K8ie, I guess the question is “would anything do well out of RERUN of House. Of the current Fox schedule I can’t really think of anything that would do well that wouldn’t do better where it is. Conceivably Hell’s Kitchen is a good fit, but it makes more sense after Idol for a couple of reasons: both are unscripted shows, and HK does very well in the 18-49 demo, so trying to capture Idol’s tremendous base of 18-49s makes sense.

I think HK would probably do very well after a NEW episode of House, but I believe the new episodes of House air at 9pm.

It looks to me like NA benefited from CBS comedy viewers who weren’t into bball.

What do you think – would anything do well after House?

If time, other considerations and Bill G. allow, I will keep it there until TSCC is officially renewed!

Now see, Robert, and here I thought you’d be well on your way to converting half of this page into a Summer Glau fansite by now.

hmm…wait…that post with Summer’s picture on it has been in the sidebar for a while now…

This is great! Five weeks after the last T:TSCC episode and the first comment references Summer Glau!

Maria if your question is: “is performance in the 18-49 demo significant?”, my answer is: yes.

But I have no way of knowing if those two shows (NA and TSCC) are competing for one spot. It’s not unthinkable that both would be brought back. If it is a battle between the two, I’d think all other things being equal, TSCC’s numbers give it the advantage.

Hi, I was wondering about New Amsterdam’s numbers. I compared them to Terminator and the total viewers this week is still low compared to the usual episode of Terminator but don’t understand that demo number. I assume Terminator still ranks higher because it’s number is still higher but is it significant?

If you’re looking for all plausible explanations for how a BBT repeat pulls in more viewers than a new episode, maybe the repeat was the episode that mentioned Summer?
