I have bad news for Friday Night Smackdown fans. As of this week, Nielsen is no longer including MyNetworkTV show results in our regular weekly ratings, so currently I cannot continue these posts.
I will get in touch with our contact at MyNetwork TV and see if he can supply us with results quickly and not have to wait for their press releases. If so, I will continue these posts on a regular basis.
In the meantime, you can still find the WWE Raw results in our Top Weekly Cable Shows post.
10/22 Update: Here are Smackdown ratings courtesy of commenter Stefan:
Show -HH Rating/Share – Total Viewers (Millions)- 18-49 Rating – 25-54 Rating
WWE Friday Night Smackdown – 2.0/4 – 3.38 – 1.1/4 – 1.2/4
WHAT!!!!!!!! Do you think it is because of MyNetworkTV not being a MAJOR network?
I saw somewhere it dropped to 3.30-3.40 million, but the demo stayed at 1.1.
Whatever MyNetwork TV might just vanish in a year or two…but Smackdown will find a place on cable…maybe FOX.
