDelete
  160. The show is really good, but not surprised with the ratings.

    ReplyDelete
  161. Possibly. In that case I hope for the fans that it doesn't end in a cliffhanger.

    ReplyDelete
  162. The network averages for scripted drama/comedies for each network this season are

    ABC 1.63
    CBS 1.81
    CW 0.67
    FOX 1.47
    NBC 1.16

    ReplyDelete
  163. Good is debatable but boring is quite unanimous. I say judge for yourself. I certainly found them boring.

    ReplyDelete
  164. Yikes, the bar is becoming really low.

    Yet they skew old as everyone knows.

    ReplyDelete
  171. Mom:
    Spring average: 2.20
    Fall/ Winter average for episode leading out of TBBT(R): 2.14

    It is up.

    The Originals
    Spring Average: 0.55
    Fall/ Winter Average: 0.63



    Less than 0.1 decline is enough for me to classify it as unaffected.


    DWTS
    Spring Average: 2.07
    Fall Average of the first three episodes that aired within the regular season on Monday: 2.03


    It is up.



    Cristela
    Spring Average of episodes leading out of LMS: 0.98

    Fall Average: 1.04, including a highly inflated series premiere which should probably be removed for comparison purposes


    Less than 0.1 decline, which again is enough for me to classify it as unaffected.

  172. T25 Numbers have just come in, I'll be updating the spreadsheet. Refresh for updates.

    ReplyDelete
  173. Wow, I've expected something like 0.75 for CW...

    ReplyDelete
  174. I agree with what you've said about all those shows. I think New Orleans is much weaker than LA though. LA has beat it once already in an infinitely worse timeslot and last week they had 1.5-1.8 which is more than enough to make up for the difference in the timeslots.

    ReplyDelete
  175. For a new show to take 5 weeks to become watchable,, that's a travesty in itself. Not hating just it shouldn't take that long.

    ReplyDelete
  176. I don't think it is a stupid thing to do per se. I don't know how the financials for each episode work but assuming they are making a profit on each episode (accounting for syndication and all), presumably adding an extra episode also increases the profit. So I don't see what is wrong with it.

    ReplyDelete
  177. Can you tell me what they were? Mine always takes ages to refresh.

    ReplyDelete
  178. Broadcast TV has fallen pretty far. I guess now people would prefer to watch their shows online or download them
