Robert Seidman They said it would be first in total viewers and third in the demo for the fall quarter. Click-through and read the whole thing, it's worth the read!

TSCC will still beat the CBS 8:00 Monday night comedies this fall. Prison Break will be axed in May. So will 24.

TVaholic Steven,

I think FOX had second thoughts about using Moment of Truth this fall after it performed rather poorly this summer.

30 Rock's problem is that they fall to Ugly Betty.

Which hours are measured in the daytime and primetime slot?

Robert Seidman's picture
Robert Seidman Steven, primetime is for cable is always 8pm-11pm, even on Sunday. The total day is for the total day but only the total of hours broadcasted. Nick, for example, is less than 24 hours because of Nick at Night during primetime counts as a separate channel, but others like ESPN are 24x7.

I saw the show and actually liked it. I'm happy for AMC. They have found a hit that works. I'd rather watch it than Army Wives or In Plain Sight. I'm watching it again next week.

How did "Fab Five" do on Lifetime last night?

Robert Seidman Steven, no idea at all. Just so you'll know, we only get cable ratings once a week (Tuesdays, for the prior Monday-Sun) and only the Top 40 at that. Sometimes the cable nets will pass us ratings outside the top 40, but when that happens you can usually find it elsewhere by doing a Google search. But if there will be any public data available for Fab Five, I doubt you will see it online anywhere until tomorrow (Monday).

How does The View do overall against The Price Is Right?

Robert Seidman's picture
Robert Seidman Steven, I can't comment on this week in particular because I didn't see the data for TPIR. But generally when I have seen it my experience is this: it gets WAY more viewers than most daytime fare, but less in the 18-49 (male or female).

Is that the reason why a CW show has never reached The Top 20 in ratings?

Mad Men will do better this season because more viewers are watching AMC.

in Overnight Nielsen Ratings for Mad Men Premiere Up Over 100%! on TVbytheNumbers
You're right it did. They don't have as much money as USA and TNT do to promote their shows.

Robert Seidman Steven, I was sure I replied to your first comment in this thread but now I don't see my reply. Probably a sign that I need to back away from the computer for a while! I agree with youIt's been reported that they had a $25 million budget to promote Mad Men this season. That seems really high, but I know for sure they're doing at least some promotin because I saw several ads for the premiere while watching ESPN last week.

You're right. Not everyone gets AMC. They more likely get Nickeloden, Disney Channel, Lifetime, TNT, TBS, and USA. It probably is AMC's most watched show. I would try to watch it if it was on a different day and time.

Army Wives and In Plain Sight are way better. How did that show do against those two?

Mad Men is terrible. It can't even compete against Spongebob Squarepants and Hannah Montana. LOL.

Robert Seidman Oh please, Steven -- SpongeBob is king (and lords even over Hannah Montana!). It beats Dexter, Entourage and even my The Wire by a wide margin. That is no basis to judge the quality of a show.

in Biggest New Hit? Biggest New Flop? You Make the Call on TVbytheNumbers
The Mentalist will become a disappointment because it is exactly like Medium and Psych. They will lose to Dancing with the Stars and Fringe. I don't know if it will beat The Biggest Loser or not. The Biggest Flop will be the The Ex-List. It is stupid. Judging Amy was way better than that show will be. Without A Trace will problems with Law And Order: SVU. The only comedy that does well with CBS is Two and A Half Men. Can Worst Week beat Samantha, Who? Will Viewers watch CBS Wednesday Comedy. I don't think so. Bones will be the most watched show on that hour. Wednesday at 9 will be very tough. Most males will be either watching Deal or No Deal or Criminal Minds. Most females will be watching Private Practice. Fox's 9:00 hour comedies will be cancelled. Scrubs on ABC is a dumb idea. Last time ABC did good with Tuesday comedy was with Grace Under Fire, Roseanne, Coach, and Full House. People are not watching comedy anymore. Comedy now comes in a form of a dramedy. Monday at 9:00 will be very tough. FOX will cancel Prison Break because it won't beat Dancing with the Stars, Two and A Half Men, and Heroes. Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles will beat the CBS 8:00 comedies. Knight Rider will be a disappointment. Wednesday at 10:00 has potential for the 3 networks. Most interesting will be will most women watch 'Dirty Sexy Money' or 'Lipstick Jungle'. Sunday at 9:00 will be very tough. All networks have great shows at that time slot.

To me, the emmys don't mean crap. They are what their critics think. What do the people think? That is why I like the People's Choice Awards.

TV by the Numbers Steven, We only see the top 40 cable shows and Secret LIfe wasn't one of them. My quick Googling failed to find a press release with the numbers, but it could be out there.
