Does that include the 7m+ connected Sky households who are never counted in the iPlayer ratings updates?
Watched all six, loved it. And plus, i am not a fan of iplayer exclusive shows as it ruins the communal viewing experience which has already been greatly undermined by digital television.

I think they should have put the first episode of Car Share on iPlayer and no more. Will potentially hit the BBC1 ratings.

[quote=cylon6;77869578]Chefs On Trial is not a good performer for BBC2. It's a gift to other channels. Why did they make so many?
Good to see EastEnders up on Eastenders has been very consistent, even though it's been poor. |

Does it matter? Surely if folks are watching it that is what is important. The overnight ratings are going to be less and less relevant surely. I downloaded Car Share from Sky and watched it over a couple of nights. I've got Safe House sitting on sky plus waiting for all episodes to be broadcast. Never watch the two parters on either BBC or ITV until I can watch in one go.
I imagine more and more people are doing it this way nowadays. It's much better than having to watch stuff when the schedule dictates it. |

It looks like its going to be flop Tuesday on all channels if they carry on like last night.

Indeed. I watch nothing at its scheduled time anymore. A TV schedule is merely something I go through hitting ’Record’ on things I want to watch, then watching at my own convenience. Nothing gets watched until I have the whole series of it stacked up.

And what about live sport and events? Everyone watches LIVE tv regardless of what they say. The only news I see is of big stories (the Nepal earthquake for instance). I can get 99% of the news I want online. Apart from sport, I don't believe there is really event TV anymore. Even stuff like BGT, which seems to get called ’event TV’ on here, is exactly the kind of programme that should be watched away from its scheduled timeslot because of the adverts. |

And yet there's also a growing trend for people to interact via social media whilst watching tv - you can't do that if you're watching on catch-up.

Tuesday 12th May - Channel 5 21:00 - Big Brother: Live Launch Don't see the need for such secrecy - almost summer and I don't see ITV or C4 fielding anything too substantial against the launch - plus realistically it's not big enough these days to warrant any aggressive counter scheduling from rival channels. The celebrity version is another matter. |

The lack of shared viewing experience is already an issue. It's difficult to find a programme that anyone at work will have watched, let alone if you were watching a series stacked up that was on 6 weeks ago. |

I agree - its far too easy and glib to say I watch nothing live these days. I record loads and watch when its convenient but I still watch a hell of a lot of live stuff as well for all sorts of reasons.
I think it's sad that communal TV watching is declining. I love watching The Island with Bear Grylls for example, and then being able to talk about it in work the next day with other colleagues. A few of us watched and discussed Poldark as it aired too. Not really a fan of a whole series being put on iPlayer first like Car Share and hope it doesn't become the norm. Why are we so impatient? It's creating an impatient society, where we want something and we want it now! It's the same with downloading something illegally and not being able to wait until the channel shows it. I liked watching Broadchurch week by week, and the anticipation it created waiting for the next episode the following week. I enjoy stretching the enjoyment of my viewing experience, rather than having a viewing marathon and it's all over within a few hours. Each to their own, I'm sure I am in the minority. I just don't completely buy into the modern methods of watching TV. |

Indeed considering the obsession with displaying hashtags over the start of programmes, encouraging people to watch programmes on iplayer instead of live is at odds with this.
The lack of shared viewing experience is already an issue. It's difficult to find a programme that anyone at work will have watched, let alone if you were watching a series stacked up that was on 6 weeks ago. The reason for stacking up a series is so I can watch over a weekend, or watch 2 episodes back-to-back without being restricted by the traditional schedule. It's not my problem if the likes of ITV can't monetise that kind of viewing. It's becoming a bigger part of how people watch TV now, and there's no reason why it shouldn't be the norm in 5 years' time. The more the likes of Netflix release stuff in one go, the more people will expect their shows to be given to then like that. |
