Friday night’s ratings are currently sponsored by “ugh.” Specifically, that is what you may think upon seeing them. These are not good, no matter how you slice it. Some of this can be blamed on networks making questionable decisions; however, some of it can probably also be blamed on spring and/or NCAA Tournament football. Let’s […]
Is NBC ever going to learn that moving “The Blacklist” to Thursday nights was not the best move for the show’s ratings? We’re really not that sure, but for the umpteenth time this year, the Megan Boone – James Spader series is staring a new series low in the face. As a whole, this show […]
NBC is clearly trying to map out at this point the entirety of their summer lineup, and this includes giving us a few premiere dates we certainly have been waiting for. Let’s start here with “Last Comic Standing,” which is undergoing a slight makeover for the new season. Norm McDonald of “Saturday Night Live” fame […]
Well, so much for the notion that the lower ratings for “Criminal Minds” and “Law & Order: SVU” were entirely the fault of “Empire” being on the air. Blaming competition can at times be one of the biggest misnomers when talking about ratings for some of your favorite shows. We’d typically say that there is […]

The drama series set a new series high, averaging a 6.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic over the two hours. If you were […]
The ratings have come in for Tuesday night’s TV lineup, and it feels like by and large, there’s a lot to be fairly happy about at the moment. This is especially true if you are a viewer of The CW. After a decent amount of hype and a promotional campaign, “iZombie” premiered last night to […]
After everything that has happened over the past couple of weeks, we really have to say that we saw this one coming. While E! is not ending “Fashion Police” after some not-so-kind comments about the show from former star Kathy Griffin, they have decided that they are not nearly as interested in returning in March […]
Let’s face it: TV is not the same that it was a number of years ago. While live ratings are still extremely important, more and more people are setting their DVR now to record their favorite shows. This means that to a certain extent, these numbers have to be taken into consideration. They are not […]
