Definitions:
Fast Affiliate Ratings: These first national ratings, including demographics, are available at approximately 11 AM (ET) the day after telecast, and are released to subscribing customers daily. These data, from the National People Meter sample, are strictly time-period information, based on the normal broadcast network feed, and include all programming on the affiliated stations, sometimes including network programming, sometimes not. The figures may include stations that did not air the entire network feed, as well as local news breaks or cutaways for local coverage or other programming. Fast Affiliate ratings are not as useful for live programs and are likely to differ significantly from the final results, because the data reflect normal broadcast feed patterns. For example, with a World Series game, Fast Affiliate Ratings would include whatever aired from 8-11PM on affiliates in the Pacific Time Zone, following the live football game, but not game coverage that begins at 5PM PT. The same would be true of Presidential debates as well as live award shows and breaking news reports.
Rating: Estimated percentage of the universe of TV households (or other specified group) tuned to a program in the average minute. Ratings are expressed as a percent.
Share (of Audience): The percent of households (or persons) using television who are tuned to a specific program, station or network in a specific area at a specific time. (See also, Rating, which represents tuning or viewing as a percent of the entire population being measured.)
Time Shifted Viewing – Program ratings for national sources are produced in three streams of data – Live, Live+Same Day (Live+SD) and Live+7 Day. Time shifted figures account for incremental viewing that takes place with DVRs. Live+Same Day (Live+SD) include viewing during the same broadcast day as the original telecast, with a cut-off of 3:00AM local time when meters transmit daily viewing to Nielsen for processing. Live+7 Day ratings include incremental viewing that takes place during the 7 days following a telecast.

I don’t understand why they give up on summer
Their “alternative programming” department is very subpar. Outside of the bizarrely successful Undercover Boss, they haven’t had any success launching a new reality show in over a decade.
They’ll do better once Big Brother is on three times a week, but for the most part, repeats do as well as whatever original crap they put out, so why bother?
Actually the hype on AGT is way more than the actual talent.
Undercover Boss success isn’t that bizarre. CBS launched it off the Super Bowl and it was based on a successful British format (which was inspired by another successful British format called Back to the Floor, which was an adaptation of a successful Canadian format).
Hell’s Kitchen is a fantastic reality show, it really is, but god, it’s nowhere near the 3.0+ ratings it used to be at. Kind of sad seeing it pull under a 2.5 nowadays.
this happen to CBS because they dont have idea what to do…to manz people are upset
Worried for Glass House. It will surely adjust down, but it is so amazing! It has improved exponentially since the first episode. I hope ABC tweaks some things and renews it
ABC/CBS fight continues!

@Nick
Except , Hells Kitchen & Hell Inn, are both require that the persons being helped are inept , which is why 9 out of 10 of those restaurants helped are now out of business.
++
Master Chef does not show them as being inept as much as out of their element at times , though the cast should be a little more careful about what they say on camera.

ABC has advantage because they are doing a decent amount of fresh programming over the summer, for CBS to compete it would need to be very aggressive.
CBS programming only goes from the End of September through Mid May, if they want to compete during the summer they need to add no less then 24 hrs of new reality / series content each week, and I would even do 2 new magazine format shows for the summer audience.
AGT- I am a Stern fan but he’s trying too hard to fix everyone’s act. He’s sounding like a know it all and is not coming off well.
In terms of the Glass House while i can respect and understand Jefferys stance i don’t want this to turn into a if your not with us your aginst us agenda if it does i will not be watching any more.
I seriously think CBS or ABC shoud pic up the 3rd season of Canadian drama, The Lisener, for the remainder of the summer. The show is pulling in the best numbers, its ever had in Canada, to date. If the numbers were to be equivalent with the population in the U.S., the show would be averaging over 10 or 11 milion a week, south of the border, throughout the summer. The show is very well written too.
that would be…. pick up the 3rd season of the Canadian drama, The Listener. It would help If I proof read my posting.
