It's good to read that Elementary is continuing to do well in the ratings despite having a new series as its lead in. Apparently Angel From Hell is a hit.

It's pretty good and pretty humorous. And I still love Elementary (even if all my predictions have been incorrect, lol).

It's nice to see that Elementary is still holding steady despite the fact that AFH tanked pretty quickly and it had a rerun as a lead in, and How To Get Away With Murder returned (though HTGAWM came in #3 in the time slot in the Fast Overnights, which is quite a shock). In fact, Elementary was #1 in viewership in its time slot.

And once again Elementary was #1 in its timeslot, though it bested #2 by 700,000 viewers in the Fast Overnights. But a good reason for the dip is probably that How To Get Away With Murder ran its season finale...

And much to my horror they are moving it to Sunday night. I could just cry,  [snow_cry] [easter_cry] lol.

I hope that's not because you won't be able to watch it anymore. Although, if getting the DVDs isn't in play, you could hopefully catch what you might miss during rerun season...

For me it's moving from being opposite one show that I like (How To Get Away With Murder) to being opposite another show that I like (Quantico). But that's why the DVR was invented.  [b003]

Sunday nights on CBS always seem to get extended by sports games and usually messes up the timing sequence for recording - if I even remember to look to see if games are on. I'd rather watch it on demand than having it cut into three segments. That's the biggest part of it, anyway. And then there's the inevitable consequences of moving a show around, like losing viewers and getting cancelled.  [easter_angry]
Title: Re: Elementary
Post by: Mysterious Benefactor on March 13, 2016, 04:28:53 AM
Because it's done so well so far this season, it would have to do absolutely dreadfully on Sunday to get canceled. But of course, CBS hopes it will do even better on Sunday (which is often the night when the most people watch TV) and help their Sunday ratings.

I suppose we shall see what happens. Though the first hint won't come until the 21st after the first Sunday ep has run...

Upon moving to Sunday, not only did Elementary hold onto its Thursdays' viewership numbers, it retained its 1st place finish in its timeslot (despite being delayed more than 30 minutes in the ET/CT time periods), and it did so by besting #2 by 2.1 million viewers in the Fast Overnights.

 [pointing-up]  Excellent news, dom - thanks so much for sharing it!  [easter_smiley]  But no shock there - especially after it did so well this past Sunday.  [wink2]

I've been so busy that I haven't had the chance to check out any entertainment news today. It'll be very interesting once I get to see what the renewal articles are saying...

JLM is certainly keeping up the good work - he seemed especially good last night. There is a two hour episode coming up in two weeks, I believe, that I am really looking forward to. I loved him in Shadows12. Did he have any cut scenes that showed up on the DVD?

And he's on board for Trainspotting II.

Well, I guess the headline says it all:

Ratings: Elementary, Game Night Only Shows to Hold Steady on Easter (http://tvline.com/2016/03/28/elementary-season-4-ratings-easter-sunday/)

And it's interesting that both those shows are on opposite each other. Though Elementary, which was once again #1 in its time period, bested #2 by 1.9 million viewers in the Fast Overnights, which was slightly less than last week - but it's still more that it was besting #2 on Thursdays.

When next season's schedule comes out (usually sometime in May), it'll be interesting to see ifElementary stays on Sunday, moves back to Thursday, or possibly even gets put somewhere else...

And ratings-wise Elementary continues to do well on Sunday. Its 9pm showing wasn't #1 in its time period (because NBC threw a new Little Big Shots against it), but according to the article I read it was on a par with what The Good Wife does in the period (and even better than what Elementary has been doing at 10), and its 10pm showing remained #1 in its time period, besting #2 by 1.3 million viewers in the Fast Overnights.

I would have preferred another night for the same reason that you don't like Sundays: never knowing how long it might be delayed or if it'll even be on when football or golf run long. But I suppose CBS' thinking is that it does as well on Sundays as it did on Thursdays, and considering they've often had problems with Sundays at 10et/9ct, Elementary seems like a good fit for them there.
