M E O W= might need to get a DVR from its cable company because Mcdonalds might move it to evening shift,and will ask cable guy to block the old people channel CBS off the DVR!
Dumbing down of America continues. Hopefully the ratings are due to re-runs. Everyone get putside and enjoy the summer!!!!
I'm happy to avoid the awful reality shows on the networks - Breakout Kings season finale on A&E was excellent - I hope that show gets renewed - looking forward to the return of The Glades on Sunday next week on A&E. And how about the PBS National Memorial Day Concert on Sunday? That was most excellent. Thank you to everyone who has served in the military and is serving in the military now. Thank you!
If 18-49 ratings are measured for advertiser purposers, I don't get why we, the general public, have to suffer reading those trite digits. Households, Total Viewers. Gimmie the classic #'s. 18-49 just looks dismal & pathetic.
ericthemidget = was over last night giving me a **** ****
@Liz
I thought you were instructed by "Preta" to only run stats on Viewers and Households and to forget about your preoccupation with the 18-49 demo--except to simply recap the leader in any given time-block.
BTW where's Sophie been?
@TweetyBird: Good use of "instructed by 'Preta'". Yees that is exactly how zap2itch run things oer there. A pyramid schematic with Preta att the top. (She fired Hahn btw.) haha lol purr sad thin. Noww back to Yosemita.
