I bet her numbers will improve if y’all vote for her! http://www.babinfanclub.com/contests/2012/contestants/view-fan-photo-node/1624502126
@Mike
Hope it does get renewed, its a really good show.
SIU did okay, it was the island new episode of the night around a sea of reruns.
My guess- Shake It UP:Made In Japan- August 17- 4.0-5.5 million; How To Rock Cee Lo- August 18- 2.5-3.5 million
@disney rocks… I agree with Shake it Up being the island premiere. But Disney has premiered it as an island show before and managed to get 3.1 million total viewers.
I do think SIU: Made in Japan will do well. I predict 4.7 – 5.5 million. I could be wrong & it could be higher. Disney has an amazing promotion team and surprises when it comes to big premieres like that. It should be fine.
I bet people were surprised about Charleston, more so that they live underground?
2 more episodes to go, and as said weeks ago, there’s Terry O’Quinn.
@Dirty Mistress
As Dennis said, the heck you talking about?
I don’t even remember what you’re talking about even.
It looks like Flip Men and Bar Rescue, my Sunday guilty pleasures, did pretty well. Way to go SPIKE!
@Martin
I hope so too, I really enjoy it, and I love the cast, but I’m watching it as if it was a mini series, just so I won’t be dissapointed if it doesn’t get picked up.
Robot and Monster was against the repeat of Toy Story 3.
Has Glades been renewed for another season?
My opinion/guess of SIU and H2R
SIU Made In Japan- 3.5-4.3 million
H2R Cee Lo- 3.2-4.2 million
To the post saying “that can’t be good for Franklin and Bash” it was a repeat. New episodes are on Tue. Hopefully Leverage gets another season. Last nights episode was better than they have been.
Will Leverage Get renewed at those numberts
I think Dirty Mistress is just trolling. As for Political Animals, I think it was a mistake to put it on USA. It just doesn’t fit in with the rest of their programming and the type of viewers they usually attract. It would have been much better suited on one of the other cable networks, perhaps HBO or Showtime.
@i luv nickelodeon- the HTR series high is 3.3 million, so I’d be shocked if it did more than slightly above that, also HTR seems lead-in dependent, and it will not have a Victorious lead-in, also there is no way a big special of a polar show on Disney will be that low
popular, not polar
@NICK…
Would be kind enough to update us with the MLS Game of the Week on ESPN2 on Sunday evening starting at 9:00 PM EST (LA Galaxy vs. Seattle)?
And MLS game on NBCSPN starting at 7:00 PM EST (featuring Portland vs.Dallas)?
Thank you again for all your input…
My predictions for SIU/H2R
Made In Japan – Anywhere over 4.8
H2R Cee Lo Special – 2.8-3.5
I’ll be shocked if H2R gets above 3.5, i’m surprised Nickelodeon is actually promoting it.
Can anybody get the ratings for Ultimate Spider-Man and Avengers:EMH on Disney XD?
