   Young Justice and Thundercats are up in the demo and not Green Lantern! Please CN cancel GL it’s just not good and please keep Thundercats.

   I hope CN will start to treat Young Justice as its star attraction because that’s exactly what it is. Needs more promotion, this show could really be huge with the batman movie coming out next month

   @John-A,
   Not delusional! But after all the hype and the fuss about the contract of egomaniac Weiner and team all they can pull is 2 Mill and something?? The Killing is cheap, received all the backlash possible for a show and still pulling almost 2M…I think the jury is still out there…

   Not sure which direction OWN is going in key ratings. Oprah’s Next Chapter seems completely dependent on guests. Cory Booker = 257,000 viewers; Michael Jackson’s daughter = 911,000.

   For the past two full months (April & May), OWN has mixed results in its target demo:

   W25-54……April……….May………Diff
   ——————————-
   Daytime>>.06>>>>>.05>>>>-17%
   (9a-4p)

   Prime>>>.09>>>>>.09>>>>>N.C.
   (8-11p)

   The season premiere for True Blood was amazing. Glad that they are still steady with their ratings.

    Do we know that the killing is cheap to make or are we speculating?

    It’s a wonderful show. But a little slow like Rubicon was. I stuck with that show and finally began to like it about the point it got cancelled. Don’t remember how it’s ratings compared with Killing.

    But Killing errr. Twin Peaks is great. Like with Twin Peaks, once they solve the murder, it’s unlikely the show will be as good.

    I think a killing renewal is 50/50 at this point. With how little Mac promoted it and the competition it went up against it seems like the ratings were good. BUT AMC not promoting the show at all shows that they don’t really care about the killing so who knows what they’ll do. I hope they give it one more season to improve. Breaking bad and mad men didn’t peak until their later seasons.

    Breaking bad had 1.0 for season finale so MM aint better

    Look Mad Men is doing ok for AMC. They dont expect Walking Dead ratings from it so stop the hate. The Killing will probably be renewed too.

    I’m glad Girls is tanking.

    The Big C is in trouble. This season has been horrible while the first 2 seasons were really good. The whole motivational speaker thing was a bad idea. I think the Big C gets renewed for a final season just like they did United States of Tara.

    True Blood was good as usual. I like Veep. I think it’s funny.

    Mad Men just seems uneven to me.

    Lastly, nothing compares to the new Breaking Bad poster!!!

    @The Killing Rocks: >>>…MM goes at 10PM , Killing at 9PM…I dont think viewers of Mad Men tune in earlier just because! … <<<

    I DID! While multi-tasking at home. The channel was on but I wasn't watching. I just didn't want to miss "MM" at the beginning.

    @DGH: “Mad Men” is programmed for an audience of people that you’ll never meet and likely will never understand. It’s the alphabet over-the-air networks that live day-to-day by ratings.

    On the shows that you watch? Are there spots for Merecedes Benz and other high-ticket items present? The audience may be small, but it’s affluent.

    The Killing is soooo getting the axe after this season airs its not even funny.

    AMC hasn’t promoted it in anyway shape or form. They are definitely done with it imo.

    And that’s good too, because maybe the two wonderful leads might now get better work on a better show instead of this garbage.

    @RHONJd, ganging up on Teresa? Please. She needs to stop running her mouth so much and take some responsibility for her actions. Just because the other housewives confront her about it doesn’t mean they are “ganging up” on her. She needs to stop playing victim all of the time. I am getting sick of her.

    Mad Men’s ratings are good by cable standards. As you can EASILY see from the numbers shown in this article, there are not many huge cable hits like Walking Dead, True Blood, or Game of Thrones. If you put those VERY rare major hits aside, an 0.7, 0.8, or 0.9 in the demo is a big success for cable.
