yes disney channel is still on top
yay disney dispite the olympics
Nick did really good against the olympics. Hoping the Robot and Monster premiere gets 3.5 million+.
Wow with all those Spongebob specials on Friday’s report I thought for sure Disney’s reign at summer dominance would be in jeopardy…
I’m so happy to see that I was wrong and that now not even Spongebob is powerful enough to dethrone Disney from its number one spot!
Disney is unstoppable!
Of Cousre the Spongebob marathon wouldn’t dethrone Disney’s reign, because EVERDAY ON NICK IS A LIKE SPONGEBOB MARATHON! Maybe nickelodeon should change their name to the Spongebob Channel.
Disney is doing great. Hopefully the premiere of Toy Story 3 cracks above 4.5 million viewers. Nick is doing good too. Fred did good against the olympics. But everyone knows the show is gonna bomb this week.
@RHONJd
Hey, Fred 3 still beat Good Luck Charlie and Shake It Up despite it being against the Olympics.
@Rhon Marathon? They only showed that 11 hour marathon because it was an anniversary thing. & Spongebob is Nickelodeon’s most successful show. I’m pretty sure if disney had it, they’d air it 24/7.
Go Disney! When was the last time Nick won total day viewership?
Toy Story 3 Predictions-
4.5 million-5.7 million
Am I the only mature fan here? LOL.
Good for USA.
disney has been dropping the past couple weeks and nick has been gaining the past couple weeks . nick will when in september when they start doing stuff
@CDBO… No they havent. Nick has been gaining because Viacom is back on Directv. They’re back at usual ratings. Disney has not been dropping at all.
@Nathan… Disney would not air Spongebob 24/7. They’d pair it equally with Phineas and Ferb.
Nick needs a new promotional & scheduling team.
Bravo last. Yikes.
Not last, 25th out of 99 in primetime average viewers, 18th out of 99 in primetime 18-49. Nielsen limits us to only posting the top 25.
Disney hasn’t been dropping, they’re not even down a whole 100k from last week
wow the ID network made the daily list @ 585 GREAT!!!
