    I know this is a fan bingo card, but I think taking Mercy off the air for the week didn’t do it any favors.

  2. Question: Is this more accurate than the other post’s tallies?

    For example, the first chart said “Modern Family” had an 8.59mil. in overall viewers, and a 3.4/9 rating/share. That differs slightly from these. Is this new revision more accurate?

    Just wondering, so I can properly edit Wikipedia =P.

  3. James, these are the final numbers, while the ones posted this morning were just preliminary. These are more accurate. :)

  4. Ah, wonderful. Thanks, Julia =). Wikipedia always links here (it’s actually how I discovered the site, I think, upon seeing “Community” was justly picked-up for a full season), so I just wanted to figure out which post is the more reliable post. Woot!

    Is Travis an insider or does he have a source he doesn’t post? =P.

  5. So everything on ABC except Modern Family had a series low last night.

  6. James, Travis works somewhere where he gets the numbers directly from Nielsen. But he’s anonymous (his name is not actually Travis Yanan) so that’s all we know. :)

  7. Haha. Awesome. Thanks again!

    I’ll echo my thoughts from another topic: I think it’s clear that “Cougar Town” is wearing on viewers, and they’re caring less and less. I think a lot of the reasons they’ve stuck around previously was simply because it has such a lovable lead-in with “Modern Family”. But that can only last for so long for some people. Meanwhile, people make an effort to start watching ABC at 8:30 for “The Middle”, because they can’t stand “Hank”. I hope ABC realizes what a great match the two well-rated series are and eventually pair them up and toss out the garbage =).

    It saddens me to say it but Eastwick is going to cancel. Soo sad :(

    The Middle dropped to a 1.8, thats not good but Hank dropped to a 1.3.

  9. Mackey

    Cougar Town will be over a 3 again next episode without Baseball.

    The middle is a good show but it’s not compatible with any of the Wednesday shows, it’s more of a scrubs and better off Ted type of show. It’s like pairing malcom in the middle with the office, both great shows but not compatible. Too bad for eastwick, my girlfriend loves it

  11. Kyle

    I wish ABC would give The Middle a real Lead-In!! when a show that starts on a :30 and gets way better ratings then the lead-in thats saying THE SHOW IS DEAD

  12. rob

    Its time for ABC to cancel Hank. I seriously think repeats of Modern Family can do better.

  13. andrew

    Eastwick’s days look numbered, unfortunately.

  14. Kyle, 8:30 shows almost always go up from 8pm.

  15. CK

    World Series did suck a few live viewers away from the other nets. Look for an uptick next week for all the ABC comedies–except for Hank. I guess you can give ABC some kudos for keeping the schedule realtively stable, but Hank is just not catching on. Having watched a few episodes, it’s easy to see why.

  16. Jamie

    Modern Family sucks compared to Cougar Town……….. and the Middle to be honest…

  17. rob

    ABC comedies and Eastwick wont even be on next Wednesday. Stupid CMA awards!

  18. CK

    Oh, yeah….CMA Awards next Wednesday. Guess I’ll catch up on DVR’d shows then.

  19. forg

    A 3.5 for Modern Family against world series finals is impressive!
    Too bad for the The Middle but again it had a big uptick from Hank’s demo. Woah, Cougar Town below 3.0 is a bit alarming I guess but still good performance against baseball.

    Christine and Gary are steady. CSI NY at 2.8 is low for the show, if ABC decides to air Lost at Wed 10pm, it will beat CSI NY by a landslide.

  20. Liban A

    America’s Next Top Model BEAT Hank and The Middle!

    Kudos to CW.
