Looking at zeebox, and not at the ordering as a whole but at individual programmes, looking at The Magicians popularity graph, looks like there was a bit of a boost about 18:55, with it staying fairly steady after that.

how anyone can watch such trash is so far beyond me, you might as well ask me to understand why the Sky is blue, or to explain the female mind. |

Zeebox is suggesting Take Me Out is massively well ahead of the lotto quiz right now. But then, if it's measuring tweets etc, then surely bitching etc about the contestants on TMO is more likely than commenting on Who Dares Wins questions?
I guess TMO skews massively young anyway. |

you are the one that is obsessed with reducing ITVs ratings rather than maximising the BBCs.

ITV do a good enough job of that themsleves. They well and truly pissed away a Harry Potter premiere, desperately trying to dent Eastenders and Sherlock, I hope the sub 4m rating was worth it.
This will be remembered as the Christmas when Downton won the Day but also the one where the BBC ran Eastenders every night in order to try to shore up their evening schedule with diminishing payback |

After my experiment yesterday I don't think Zeebox will be good for measuring audience levels for programme versus programme, but could be good for telling you if programmes audiences increase or decrease throughout transmission (like the case in hand with The Magicians).

Hard to avoid Eastenders when it ran for about 13 days in a row with 70 or 80 minutes per night

Besides even if Downton was the clear winner it was only the one slot ITV won, not the entire day. |

Downton won the first airing, Eastenders won the night

The Magicians revamp is interesting. Makes it all a bit "Strictly Come Magic". Not sure I'm exactly sold on it, but at least BBC1 is making an effort against a poor ITV1 line-up which if there is any justice in the world will be crushed from start to finish.

I guess you could say, that to an extent, Twitter can be a slight indicator of what's popular with a tighter demographic like 16-34s.
That is until Sunday when DOI gets 20 times the number of tweets as Countryfile and 20 times the number of viewers.

Something that I doubt will be repeated anytime soon, ITV1 won all 5 nights in the 9pm slot this week.
The average rating at 9pm was 3.9m on BBC1 and 4.7m on ITV1* *This takes the full programme average for Endeavour and Mamma Mia, even though they were on 2 hours, so the ITV1 figure will be slightly different. |

The Talent Show Story is quite a nice little programme for those of us in this thread who are obviously interested in the TV industry.
It's funs seeing clips of Popstars showing how it all began, how low key it all was, and how Simon Cowell apparantly turned it down. There are also appearances by the various TV execs of the time and talk about ratings. Glenn will like it as well as Opportunity Knocks and New Faces will also be covered. I'd forgotten that before Popstars pretty much the only talent shows on air were 'Search for a Star' and Jonathan Ross's 'Big Big Talent Show'

This will be remembered as the Christmas when Downton won the Day but also the one where the BBC ran Eastenders every night in order to try to shore up their evening schedule with diminishing payback Given that Coro St, EmFm and EE all run extra episodes on Christmas Day now as a matter of course, BBC1 actually aired one additonal episode of EE, the one on Christmas Eve. Not strictly necessary, but you could argue it helped Outnumbered achieve its highest ever rating of 8.5m (surpassing many established shows in the 2011 ratings) and Lapland attract 7m for a one off drama. They then aired a bonus 70 minute episode of EE on NYD, which helped Sherlock get what will be a 9-10m official rating. They couldn't, of course, have aired that 70 min episode on the Monday because ITV has wrapped EmFm and Coro St round every episode of EE like poison ivy. Indeed, there are so few clear slots left in the schedule now ITV has littered episodes of EmFm and Coro around the place like landmines, that it's increasingly difficult for BBC1 to launch anything new these days... |

Fawlty Towers is trending on Twitter. I bet nobody expected that!
Take Me Out: The Gossip on ITV2 is also trending. |

You don't half talk rubbish at times. 70 or 80 minutes per night? Bit rich when your employers block the schedule with their trademark soapathons - 90 mins every Monday, Thursday and Friday, strangling the prospects of anything else, and a miserable Christmas Night containing 2 hours of ordinary pleb soap plus a special bonus 2 hours of period toff soap.

At least BBC1 hasn't resorted to filling an hour of prime time Saturday night with the sort of filler "infomentary" about talent shows that you'd once have expected them to use to fill the difficult Tuesday/Thursday slot opposite Eastenders....

Good to see a new face on BBC primetime - and he's an improvement on Lenny, but adding a public vote to a show already trivialised by using celebrities makes it even more frustrating this format took off whilst Penn and Teller: Fool Us didn't.

Those were the days when there was a point to that channel. |
