Arrow repeat adjusted up.
Arrow repeat went up to a .3 and more viewers too and Nikita lost viewers and stayed the same in the demo.
good for arrow. Not to mention Arrow and SPN did great Wednesday for repeats hitting over 1 million viewers (arrow @ 0.4/1.85 and SPN @ 0.4/1.26). Atleast the repeats can break 1 million, hell Arrow almost broke 2 lol. Nikita also almost broke 1 million as well as beauty and the beast. Vd barely broke the million mark.
And we all know Hart of Dixie, Emily Owens, 90210, as well as the late gossip girl never would’ve come close to breaking 1 mil. Out of all the shows I would bet my money on Hart of Dixie to join the list of CW shows to break 1 mil in repeats. The others well fat chance in hell, I mean, 90210 can’t even break 1 mil for its 100th Episode.
That’s pretty good for Arrow. Wasn’t that the same episode they repeated on Wednesday?
I hope they stop with the Friday Arrow reruns come Jan because I think some of those that used to watch on Wednesdays shifted to Fridays because of them. TCD will air its first episode at the week Arrow returns, so here’s hoping they rerun it instead.
They are bumping the Friday reruns of Arrow in Jan.
They are preempting 90210 and BatB to repeat The Carrie Diaries pilot rather than airing it on Friday, but they are repeating the following episodes of Carrie Diaries on Friday until Cult arrives.
Instead of reruns on Fridays the CW should resurrect Reaper. That was a fun little show SPN lite if you will & the ratings they had then would be passable today.
@Mi
Don’t think it works that way. Not only do repeats not matter that much and the audience of the show has not dropped very much, but anybody who is into the show is not going to wait to watch a new episode until a Friday, where it sometimes is run, when they can watch it in its regular Wednesday slot, instead.
@Dan S
Reaper’s not coming back. It’s sad, but that’s the way it is.
Why was a Dateline repeat so high?
When are you guys coming back?
