   Eureka, we love you. Even though people don’t watch you anymore and you’re heading into Sanctuary territory with those numbers.

   @peter

   That’s because 2 teams were playing with huge amounts of fans worldwide.

   Will syfy renew sanctuary for a final season or at least make an announcement either way, that is what annoyed when Legend Of The Seeker was cancelled, yes, i know it wasn’t on syfy.

   Also, starting to thinking SYFY and ABC Family should just keep their scripted shows to summer.

   Not that it matters anymore, but I hope MIOBI ends on a high for the series finale.

   At this point I have no idea.

   Thing is, Joel Goldsmith who did music for Sanctuary, as well as SG1/Atlantis/SGU died recently.

   Is it just me or are the videos on Ridiculousness this season not nearly as funnier as they were last season? I think the show might of lost its touch. It feels completely different from the first season.

    Any numbers for AMC’s “The Pitch?” It’s not on the list, and it bowed very low a few Sundays ago, so we’ll see if they burn off the rest of the episodes on their lower rated sister network IFC…

    BTW, Ridiculousness is an infomercial for Microsoft Bing. Their logo alone annoys me!

    Oh Eureka! Last night’s episode was so good too. Oh well, people are missing out on one of the best final seasons of any tv show.

    INSIDE THE NBA PLAYOFFS a sports discussion and analysis show also carries more national interest for the NBA than Hockey’s so-called “most exciting playoffs in sport” – they lied to you fellows, take the red-pill and wake up now ya little bozos

    @Torrid

    You are having so much fun saying “I told you.” I don’t blame you. It is ridiculous for anyone to claim that the NHL is close in popularity to the NBA.

    Hockey also had two games that ran opposite each other for a period of time on different networks. BTW – Who ever said NHL was more popular than the NBA nationally? In certain markets, it certainly does quite well. Keep in mind that the NHL also is in far fewer US markets than the NBA (27 v. 20 – these exclude NY (3 NHL/2NBA) and LA (both 2).

    MIOBI RATINGS PLEASE

    Torrid’s incessant and uneducated arguments are mildly amusing and extremely annoying at the same time.

    First off, nobody said the NHL WAS more popular than the NBA, but that it was getting there, and if you were paying attention 5 years ago when they only had 1.6M viewers for the FINALS, you’d know how far they’ve come.

    You clearly don’t enjoy using facts, because yours are pathetic, and you ignore them anytime somebody else uses them.

    For instance, you ignore the fact that the NHL has FAR better attendance capacity percentages than the NBA.

    Another example? You liked bringing up the “Bigotry” BS about fans using slurs against Joel Ward last week, but when the tables were turned and Kobe using homosexual slurs was brought up, you ran away from the keyboard like a child.

    You also ignore the fact that the NHL has grown by over a BILLION dollars annually in five years. Currently, they’re on pace to be at roughly $3.2B, which is only $1B behind the NBA, despite the fact that the NBA makes $930M annually compared to the NHL’s $200M from TV contracts? Which to a LOGICAL person (You aren’t one) says that the NHL is nearly on par in every area except TV contract revenue. Take it out and the NBA makes $3.3B compared to the NHL’s $3.0B.

    Oh, and the fact that you have to brag about the NBA doing better ratings when the NHL is on a channel available to only 80% of the households in America is funny, even if it is a poor argument.

    Now, please send your reply that will undoubtedly contain no facts, refute no claims, and most likely be a bunch of senseless schoolyard smack-talking.

    DenverDean, facts don’t apply when you’re talking to him. Don’t bother.

    So TNT is basically surviving on basketball during the spring.
