TUF premiere lower rated EVA

[Liquidrob]

947,000 for the first show of TUF

Last years was 1.3 million

Must have been reruns of Golden Girls on lifetime or something, damn them!

Do we have the quote yet with the excuse?

[Jmiles]

Friday night was by far the worst decision ever. It was nice to flip to TUF on Wednesday nights right after survivor! Now I watch the first 10 minutes and continue to go out like a normal human being.

If FX insists on Friday night for the next season, UFC may as well put a couple curtain jerkers as coaches.

Doesn't the WWE draw on Friday?

The its Friday is just another excuse

If you believe WWE, all of their programming outdraws every other show in the history of the modern world.

But, among first run cable programming, Smackdown last week was #1 with a 0.8 rating among adults 18-49. If you count reruns, it was 5th behind Family Guy episodes, Robot Chicken and American Dad.

Smackdown (8-10pm) had 2.7M viewers and that 0.8 rating in the 18-49. TUF (9-11pm) had 947k viewers and a 0.5 rating in the 18-49 demo.

If you wanna know something funny...among the top cable TV shows last Friday night:

-TUF had 947,000 viewers.
-The random FX Movie following TUF grew to 993,000 viewers (and maintained the 0.5 in the 18-49 adults demo)
-Fucking serious. A 'My Wife and Kids' rerun at 3:58AM drew 969,000 viewers and a 0.4...
-A 1:45am airing of George Lopez's old sitcom drew 976,000 with a 0.4....

The top 3 shows that drew less live viewers than TUF (947k) among the top 18-49 adults shows:
-Discovery Channel's show on the Bering Sea Gold at 11pm (853,000)
-After Midnight Sportscenter on ESPN (919,000)
-Around the Horn on ESPN at 5pm (771,000)
-The 3:24am airing of My Wife&Kids (919,000)
-5am episode of Yes Dear (910,000)
etc.


FX loves talking about the 18-49 demo, mainly because the overall viewer numbers aren't good.

[Liquidrob]

Nothing on Spike was among the top 100 cable shows Friday.

More people viewed this thread than TUF premiere. Time to cancel.

[Liquidrob]

2nd show down to 872k

I was actually able to watch it Friday night. It wasn't too bad, still a terrible time for the show to air. Fight was nothing spectacular, about what you would expect from a TUF show.

The show is not going anywhere though, so quit your bitching.
