   Face Off did not help out Hot Set on Syfy at all.

   I love SOA next best show on TV after Breaking Bad. I understand there will be 2 more seasons of SOA before they end it in 2014. Pretty good numbers also for WC & CA

   @cimmer

   Yeah, odd that as both are pretty much the same type of show. Pity people didn’t give it a chance.

   That said if you discount wrestling. Face Off is the most successful show in the past 12 months on the network. Infact last season hit as high as 1.0 18-49.

   It currently rates higher than most CW shows too. Including Nikita, Supernatural and a half dozen others.

   White Collar has never had a new, decent lead in show in its history on USA yet still has a great 4 season ratings run. Best cast on TV with hottest star heading to the big time! Need to cherish Neal Caffrey now since Matt off to bigger things for certain. Shame poor Covert can’t build on the White Collar lead it receives. It’s a weaker show than Collar but still should add numbers. R&I a snoozer for cat ladies but look at how well similar shows of that nature do. Go figure.

   @plk – Rizzoli & Isles is in reruns. The last new episode had 6 million total and was 1.3 in the demo. That’s a helluva lot more than just “cat ladies” watching.

   @Simon Jester totally agree. I am not a “cat lady” and my friends are not either and we love R&I. Yes, R&I is in repeats so the ratings for it listed today are for a repeated episode. I come her occasionally and have never posted before but I do not understand why the hate on TNT shows??

    @plk Wow, there must a way for you to rain praises on your precious Matt Bomer without you bashing on other shows. We get it…he’s great. You love him. No need for the nastiness.

    @Simon Jester – right, so 1.3 viewers that matter, 4.7 cat ladies that don’t really count. I was more joking and attempting to make a point to KarenM who rags on WC each weak that R&I doesn’T kill WC by any stretch, just a few points higher in the only numbers that matter. I DVR R&I, help it with its “counted” numbers, but it lacks the Bomer-DeKay magic.

    Cover Affairs beats White Collar in viewers almost every single episode, but not in the demo…

    @AX sorry if offended, not like first time someone speaks honestly with opinions here.. Not bashing, just stating opionions and facts, similar to your Covert-WC comment last week, no? I like R&I and Covert just confounds me it doesn’t do better with premise and lead in. Sorry if I offended.

    Wow dont people ever stop watching BBT? Its funny that it beats almost all original cable shows most nights.

    @plk

    You seem such an expert yet you don’t know that the 1.3 is not 1.3 million (hence your wrong 4.7 cat ladies remark)

    White Collar has the same lead of ALL the other USA 9 pm shows. Burn Notice always had the same kind of lead-in but I’ve never seen its fans blaming the lead-ins for its diminishing ratings. Accept that WC is not the huge success you want it to be. It’s just a decent to good performer and nothing more.

    Despite the bad reviews that it’s receiving, Royal Pains did just as good as WC this year.

    The last three episodes of Covert Affairs have been the best in the series’ history. I hope the writers can maintain the program’s intensity.

    Why is Counting Cars and not White Collar number two? They both have the same demo unless my eyes deceive me. How is the list organized?

18. silvit

    Posted September 19, 2012 at 8:55 PM

    @Tessa

    Because they don’t have the exact same demo. The numbers you see are rounded (with the new demo correspondence)

    WC=1.287 million 18-40
    Counting Cars=1.323 million 18-49

    Not getting into the childish back and forth but White Collar and Covert Affairs are in the toughest and second toughest spots of week. Royal Pains and the other USAs have it easier than Tuesday nights and should produce better results

    Thanks silvit. That makes sense.

    Will miss White Collar. Really enjoyed watching it Tuesday nights. What a great show.
