HD, as Robert said, we no longer get weekly adults 18-49 data for every show, so we cannot present it like we do the average viewer and HH rating data.
Even though the 18-49 demo was not perfect, they are still keeping that crappy/unfunny Jim crap as well. I think they are losing a great show that pretty much kept all eyes on them and was a great lead in for 20/20 on Fridays. I wasn't home watching on Fridays but I Tivo'd all season. Hate to see it go.
