via press note:
In Late-Night Metered Markets Friday night:
Note coming soon
Nielsen TV Ratings: ©2013 The Nielsen Company. All Rights Reserved.
NOTE: All ratings are "live plus same day" from Nielsen Media Research unless otherwise indicated.
Definitions:
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. More information on ratings is available here.
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.)
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 football 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.
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.
For more information see Numbers 101 and Numbers 102.
Comments should be back on.
Well, I don’t know If Nikita is coming back next year.
According to me, It looks not very good.
Sorry to hear about the malware issue(s), TVBTN. Sometimes it’s kinda nice to read just the ratings results without the commentary
Touch
so 90210 is already cancelled, why not NIKITA?
what? syndication? blehhhh..
I was boring without comments and all people arguing here. Alos all friends and etc. Glad that site is back with full force.
I mean IT not i.
Think both BB were repeats. Not sure for Shark Tank.
Hurray for Malibu Country 1.4!!!!! Now maybe they will keep a real man on the show!!! Funny how they use Blake Shelton as the father image for the kids! Where is the X??? Anyway, I bet Blake brought in a half million men to the show!!! Please,,, no more Chick Show!!!

To prove my point,,, watch the next 2 weeks of MC.. There will be “real men” on the show. If ABC promotes the next couple episodes, then they should be able to bring in some male viewers. I am betting on a 1.4-1.5 for this friday and 1.3-1.4 for the week after. If they cant hit those numbers then they should fire all the writers or cancel the show.
NOT A BAD PREDICTION FROM LAST WEEKS COMMENTS!!!
Malibu Country surged week to week by 27% in Adults 18-49 to post its best rating in 6 weeks and its biggest overall audience since the middle of December – since 1/11/13 and 12/14/12, respectively.
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU APPEAL TO THE MALE VIEWER!!! WAKE UP MC WRITERS!!!
NOW JUST GET THAT GUNSLINGER, PLAYBOY, SUCCESSFUL AND ARROGANT X-HUSBAND ON THE SHOW TO HAVE HIS SAY ABOUT THINGS!!! LOL
GO MC!!!!!!
I think the CW will probably renew Nikita and HOD but I think they only have another season in them
I’m not sure what they are going to do with BATB or TCD, I’m swaying towards TCD for renewal, as it is cheaper to make and it can be paired with HOD
Cult will definitely be cancelled it’s a no brainer
It hasn’t been a good year for the cw, all shows a flop apart from arrow.
Nikita flat at 0.3? Yeesh. The show’s fans better hope the Force is strong with syndication because that is a bad number, Fridays or not.
nooooooooooooooooooo why nikita .3 i hope it goes up
10pm Blue Bloods episode wasn’t all-new.
Ouch for Nikita. I do understand the reasoning behind the renewal for syndication argument, but with ratings like these I’m trying to manage my expectations. On the plus side, there’s no more breaks till the end of the season; hopefully that will allow the show to build some momentum.
Great that the comments are back. Lol at Nikita bleeing viewers every week. 0.2 by may.
Last Man and Malibu will be returning. No other show on any other network did better than this pair all night. Should be expanded two a 2 hour comedy block, followed by 20/20 at 10PM. Can move Shark Tank to Tuesdays at 8PM to help that hour of death for them…
@MARC:::
I hope your right!!!! LMS is strong,,, but MC needs to keep those numbers up for the next 3 weeks!!!! They just need to pull in some of the male viewers from LMS… too many are tuning out when MC comes on!!!
LMS hits 1.6 on Friday while The Neighbours hit 1.7 on wednesday from a 2.2 lead-in and a 3.8 lead-out…
