Amazing Race Season 15 ratings
theschnauzers:
Even though ad time for TAR is lower in cost than some of the other shows on Sunday nights, don't forget that CBS pays less for rights to air and production compared to those other shows. CBS is making more from TAR than Three Rivers or Cold Case, as scripted drama are more expensive to produce.
mswood:
Well technically we did have 10,000 more viewers this week then last, but still having are two most watched episodes be on nights without a sports overrun is simply awesome news (as we typically always do better with an overrun).
Also very, very good news is how much the adults 18-49 demo is doing. Especially without the help of the NFL.
Look at the rest of CBS lineup.
60 Minutes 2.1-2.2 for the last two weeks.
TAR 3.4 and 3.3
Three Rivers 1.7 and 1.6
Cold Case 1.9 and 1.7
That demo is what pays 85% of the ad rates that CBS gets. We increased 50% over 60 minutes and CBS lost 48% of that audience with Three Rivers. TAR is currently the only show on Sunday for CBS that is still competitive.
And why are we still not getting 13 full episodes a cycle? It does not make sense.

And don't forget the Travelocity product placement, and now the Discover Card infomercial(?) at episode's end. More $$$ for the network. (Don't see those on the scripted dramas either.)
Jobby:
The Amazing Race just gets better. I've introduced at least more than 10 friends to watch the show and you can guess how many of them got hooked up and watched every episode ever since... :funny:
This is just... GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!! :jumpy: :jumpy: :jumpy: :jumpy:
TARAsia Fan:
The overnights are out and TAR was again helped by the NFL overrun.

-Ratings Breakdown:
NBC stood well above the Sunday competition, with a healthy 33 percent metered market advantage over second-place CBS. Third overall was diluted ABC, followed by Fox, which always picks up steam among target adults 18-49.
Sunday Night Football on NBC, Dallas at Philadelphia, averaged a hefty 14.3 rating/23 share in the overnights from 8:30-11:45 p.m. ET, with the half-hour breakdown in primetime in follows:
Sunday Night Football (NBC)
8:30 p.m.: 13.7/21 (#1)
9:00 p.m.: 14.5/22 (#1)
9:30 p.m.: 15.1/23 (#1)
10:00 p.m.: 13.7/22 (#1)
10:30 p.m.: 14.4/24 (#1)
Earlier in the evening on NBC was Football Night in America as follows:
Football Night in America (NBC)
7:00 p.m. – part one: 3.6/ 6 (#2t)
7:30 p.m. – part two: 5.4/ 9 (#2)
8:00 p.m. – part three: 9.0/14 (#2)
As always, interest builds as the half-hours progress.
Since CBS’ primetime rotation started about 15 minutes late due to a football overall, all individual program results are approximate and broken out as follows:
CBS/Sunday
7:00 p.m. – NFL Football/60 Minutes: 14.6/24 (#1)
7:30 p.m. – 60 Minutes: 12.1/19 (#1)
8:00 p.m. – 60 Minutes/The Amazing Race: 10.1/16 (#1)
8:30 p.m. – The Amazing Race: 6.7/10 (#2)
9:00 p.m. – The Amazing Race/Three Rivers: 6.6/10 (#3)
9:30 p.m. – Three Rivers: 4.9/ 7 (#3)
10:00 p.m. – Three Rivers/Cold Case: 6.3/10 (#3)
10:30 p.m. – Cold Case: 5.7/10 (#3)
ABC opened the evening with minimal interest for a half-hour portion of NASCAR at a last-place 3.1/ 5 in the overnights at 7 p.m. Next was an abbreviated version of America’s Funniest Home Videos (#3: 3.5/ 6 at 7:30 p.m.), followed by aging Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (#3: 5.9/ 9), Desperate Housewives (#2: 8.2/13) and Brothers & Sisters (#3: 6.3/10), which held 76 percent of the second-half of Desperate Housewives (8.3/13 at 9:30 p.m.). Although Emmy loves to nominate Rachel Griffiths for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama on Brothers & Sisters, it is Calista Flockhart who is more than worthy of being recognized this season.
Last in the overnights was Fox’s combination of relocated Brothers (#2t, 3.6/ 6), a new candidate in Mr. TV’s annual listing of TV turkeys, a 7:30 p.m. version of American Dad (#4: 2.6/ 4), which tanked without the lead-in support of Family Guy, an 8 p.m. installment of Family Guy (#4: 4.4/ 7), Family Guy special Seth & Alex s Almost Live Comedy Show (#4: 4.0/ 6 at 8:30 p.m.), the regularly scheduled edition of Family (#4: 4.6/ 7) and a 9:30 p.m. airing of The Cleveland Show (#3: 3.9/ 6).
