Definitions:
Fast Affiliate Ratings: These first national ratings, including demographics, are available at approximately 11 AM (ET) the day after telecast, and are released to subscribing customers daily. These data, from the National People Meter sample, are strictly time-period information, based on the normal broadcast network feed, and include all programming on the affiliated stations, sometimes including network programming, sometimes not. The figures may include stations that did not air the entire network feed, as well as local news breaks or cutaways for local coverage or other programming. Fast Affiliate ratings are not as useful for live programs and are likely to differ significantly from the final results, because the data reflect normal broadcast feed patterns. For example, with a World Series game, Fast Affiliate Ratings would include whatever aired from 8-11PM on affiliates in the Pacific Time Zone, following the live baseball game, but not game coverage that begins at 5PM PT. The same would be true of Presidential debates as well as live award shows and breaking news reports.
Rating: Estimated percentage of the universe of TV households (or other specified group) tuned to a program in the average minute. Ratings are expressed as a percent.
Share (of Audience): The percent of households (or persons) using television who are tuned to a specific program, station or network in a specific area at a specific time. (See also, Rating, which represents tuning or viewing as a percent of the entire population being measured.)
Time Shifted Viewing – Program ratings for national sources are produced in three streams of data – Live, Live+Same Day (Live+SD) and Live+7 Day. Time shifted figures account for incremental viewing that takes place with DVRs. Live+Same Day (Live+SD) include viewing during the same broadcast day as the original telecast, with a cut-off of 3:00AM local time when meters transmit daily viewing to Nielsen for processing. Live+7 Day ratings include incremental viewing that takes place during the 7 days following a telecast.

“It seems like it has gotten a lot of its mojo back”
Agreed. Though, I don’t really think it lost much of it and I don’t understand the folks who gave up on it. I really enjoyed last season, but you can’t have a whole series where Emily just knocks people down one after one. And as convoluted as it is (it is a tv show, tv shows are all convoluted), the whole Initiative aspect makes much more sense than the Greyson’s one day deciding to down a plane and call it a day. That makes no sense. Putting that plane downing as part of a much bigger conspiracy where the uber rich play with the course of history and where that plane downing was just one event, to me, makes more sense. Thus, this season is unraveling what that is and how the Initiative interplay with the Greyson’s, and how, in turn, Emily’s mission is made the more complicated.
I’m lovin’ it…
@Nick
It’s beyond obvious by now. I honestly don’t see how people haven’t realised that by now
Revenge has been a mess most of the season. Blaming competition is even more stupid. If the show was good enough it would not be droping this hard.
@Ultima
Sorry if I like to begin with the first comment when I read… You won’t believe it but I do the same when I read a book !
Thanks for your worrying about my problems but I don’t have any, really. And I’m OK, I complained about ‘this person’, now I’d like to move on, if you don’t mind.
Was revenge good last night, because I missed it?
I can’t believe AFV beat Revenge?!?
@Greg
Next week, we’ll see how much the bad scheduling has hurt both shows, but I think both will rate solidly, if lower than what they used to rate back in the fall (OUAT at 2.6-2.8 and Revenge at 2.0-2.2).
2.6-2.8 is not normal for Once Upon a Time. In the fall, normal was low-mid 3′s. 2.0-2.2 is also not not normal for Revenge. Mid 2′s is normal for that show.
How is MAX wrong? He is completely right about the downward spiral for Revenge and the upward trend for Scandal. What has he really been wrong about? All i see is a bunch of whiny Revenge fans catching feelings.
I agree Comparing revenge and Desperate Housewives is stupid, Desperate Housewives was attracting 25-30 million viewers in its 1st/2nd season. You cant even compare the two shows
Revenge it is just dead.
Max. Shut up about Revenge. No one cares.
and by the way Revenge was really good last night, easily the best episode of this season and one of the better ones of the show. Too bad it got wasted against the Grammys and The Walking Dead. We will see next week but I do not see it getting back to the 2′s. Its not the type of show to miss and get back to. Its among the most serialized drama’s on TV.
I would watch reruns of old bad shows over the Grammy awards any day there are way to many of them and they are boring. It does hurt the shows we all love to watch, but the next couple of weeks will hurt with the stupid oscars too.
@ars041
“the last new episode for revenge got a 2.2″
ummm, No it didn’t. In fact, Revenge has been below 2.0 for a while now.
By the way this sunday is NBA all-star game. After that any others award shows…i think MTV schedule their video award for sunday too.
@psychic
Max. Shut up about Revenge. No one cares.
As illustrated by the dozens of replies he gets, including yours?
@kbmv
“All i see is a bunch of whiny Revenge fans catching feelings.”
Or fans frustrated over the fact that the average American viewer has such a short attention span, a good story can’t be unraveled.
Or fans of both shows (like me, and both shows being “Revenge” and “Scandal”) who don’t understand why people like to polarize viewers & fans.
Alas…
Last night’s episode of Revenge was very good, the part with Victoria was great. And the promo for next week looks great. Hope someone dies and they solve all this story lines. They did some cleaning house last night but the next episode must be the real deal. Not giving up on Revenge, i love it.
“ummm, No it didn’t. In fact, Revenge has been below 2.0 for a while now.”
A while? Only 2 episodes, while Scandal has had 4 episodes below a 2 against nothing.
Wow at that 1.4. Is Max actually, incredibly, going to have the last laugh?
Personally I’m more surprised that NBC did that well. A rerun! Of a documentary on 80s TV! In SWEEPS! Against a special that does better than regular season NFL *and* the #1 drama on television! And it *still* did better than Do No Harm!
