#7 isn't too bad considering it was Thanksgiving weekend in Canada - most Canadians were in a turkey coma by 8pm...

Given all of the confusion Sunday night in some local markets with NFL overruns, the final number is still 1.75 million higher than this week a year ago for TAR 15.

Where's the renewal notice?

tvbythenumbers has taken the first 4 weeks of the season and compared them to the 4 weeks of the start of last years.  The chart shows what shows have gained or lost in adults 18-49.

And guess what CBS show has the largest increase in adults 18-49 from the year ago?  Why that would be TAR.  And thats with 60 Minutes being down 10% versus last year.

Here is the link to the chart.

http://tvbythenumbers.com/2010/10/21/glee-dancing-modern-family-castle-lead-seasons-ratings-gainers-csiny-lie-to-me-house-lead-losers/69042

[theschnauzers]

mswood, I had cataract surgery on one eye this week, so georgiapeach grabbed the CBS release for me; but after the information you posted, I'll repeat what I said before -- "Where's the renewal notice?"

TAR continues to grow slowly but steadily on Sunday nights, although the net gain this most recent week is still jaw-dropping. I can't think of what is causing this increase over a year ago, but I'm certainly not going to complain. I also noticed that TAR's increase on the tvbythenumber's list is double that of Survivor.

Can't wait to see if we learn about about the upper income in the demo numbers; I have to think those are improved as well.

[mswood]

The income numbers have been released for one week this season (we rarely get them more then a couple times a year) and TAR was doing very well.  Best out of CBS Sunday night.

And yes its very odd that we have not had an official pickup.  With CBS officially picking up its new shows for a full 22 episode season, and with CBS having several shows filming currently for mid season Tvbythenumbers is listing the possibility that TAR (and or UB) wont have a spring cycle.

While its seems crazy to me, I have to remember the last time TAR got such strong ratings (season 12) and what happened there, no damn spring cycle.

I am forever hopeful that Peach knows a little more then she is telling.  Lets tickle it out of her!

[mswood]

Finals are out.
TAR
? THE Amazing Race 17 (8:17-9:17PM) scored a 6.7/10 with 11.42m viewers, 4.4/10 in adults 25-54 and 3.4/08 in adults 18-49.  In the 8:30-9:30PM hour, CBS was second in viewers, adults 25-54 and adults 18-49.  Compared to last week, THE Amazing Race 17 was up +6% in households (from 6.3/10), +2% in adults 25-54 (from 4.3/10) and added +480,000 viewers (from 10.94m, +4%).

We ranked 19th in adults 18-49, and 20th in total viewers.

[theschnauzers]

Here's the link to the CBS press release: http://www.cbspressexpress.com/div.php/cbs_entertainment/release?id=26511

We never did get any reliable preliminary overnights because of the quarter-hour NFL overrun Sunday.  But I did note yesterday that the numbers some places were reporting were, like last week, ahead of TAR 15 a year ago:

"The Amazing Race 15" (10.98 million viewers, #6; adults 18-49: 3.2, #8)

, an increase of almost a half-million total, and 0.2 in the 18-49 demo.

[mswood]

Well in meaningless total views after five episodes we are averaging more then all but seasons six, seventh and twelfth.  Not too bad for a show on it's 17th cycle.

The 3.4 in adults 18-49 is our season low, our season high to date is a 3.8
 
Season thirteens high by the fifth episode was a 3.4 withs it low being a 2.9
Season fourteens high by the fifth episode was a 3.1 with it's low being a 2.6
Season fifteens high by the fifth episode was a 3.4 with it's low being a 2.8
Season sixteens high by the fifth episode was a 3.2 with it's low being a 2.6

[Plaidmoon]

There have been a number of comments around here about this being among the best seasons so far. I agree, the locations and tasks have been good and the contestants have been interesting and generally nice people. It appears that the general viewing public agrees with us.

I couldn't more agree with that. And the team with a couple of mean comments (Katie and Rachel) aren't really that bad too. I'm glad that in the show's 17th cycle, we're able to just keep doing better than before.

No information about TAR's numbers from CBS this week, but http://tvbythenumbers.com/2010/11/02/sunday-finals-amazing-race-undercover-boss-adjusted-up-60-minutes-adjusted-down/70486 did provide this:

The Amazing Race
- 9.091 million viewers
- 5.3/9 HH
- 2.6/7 A18-49

I guess trying to battle a Bret Farve NFL game, and the World Series was a bit much.

Here's a summary of the ratings for TAR 17 season to date, as included by CBS in its press release announcing TAR 18's spring 2011 airing:

This Fall's installment of THE AMAZING RACE is posting across the board increases versus last Fall's edition, averaging 11.69 million viewers (+4%), 4.7 in adults 25-54 (+7%) and 3.8 in adults 18-49 (+9%). This season's finale will take place on Sunday, Dec. 12 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

I was actually surprised that CBS didn't classify all of Sunday as Special Programming (they can do this and do a few times each year, either on major holidays or against unusually strong competition) and thus be able to not count the results on their season averages that determine ad rates.

I was very surprised.

[TARAsia Fan]

TAR has been holding its own against the NFL and MLB. But it's nice that the World Series is over. TAR can go back to getting some 18-49 love.

[theschnauzers]

The 66 minute NFL overrun has the preliminary fast overnights in confusion, especially because CSI was not aired for those getting the CBS east coast feed.

TV By The Numbers, though indicated this, though for the 9 PM hour:

There was a 67 minute NFL overrun into CBS primetime, so the CBS time period ratings below cannot be relied upon for comparison purposes. Also, CSI Miami was pre-empted in the Eastern and Central time zones.

9:00  CBS    THE Amazing Race XVII    3.2    7    11.695
9:30  CBS    THE Amazing Race XVII    3.1    7    10.848

Haven't found a linkable source on the preliminary overnight numbers, but ir seems as if the numbers were almost as low as two weeks ago thanks to another NBC Sunday Night Football game involving the New England Patriots.

CBS did put out a press release confirming the dates of the season finales for both TAR 17 and Survivor 21, and included this little tidbit on the season-to-date numbers:

The current installment of THE AMAZING RACE has increased its ratings in comparison to last fall's edition, averaging 11.71 million viewers (+3%), 4.7 in adults 25-54 (+7%) and 3.7 in adults 18-49 (+3%).

So far nothing from CBS this afternoon about the final weekly numbers.

TV By The Numbers did report this as the final numbers for this past Sunday's episode (link):

The Amazing Race
- 10.338 million viewers
- 6.0/9 HH
- 2.8/7 A18-49

This didn't show up yesterday, but the only mention by CBS of TAR in the weekly ratings report is its placement in the top 30 shows of the week: (link)

The overnight numbers were a bit quirky with the 12 minute NFL overrun, but here's the info on this week's final numbers included as part of a press release where CBS claims victory in the November sweeps for the 10th year in a row.

Apparently Nielsen is a little slow because of the holiday weekend. Finals for the week, and for Thursday, Friday and Sunday aren't available yet; and one source I checked stated those might be out late Tuesday. I didn't post the preliminary overnights because there was very little information on those, as well and there were overruns of different length in some East Coast feed markets.
