It's brilliant how its ratings have grown in the last few years. I read last week that another series has be commissioned for next year, which is no surprise.
I think a problem is that there's not many films that would get 4m+. There's the Harry Potter and James Bond franchises.

I think maybe to have Corrie on for six months at 8.30 and then a film/drama/reality show in this slot for the other six. AIRC the 8.30 Monday episode was only supposed to be a temporary measure but has become permanent.
As for Marco, I think the show caught food poisoning and died.
I can see the logic behind the LRTC decision - if the writer didn't want to commit to more, and the cast were as nervous about continuing without him as appears to be the case, then winding it up makes sense. At least in artistic terms, if not in ratings terms.
To be honest, I wouldn't be particularly optimistic about getting anything to replace it at all, though. The budget very much looks like its focussed on 9pm drama - and it'll be all too easy for the BBC to plug the gap by shifting AR and Countryfile an hour later. They could then get away with a narrative repeat at 6pm sadly. A shame though - Sundays are a valuable opportunity for pre-watershed stuff that are mostly wasted, in my opinion.

As an aside just posted this in another thread:

Its the tv schedule for Royal Wedding week 1981. I think the Saturday Night Fever showing was a premiere. Take a look at BBC1 on Monday-that peculiar evening start at 6.50 must have caused immense damage to BBC1 over those years-not just on Mondays. And Emmerdale Farm in daytime too.

Hi folks,
I'm Mike and apparently I'm the new forum host (it seemed like a good idea after a night on the Guinness). I'm just popping to say hi and introduce myself.
What is a forum host? Er...we're not too sure yet. It's a pilot scheme. My main role is to look after the housekeeping (splits and merges), welcome newbies, look out for any trends etc. I've got no "superpowers" - basically I'm the same as all other posters apart from having a direct line to the forum managers. I've also have no mod privileges.
Anyway, any ideas that you may have please give me a shout. Either PM me or post on the Guide for Newbies thread.

Not entirely. There are certain arguments regarding disposable income and brand loyalty. But particularly with disposable income, advertisers would just target ABC1's.
The reason that 16-34's are valuable is because they're harder to come by. We can see that in the demographics. People think of X Factor as a young show yet its median age is in line with the UK median age. It's only young relative to other things on TV which skew old.
The median age in the USA is 37 years old. The median age of a viewer to the broadcast networks is 51 and rising.
Some ITV1 drama consolidated ratings from last week (inc HD):
Wild at Heart - 8.69m
Midsomer Murders - 6.93m (inc +1: 7.07m)
Kidnap & Ransom - 6.50m (6.67m)
Primeval - 4.45m
Taggart - 3.60m (3.91m)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I've posted both the excluding +1 and including +1 numbers to suit whatever you prefer, so take your pick.
Anyway, that's Wild at Heart's best rating since 2007. Midsomer Murders got its second best rating since 2008 (or best if you prefer to include +1 figures). Primeval's timeshift of 0.71m was its smallest so far this series. Taggart timeshifted about 1m, which is good, but sub-4m probably isn't good enough for what ITV are looking for.

Extraordinary news really, despite the rise of Maddow and more recently Lawrence O'Donnell I think it is fair to say Olberman was the heart and soul of MSNBC's prime time schedule.
Fascinating to see whether O'Donnell can be successful at 8pm following a short but well rating stint in the 10pm hour.
Certainly I think this news means that a good week for CNN just got even better, now if only they had a competitive offering at 8pm to capitalise on what may be a shaky few weeks for MSNBC.
Incidentally Comcast have today denied any involved in Olberman's departure,
Quote:
“Comcast has not closed the transaction for NBC Universal and has no operational control at any of its properties including MSNBC. We pledged from the day the deal was announced that we would not interfere with NBC Universal’s news operations. We have not and we will not”

Did Five drop The Mentalist repeats? The lineup of CSI and NCIS did well indeed. IRT performed well as usual.

Tyler & Lopez have been well received. But it's clear that they haven't got a "breakout" star in the way that Cowell was back in 2002 or Cheryl was for XF in 2008. Notably, while Cheryl appealed to a younger audience, Idol is skewing older this year. Equally, there's nothing to suggest that Idol's declines are going to be totally disasterous - at least not this season.
I think it's a fair bet that X Factor has peaked in the UK (admittedly this is the third year that I've said that).”

