AR #12 Ratings

--- Quote from: theschnauzers on January 11, 2008, 02:01:42 AM ---A point or two about TAR's ratings averages. The Nielsen weekly ratings don't really include much of the DVR time-shifted viewing any more than the overnights do; which is a problem trying to use those weekly ratings to compute the season's average.
DVR penitration is now estimated to be 20 % of the audience. At the beginning of the season, CBS was giving some number folding in the DVR-within-3-days viewers, but that doesn't help figure out the averages because the weekly numbers come out on Tuesday, which hasn;t already been three days.
CBS did mention an average audience for TAR appropaching 12 million at one point earlier this season (I think it was Thanksgiving weeked, if I recall correctly. The AP list of the Top 20 shows this week also included the placing of the listed shows for the season to date, and TAR was 24th (keep in mind that the listing would include shows that started their season after TAR did, and include shows that ended their seasons before TAR will,
From what I've seen t TAR 12 average numbers (with the DVR viewers included should be placing it only behind season 7 in the season average for viewers. Looking at it a different way, TAR has finished in the top 30 every week, has finished in the top 20 in 7 of the 9 weeks, and finished in the top 10 twice, IIRC. On that alone, TAR is having one of its best seasons ratings-wise.
--- End quote ---
The ratings I post (and what is now common) is any viewing in that day. So it already does include some DVR usage. Then they have the all important live plus 3 data, and that has been released occasionally throughout the season and TAR usually doesn't show up in it (for either top twenty overall, or ten largest gainers for DVR useage). And that is the important one (since ads rates are set by it). And its really difficult to gauge without seeing how it fairs (Some do very well, but many are still below ten percent). And thats why I tend not to mention it. So far I have seen nothing (though I haven't checked since late December, boring TV period that it is), to give us any indication on how this particular show does (on a typical night) with DVR's. It certainly isn't on the high end (that I can say), whether its middle of the road or below average, I honestly don't know.
The also know that in years past that the VCR also held additional viewers but they were never able to accurate track that data in a reliable fashion.
Studios will also list live plus 7, ad really those numbers on a practical level don't matter. There was one show that I was following that got a 34% increase on the live plus 7. Unfortunately most of that was after the 3 days, where typically advertisers don't give a damn and won't consider for ad rates.

:yess:
Our Show is awesome. :lol3: :tup:
Earlier in the evening on CBS was veteran 60 Minutes (Viewers: #2, 9.49 million; A18-49: #3, 1.9/ 5) and The Amazing Race 12 (Viewers: #2, 11.63 million; A18-49: #3, 3.8/ 9) from 7-9 p.m. Worth noting for The Amazing Race was growth of 2.14 million viewers and 100 percent in the demo out of 60 Minutes.
Thats with absolutely no overrun. :jam: :tup:
This is the best non overrun episode that wasn't in I don't know how long (I will check later today).
I was hoping that the lonesome dove sequel would help, did it?

TARAsia Fan:
That's fantastic news, mswood. I thought the fact that the Golden Globes Awards Announcements would draw low and they did. Despite the fact that Fox had the much-hyped Sarah Connor Chronicles, fans stayed with CBS.
Next week, CBS will be helped with the ratings now the Cowboys are not in the NFC Championship. This season has built as it's gone along and fans have enjoyed the cast.

Awesome that it even increase another 20,000 viewers with finals.
Tonight, I think I will check to see if this the best rating in the last two years for a non overrun episode of AR.
And would you believe, Puddin. I actually forgot final numbers came out today?
