The list below is long but you can use your browsers "find on page" feature (usually CTRL+F or CMD+F) to search - that's probably the easiest way to find Cake Boss.

@JRG: another ~3.7 A18-49 rating and 13.1 million viewers:
http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2012/05/30/historys-hatfields-mccoys-continues-blockbuster-ratings-with-13-1-million-total-viewers-on-night-two/
Mike W: tried that. it bred even more of those comments though mostly they were just trying to be funny.
Celtics/Heat dominating ratings but Bulls/Heat had 11 million viewers last year. The Bulls clearly need to get back to the ECFs.
WWE needs a reboot by the time their 3-hour shows start in late July.
@ Torrid
If you were so smart dude then you would know that the NHL had its best scoring playoff numbers since 1997 this year. Yeah but you failed to mention that so you need to stop posting on here seriously.
‘The number of people posting “shouldn’t it be in the top 100?” every day is amazing.
Maybe put the red font in size 72 font?”
Or add “not 18-49, not total viewers” to it.
I think people misread the red text because it says 25-54 but the list gives 18-49, so the red text needs to make this clearer.
“…the NHL had its best scoring playoff numbers since 1997 this year…”
When you say it like that that sounds so impressive! … so lemme help you with that LA….you know …with some perpective.
– now how’s that?
, I know it sucks to be you right now.
—————————————————————————————
No NHL playoff game this year has passed 2 million viewers nationally despite the most widely broadcast Stanley Cup Playoffs in recent history.
—————————————————————————————
By the way – how’s dem Kings in LA doing; maybe you really should do a little riot to get noticed in LaLa Lakers Land even with the Lakers not playiong (check out the LA sports media storiesn Kings do not dominate the conversation even when they have the place to themselves) – being a King’s fan in LA must be frustrating – like fartting against a hurricane wind, it’s futile and leaves you with your stink all over you. I feel for you man
@Morgan Wick
I think people misread the red text because it says 25-54 but the list gives 18-49, so the red text needs to make this clearer.
Nonsense. The red, bold, italicized message is very concise. If someone doesn’t bother to read it or can’t understand it, there’s no amount of clarification that can possibly change that. Some people are just dumb.
Im so happy rags didn’t do as well as everyone thought, disney channel rocks. Radio rebel is still the highest views movie his year do far than nick, I bet let it shine will get more views
@Ultima, nah, it’s not nonsense. But at this point given the limitations of the data we receive I’m resigned that no matter how we explain it if the show people want isn’t in the initial list of 100 there will be complaining, grumbling, speculation of doom etc.
Unless we get another data source I’d count on it pretty much happening at least once a week with one ABC Family show or the other for the entire summer.
Someone tell me what the picture is from what show? Thanks.
@AlcoholicsAnonymous It’s from Hatfield & McCoys being shown on the History Channel.
“We only receive the top 100 cable shows for adults 25-54 for the whole day from our primary source. If you don’t see an original episode of a show here, it’s because it wasn’t in that list. Note that the list shows the adults 18-49 numbers, not 25-54.”
@Melvin
Having seen both films, Let It Shine is by far the better movie. And unlike nick, Disney knows how to promote to its audience. LIS will crush Rags ratings.
RAGS on Nick got 3.466 Million Viewers & a 0.5 18-49!!! thats pretty good. i cant wait to see it beat Let it Shine on the low rated disney channel.
nhl blows…. they avg about 1.3 million for the conf finals! lol.. the nba is destroying it like usual..
@Sean, no way Rags will beat Let it shine. Let it shine is on a Friday; all the kids are off school; plus a low rated Disney movie still gets 4 million; more than rags; plus from the previews it looks like a decent movie.
DOESNT MATTER, Talk to me when Disney wins a week in total viewers again…. & @Melvin Big Time Movie got 4.2.Million & Radio Rebel barely got 4.3! so, AGAIN…TALK TO ME WHEN DISNEY WINS A WEEK IN TOTAL VIEWERS!
Nearly 14 million for Hatfields & McCoys that is really impressive for cable tv. We need more series such as this.
@sean you are so annoying…