I think either way TXF may suffer this year. If Cowell quits it clearly will - but if he doesn't he'll be compromising the idea behind the show by splitting himself with the US, and we all know where his priorities are (odds on he'll get the contestants muddled up!).

Not sure of the history of The Chase, but ITV bought 12 Yards a couple of years back who have a very good reputation for game shows, so I suspect they had a hand in it.

Not true at all - daytime is big business globally and Deal or No Deal took off around the world as a daytime format. As a daytime format The Chase is incredibly marketable - but as a primetime format it is nowhere near as attractive IMO.

Excluding Big Brother and other one-off shows, if they maintain that figure throughout the series it surely has to be one of C4's most successful "series" since the early days of Wife Swap, which IIRC (which I probably don't!) did hit around 6m.

Well with the budget slash it's no surprise when Antiques Roadshow can perform just as well at a fraction of the price - and we're going to see more and more of that from the BBC in the years to come.
I also think the show didn't make enough noise to make it worth keeping - it just quietly went about it's business, rather successfully, while the rest of the nation didn't notice.

The BBC of course though would argue it's about serving the demos of licence fee payers - though of course in truth the headline figure is more important to them. The BBC is always screwed though ratings wise though whichever way you look at it.
Would be great though if BARB made the 16-34 figures especially more widely available - it's quite fascinating how they tell a completely different story for so many programmes.

Some impressive figures there. The huge timeshift for Taggart really suggests it's in the wrong slot. Fantastic for both Midsomer and WAH to get their highest figures in years.
Thursday 20th January demographic info: http://i55.tinypic.com/nfjj9l.jpg
- 10 O'Clock Live was #1 in its slot with 16-34s. It was #2 in its slot among 18-49s and ABC1s, beating ITV1.
- BBC News at Ten seems to skew younger than ITV News at Ten, and also has a much more upmarket audience.
- BBC1 comfortably beat ITV1 in the 9pm hour among 18-49s.
- Kidnap & Ransom mostly lost its audience week-on-week among people aged 55+. For people aged between 16-55 it was down 9% week-on-week but among 55+ it dropped 22%.

I haven't got the Tue/Wed ratings, but on Thursday the Andy Murray match averaged: 261k (4.8%).
If I get the other ratings, I'll post them on here. Same for your Top Gear request.

Thanks.
Seems like Murray (and Tennis in general?) only draws if:
a) its Wimbledon
b) Murray's really near to actually winning something
Anything other and normal viewers won't care.

No. The Mentalist aired as usual at 9pm.
It is not clear whether DS made a mistake and the 1.5m reported was actually for The Mentalist (R) - or if in fact the 1.5m was for CSI (R) as stated in the 10pm hour. NCIS (R) followed at 10:55pm.
Either way, their US drama repeats are performing extremely well, almost as well as new episodes in some cases!
How do people think the British Comedy Awards will do tonight?
Has anyone got a record of how it used to do on ITV?

Well, it was up 50% on the 60k it recorded earlier in the week.
But then 50% of virtually nothing is not a lot.
It makes me cross that the Sunset Beach repeats back in 04/05 got pulled after six months when they were rating above 100k on a regular basis and coming third in their slot on occasion.

I understand that advertisers want 16-34s because they watch TV less than other ages and are thus harder to find but they dont really have a high level of disposable income so advertising to people with little money doesnt sound perfect. I know Shameless attracts a high amount of 16-34 viewers but there are relatively few ABC1s. I think the 18-49 demo is a lot more interesting and probably gives a better reflection of the value of an audience to advertisers. Its good to see these demo groups in Rzt's figures.

its also because younger viewers have less established brand preferences and are more willing to try new products
also they make a lot of high spend 1st time purchases eg. 1st mortgage or 1st new car.
Quick Aussie Ratings Update-
Neighbours fell to a new low following its move to Eleven - 225,000 watched Friday's episode. It was the 3rd most watched digital programme. Fridays are always low rating for it though so not a surprise that it would dip on that day and not much of a concern at this stage.
Meanwhile, yet another Oprah special brought in 1.24m and topped the day. Nine's cricket beat Seven's tennis by at least 2:1.

Not that I really follow this Aussie stuff but it seems hard to believe that 20 million once tuned into Neighbours here. Young and old alike-I can remember even Brian Johnson on Test Match Special used to bang on about it. Talk about capturing a moment, Neighbours certainly did that.
