great for PLL what did the lying game get? And did anyone find bunheads numbers from monday? i never saw them.
Good for PLL. I didn’t watch last night’s episode yet. I just watched last week’s last night and it was great having Laura Leighton’s character getting more airtime and now being more heavily involved in the story.
“I’m scared for next week. PLL and TLG will both face American Idol.”
Idol is going to do what, like high 3s? The days of being scared of Idol are over. Anyways PLL at least has room to fall. TLG is already at cancellation levels.
I was hoping that the robot combat league would do better than an 0.6. It was a great show.
Im not afraid for PLL and TLG game next week.. the episodes both look awesome. People will tune in.. Idol is stale and doesnt really pose a threat anymore. And Rob ABCFamily has had nothing but good things to say about TLG all season i doubt its on its way to cancellation.
@Nikki
Bunheads (9:00) – ABC Family
1.012 million viewers, #25; 0.531 million adults 18-49 (0.4 rating)
@Rob
American Idol is still younger skewing, and bring big numbers regardless.
@Rob60990 the same with S@B that will be cancelled next year:)It already less than 2 millions views for your hit show and .6-.8.It’s not steady and next year it will be getting .4-.6,mark my words
@Nikki Thank you Nikki!Finally someone knock some sense into him.He says that he doesn’t hate the show but your always calling it a flop and saying it’s pathetic?Is that not hatred rob?BTW i actually think S@B is a good show but it’s not as good as last season which is why the ratings are not the same as last season
WOW! Pretty Little Liars is on fire this season that finale in three weeks is definitely doing around 3.5 million and high 1s in the demo. It’s 18-34 numbers are beyond scary.
The Lying Game is usually steady but its a shame more people aren’t watching its such a clever scheming show and the Sutton character is so awesome.
Cougar Town should not be doing badly with BBT reruns as its lead-in. The highest repeat of Courteney Cox’s old show Friends last night almost did better than CT.
I still think the FOX deal for UFC is not turning out that good the Saturday specials do well but everything else flops. They were in the perfect situation at SPIKE who repeated their product’s programs to death all day. Now they got Bellator which just like TNA over the WWE is a superior growing product. Bellator and TNA in a few years might be overtaking the UFC and WWE on television.
So I should call a show that loses half its lead-in good?
I am predicting a 0.5 for TLG, and 1.3m viewers
Can we try avoid the FLOP posts infesting the cable listings please?
@ronald, total viewers don’t matter, just demo and 0.7-0.8. Is good for abcfamily.I think that makes Switched the second highest rated show on abcfamily.Also, the ratings may be down due to bad writing like you think but also because shows loose viewers as they get older and because it’s airing during the fall & winter when there’s a lot more competition.You accuse Rob of being a hater yet you bash S@B, you point your finger at somebody ,you got three pointing back at you.Considering how low Bunheads,Jane by Design rated, I’m sure abcfamily is happy with S@B ratings,especially as Secret Life is ending and has really dropped in ratings in season four and five, it’s not the hit it once was but that happens.
@ Brandy
Viewers do matter and their main target demos are the 12-17 and 18-34 demos not the 18-49.
How would Cougar Town perform without TBBT lead in? My guess 0.6 lol
@Rob60990 you cannot expect a show that has been off almost a year then magically expect it to hit high numbers,the only advertisement it had got was on Abc.PLL is promoted outside of Abc and so is S@B(I see S@B is magazine all the time).Almost every network has shows that loses most of it’s lead in.Every shows that has been behind PLL has not done as well because PLL fans will not even give shows a chance.That is why Jane and NLTOCK were cancelled.Jane by design scored mostly .4 behind Pll and i don’t even need to explain NLTOCK,you can figure that one out.The ratings are not that high but it is not doing terribly besides last week’s numbers plus it’s cheap and does well on selling.
Can we lay off TLG hate please? Just because of 1 nut fan dont brand us all like him.
@Brandy you are right but shows usually receive their highest ratings during the first two season and then decline.If you look back at secret life ratings it wasnt that bad and it is in it 5th season Ex:.7,.8.8,.6,.6,.7,.5,.5,.5,.6,.8
WOO HOO!….TLG got mentioned in the press release!

@KC Alex Smith thanks for shining some sense into her because she doesnt know too much about cable ratings and i agree with John A let’s stop the bashing on S@B and TLG because they are both great shows
