Interesting list. At first, I thought the list was only tracking cable networks but digital channels such as ME TV and Cozi TV were included ( love ME TV and glad it is doing so well.)  So unfortunately , Decades really needs to get affiliates back and more eyeballs because like ratings, it's hard to argue with these numbers. I have a feeling like Midnight Texas, this isn't going to end well for Decades.

Just watched David's episode. While I was never crazy about the series, It was fun seeing him in a major role. David played a college writing teacher who was coaching Willie on his script writing and started dating his sister Nancy. When David got critical and snarky over both the script quality and his abilities, it devastated Willie enough to want to give up writing and cause friction that Nancy didn't want to see him anymore. At the conclusion, turns out David's character was actually projecting his own failure as a playwright and after explaining things to Willie, Nancy decided to go out with him again. David looked quite comfortable in the role and almost looked like he just walked off the set of Night of Dark Shadows - plus he got to smooch with Meredith Baxter. [santa_thumb]

Not to keep beating a dead horse...but to put it in perspective. If a baseball players batting average is .100 and he gets it up to .137, that's a 37% increase - but it still stinks. Had there been real sizeable audience increases, the demo would have moved to .5 or better. Also keep in mind, Season 1 average demo was .7 and even then, it barely got a renewal. Don't get me wrong,  I really like Midnight Texas and would love to see a season 3 but the numbers were terrible no matter how much spin is put on it.

No, while the total audience number fluctuated somewhat (apparantly there is a small audience range between each tenth of a point)  the actual rating never budged. It was .4 for 8 straight weeks both at 8pm and 9pm. Really bad. Hawaii Five-0 was typically twice that.

It really is a shame that the NBC Dark Shadows time slot claimed another victim. The ratings were identical 8 weeks in a row. Normally that is a good thing - or a pretty good thing, but they were really awful. The hoped for +7 ratings boost didn't materialize. The only week of +7 I saw showed some increase- but so did every other non sports show increase by an equal or greater amount. About the only big 3 network show Midnight ended up beating was Alex Baldwin. I do give NBC some cudos for giving it a 2nd season shot - but it really belongs on cable such as HBO where it's sister show True Blood flourished. I do hope it gets shopped somewhere. As for the timing, Merry Christmas to you too NBC [santa_angry]

Carry her to the RT room and hope he can swap out Julia's.
