   Terrible for AHS: ASYLUM, as is the usual this season.

   Where is Washington Heights from MTV?

   People are slowly, but surely coming back to “Top Chef”

   WOW! at American Horror Story. It almost looked like it was losing steam! Nice!

   I wonder how Washington Heights did. I didn’t watch, but not being on this list most likely means disappointing numbers especially how good buck wild premiered and how Catfish has become a hit.

   Money well spent for TNT on Castle. We’ll see if same can be said on Hawaii Five-0 next year (was it ~$2.5 million per episode?!) CBS will do everything to keep H50 on air. Hence another post-AFC cgampionship slot for H50 on Jan 20.

   @Tony JJ

   You have to consider that it had a better lead-in this time. This can only put intro perspective yesterday’s ratings when Iron Man 2 got huge ratings and Justified took advantage of it.

    Seems Washington Heights has been a “slight” disappointment.

    Why people are still watching Duck Dynasty repeats? I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

    Wow Washington Heights must of sucked. I actually like the show. Its completely diff from Jersey Shore, real friends tryna make it. With a decent amount of drama.

    AHS I never really cared for it. Maybe cause I just starting watching this season. Idk its like if I see it cool if I miss it oh well. Maybe next season can reel me in

    Where is Washington Heights ratings? Do you guys think its funny to not post ratings of shows people want to know about purposel?. Because no one is laughing. Ya people are annoying. I know you guys dont post curtain ratings purposely to get people mad. Thats why ya take mad long to post The Lying Game ratings. And the ratings arent even that bad. You guys need to get it together.

    Where is MTV’s Washington Heights? I can’t believe it is not on this list when it was trending on twitter. Something must be wrong. I can’t see an MTV show as heavily promoted as Washington Heights was not on this list.

    Say what? ‘Restaurant Stakeout’ (FOOD) not on the list? I wonder if keeping those vomit-inducing special effects is doing the show in. The effects completely negate the star power of Willie Degel’s mouth: it takes 10 unsynched facial muscles to move it and it keeps moving long after the last word has come out. That thing has a life of its own.

    Yes, Robert and Bill take immeasurable glee from torturing poor viewers by intentionally withholding numbers for random cable shows.

    Demo, but Cable does value viewership more than broadcast.

    Remember.. With Cable channels you subscribe to the channel. If the channel does not carry many popular shows, it is more likely that channel wouldn’t get many subscribers. Popularity bring subscribers.

    BEST episode of AHS for this season. Well deserved ratings. I’m happy.

    I can’t wait to find out about Season 3′s plot and setting.

    I would be surprised if WH got lower than an 0.5 cuz most MTV shows debut around that mark.
