What were combat pawn numbers?
Wow 16 wishes did well and so did sponge bob and phineas
Political Animals has no shot at being anything more than a limited series event.
*Any VH1 numbers (Mob Wives Chicago, Big Ang?
I’m confident Shake It Up had 2.8-3.5 million, since it’s lead out had 3.2 million
Hi what were combat pawn numbers thank you. It aired at 10 30 pm trutv
Go Phineas and Ferb! Decent rerun numbers! I have to admit, that Spongbob does perform very well in reruns, though.
wow Falling Skies back up to a 1.3….
It’s a bit of a beast for TNT
I an not trying to be rude, but without Spongebob, Nick and Disney would not be in a close race for total day viewers.
I hope the Robots and Monsters premiere did well. Most likely not since Nickelodeon only promoted the damn show for a week.
Nick – can you post Saturday’s premiere ratings for “Robot and Monster” (11am on Nickelodeon)? Thanks!
Any numbers for combat pawn trutv 10 30?
They should have packaged Political Animals as a mini-series and scheduled it after Labor Day or beginning on Labor Day. That is when their core audience begins to pay attention to politics. If they wanted to get those who enjoy politics to watch they should have marketed it like Dallas. What a waste of a wonderful cast (except Ciarian Hinds, not a good fit).
Does anyone have WEEDS & EPISODES ratings please?
I was so offended by the portrayal of that brown man in the last Falling Skies episode. Racist or what? Just because he’s chocolate coloured doesn’t mean he stinks of body odour. Disgusting. Axe this ridiculous show now.
Wow 2.7 for True Blood is great. Olympics isnt affecting cable shows at all.
Any chance of getting combat pawn numbers?
Nice for Falling Skies! Hopefully it’ll rise for the last two episodes.
Numbers don’t look good for Franklin & Bash
The new Fairly OddParents did okay considering it wasn’t promoted. I wonder how Robot & Monster did.
@Dirty Mistress What on earth are you talking about??
There was nothing “offensive” about Falling Skies last night
