What happened to Phineas and Ferb? Usually it gains on Jessie as a lead in, but that’s quite the drop-off.
And to the comment “there’s no helping Ant Farm” there isn’t in that they have the lame slot of 8pm to lead off the night – last season when Jessie was at 8pm -and Ant Farm followed at 8:30 it always went up from Jessie. I agree with you – Id like to see them maybe move Austin & Ally to Friday at 8pm and move Ant Farm to Sunday – then again – all these numbers are meaningless because Disney runs 24/7 and all there shows do great and even better in repeats and On Demand, DVR and Hulu and iTunes, etc.
I’m glad Haven is on Fridays. My dvr records smackdown and it records an extra 5 min. Caught the season 3 premier of Haven, liked it and have now kept up. Caught up on season 1 on you tube. Now I have to hunt down season 2.
NBA is way up this season in the ratings already.
Smackdown seems to be less of a concern than Raw for the WWE right now. Haven has been steady all season, SyFy is probably definitely bringing it back as its been a great match with the Smackdown audience.
Yaaay for Haven!
So that’s proof that Jessie doesn’t help shows airing on the same night.
