While Jody probably brought in more viewers, a jump this high in viewers was probably more to a better time slot and more advertising

Well sure, Jody fans are probably a significant portion of that, but a few of the other teams bring a pre-established fan base, too. And with it being on a much better night of the week.

But sure. Thanks for the much-needed boost, Jody fans!

Out of school week, and the hour would be my guess. Will be interesting to see how next week goes.

Time slot definitely is a factor.. but why did they get that time slot? Because they knew they could parlay the Jess and Cody/Big brother fan base into more viewers... so even just getting the time slot was thanks to them.

And the more advertising... like 80% of CBS’ promotion has been of Jess and Cody.. they even had a CBS social employee with them all last night filming them watching the episode... and team Indy was there as well and they didn’t have any cbs rep with them ...

Here's what I think. The Hour first, plus the fact that school was still out.

That it was an open start with a batch of people wanting to watch themselves.

The fan base of EACH team with some celebrity.

Am sure Jody's fan base helped. But not the only factor in play.
