Brandy, 90210 and Gossip Girl are no threats lol…
@ Bill Gorman
Especially considering it was an “Oh No, Romo!” kind of night (5 INTs)
I watched Eureka, Warehouse 13, and Haven and I couldn’t make it past the 2nd episode of Alphas. It must have improved in quality past those episodes.
@Noé
The best 3 shows to ever grace the network are infact.
1. Stargate(SG1/SGA) 2. Battlestar Galactica 3. Eureka
Then of course, these are closely followed by Warehouse 13, Haven, Farscape, and of course Alphas.
I think most people here would agree, but of course swapping Stargate for BSG.
Alphas is aired three times in one night I cant be the only one who would rather watch monday night football and then catch a later showing coukd account for the bad raitings.
I was hoping for a slight increase for Switched… oh well. I just hope it’s not falling anymore.
Looks like S@B is going to stabilize at 1.4 million viewers with a 0.6 demo. Not good. Not bad.
“You know why MNF ratings were gigantic? One word: Cowboys. Any game involving the Dallas Cowboys is going to be a ratings beast, regardless of the team’s record.”
Yep. Nobody brings the ratings like the Cowboys. We’ve only been doing this for five years, I wonder if the ratings would be a lot higher, if they were ever really good?
Hoarders and Intervention at 0.4 and 0.5 seems pretty low. Is that normally the numbers these shows have??
DA BEARS!!!!!
CHICAGO & DALLAS = BLOCKBUSTER RATINGS!
It’s time for the WWE to start slipping real badly in the ratings they really need to change that product it is way too predictable and boring. Only 3.4 million viewers that the lowest I’ve seen for them in a while. If TNA was in a better situation they could probably get those ratings.
Well, CN’s birthday was a success. Regular Show finally got over 3 million viewers.
16 million viewers for Bears-Cowboys topped everything on broadcast last night and it aired on cable.
Is ABC going to try to get Monday Night Football back from ESPN to duplicate Sunday Night Football’s success on NBC? DWtS is dying for them and they will be destroyed without it on Monday nights.
The NFL seems to have gotten bigger since the last time ABC had the rights in 2005. So MNF would be huge on ABC these days.
Didn’t last weeks Seahawks Packers game do over 16 million viewers? Don’t see all the love for the cowboys.
The current slate of ABCFAMILY series have seemed to have bottomed out and found there audience. Most shows..even the ones which aired over the Summer typically averaged 0.6-0.7..with the exception of PLL.
This is crap. Switched deserves better then a 0.6. Quality show with strong writing and acting.
switched is steady.. it will pick up. the shows good.
HOW BOUT DEM CHOKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!
Think it’s curtains for Alphas…a 1.0?, lasts nights episode was terrible though!, the final three should be action packed though based on the spoilers flying about.
S@B…still think it’s doing rather well, but CW kicks off next week…will 90210 or GG nix it’s numbers?
Be interesting to see how the PLL special does in a couple of weeks.
Any numbers for Inbetweeners?
