Comments on: Weekly Network Ratings: April 7-13, Fox Edges CBS http://tvbythenumbers.com/2008/04/15/weekly-network-ratings-april-7-13-fox-edges-cbs/3338 Nielsen TV Show Ratings, Data and More Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:37:45 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: ~Anna~ http://tvbythenumbers.com/2008/04/15/weekly-network-ratings-april-7-13-fox-edges-cbs/3338#comment-10018 ~Anna~ Sun, 20 Apr 2008 07:48:27 +0000 http://tvbythenumbers.com/2008/04/15/weekly-network-ratings-april-7-13-fox-edges-cbs/3338#comment-10018 The people in charge of CW forgot to read up on basic Business 101. WB had hits (at least in terms of this netlet) with Buffy and Angel. When they combined with UPN to form CW, they gifted a couple of more hits: Smallville and Supernatural. But chasing after that so-called coveted demographic turned Smallville into a former shell of itself by systematically removing any actor over age 35 from the line-up. Then they tried to mandate T&A into Supernatural as well, rather than allowing the creators to just do their jobs and continue to run their shows successfully and with quality. CW =IS= a trainwreck, but there are a couple of things to consider in these numbers: the effect of the strike and the fact that CW is not in all markets, whereas the other networks are. The reality fare is understandable since it doesn't cost much to produce. But Gossip Girl, How to Teach Filthy Rich Girls, and a 90210 revival... is it me or is there a (bad)pattern here?

However, I did a back of the envelope guess, unfortunately in the comments of a post so I can't search for it, and it seemed that the advantage of not programming that hour wasn't huge, more like 10%. Unless you think that Fox programmers are so bad they can barely program the 15 hours they do now and whatever they'd add would get 0 viewers ;) Jim, Fox definitely gets an advantage not having to program the 10pm hour.

Not really fair they get to just program two hours a night and not have to average in the third hour of the night. They have few hits other than American Idol. As for CBS, they will never catch FOX in the 18-49 demo as long as they still have shows like "Cold Case". I still say FOX should have to average in a zero for the 10:00 hour.

Advertisers simply wont foot the $3 million per episode cost of Jericho. What people dont realize is that its really the advertisers who care about ratings - they use them to decide how much to pay for a show. Jericho bombed on SCI-FI when they tried to rerun Season 1 - they axed it after only 15 of the 22 episodes. If Jericho couldnt make it on SCI-FI, its over.

And like every one else that just posted, the only reason i keep watching is because of Supernatural. A great show like that does not deserve that network, they keep pouring all their advertising into stupid teen drama like one tree hill and gossip girls. in case they haven't noticed television viewers have gotten more mature, even teenagers. I just wish Supernatural would move to a network that deserves them and completely obliterate the CW for good. I agree, the CW is probably the most horrible network on television today.

The CW made sure to destroy any loyalty fans felt towards the CW when they yanked SN from the air and replaced it with Reaper, while refusing to comment on the shows future return. At the point many viewers, myself included, began boycotting all CW shows except for Supernatural. They sht theirselves in the foot by ignoring a strong and loyal fanbase, tinkering with the show and jerking it around. I don't feel sorry for them at all. I just hope Supernatural can be sold to the Sci Fi channel, or pretty much ANY other network. I agree, the CW is most definately a train wreck!

Bill didn't say Supernatural was a train wreck, he said the network was (and it's more than true). Although, truth be told, I think season 3 of Supernatural has been a train wreck due to network interference. But that's another post for another time . . . The CW is a network just waiting to be shut down. Their programming is so stupid, sleazy and immature that not even their golden target audience of 18-34 year olds want to watch it - and yet they continue to beat the dead horse with trash like Girlicious and Farmer Wants a Wife (who came up with that ridiculous name?). My guess is it will be shut down in the next year. CBS is going into the red at a fast rate, adn the WB is working on their own programming venture separate from the CW. Bottom line: Bill, you're right on! I am a huge Supernatural fan, but I have no idea why people are getting Supernaturally defensive. Bill didn’t say Supernatural was a train wreck, he said the network was (and it’s more than true).
