Why axe something that consolidates to 9 million? It's ridiculous! |

1.4m for a repeat of MOTD at half 7 in the morning is a great figure, didn't realise it rated that highly. Pretty poor rating for "From Darkness", got what it deserved.
Living with my mum at the moment for the first time in four years, she watched X factor. Her and her boyfriend were watching it when I came home from the pub last night so I decided to see for myself what it was like, baring in mind I haven't watched a whole episode in five years. Personally thought it was absolute dross and dragged out far too much. Recaps of the night before are needed but do they really need that long of a recap? The live aspect of the show was just a complete waste of time, the live audience didn't really get to see much. Also does every contestant have to have a sob story? |

Poor for X Factor for sure. But the worrying thing is not the overall rating imo, but two other things:
1. The fact that this weekend was awful IMO. And I didn't catch all of it. I watched clips on YouTube for last night, and for Saturday, I wasn't in and caught up yesterday morning in around 40 mins out of the 2h 20 mins it was actually on for. I showed my negativity about SCC, but the JH Live was even worse. I honestly don't think we will see more than a million viewers coming back for the live shows. I think the Live Shows will rate between 7.0-7.5m, no more. And the final of around 8m. If social media reflected rating drop offs (which it isn't), then X Factor would be under 4m next week. Over half of the tweets I read last night were "I am never watching this show ever again". But people doing that never reflects ratings decreases. I can't count the amount of times people said that during X Factor 2009 with Jedward. The show was getting 13m+ overnights as they were still in there! That's over double last nights show! Results 5 and 6 got 15.00m and 15.02m officially ![]() 2. The rating it got during the clash with Strictly was shocking. Forget the actual overall ratings, but this is what they got during the 7:30pm-8pm clash: Strictly- 8.79m Vs X Factor- 4.91m. That is a sore sight for ITV surely. |

Yes concentrate on the lower overnights and often ignore the respectable consolidated figures to cause controversy that's how it's done.

The MTV music awards seem to be struggling both here and the USA. Last night's awards were broadcast on 10 channels (All 8 MTV channels. VH1, C5) presumably to mop up as many viewers as possible.
They did this in the US a few months ago, airing the MTV VMAs on a whole host of channels including Comedy Central, but it didn't really help.. http://variety.com/2015/music/news/v...tv-1201581910/ It wasn't a bad show per se, but not must-see by any stretch. And the awards themselves are just pointless, because it's obvious who the winners will be based on who's there. They are probably guilty of being too tame as well. Back in the day there used to be plenty of controversial moments which in this day and age would work really well in terms of drumming up social media interest. |

Then when you point this out you get accused of all sorts X Factor gets respectable consolidated ratings which are also down on last year, same as Doctor Who. These are true facts. |

It's safe to say yesterday's rating won't beat that. They used to talk about the overnight ratings as well.
Excellent for Strictly once again and a poor launch for Jekyll and Hyde but not completely disastrous, if it's holda or even grows as it moves later it may get another shot, it feels a little bit like the reverse of what happened with the musketeers, where they seemed to want to go a bit lighter and robin hood esque, but then made changes for the later slot, here it seems Higson wanted to go much darker and violent but ITV wouldn't let them |

I think only the final will beat it now, can't see the lives increasing it much, if anything, it seems like it might be on a downward live trajectory (I wonder why this seems to uniquelu affect singing shows)

Jekyll and Hyde kept its audience across the hour. That's one positive. The rating looks to me that some people weren't interested in it at all. The week two rating will tell us more.

Overnights still contribute to the majority of the consolidated rating for many shows.
They don't get ignored around here. If they are higher or lower compared to previous years it will be pointed out. X Factor gets respectable consolidated ratings which are also down on last year, same as Doctor Who. These are true facts. There seems to be little acknowledgement of even when a show is down yoy it still produces good figures by today's standards. |

No numbers given though. How much higher than average? I've asked Overnights.tv on Twitter.
What's normally in that slot? News then LE? From Broadcast: "However, despite being billed as a family drama, Jekyll and Hyde did not entertain a young audience, according to Barb data provided by overnights.tv. Some 66.2% of its audience was aged over 45." That doesn't help us much with the 16-34 skew. Overall J&H was just two share points above slot average - that's terrible. |

Quite a few people have said that XF is still doing well by general TV standards. It's just performing poorly in relation to how it has in the past and not all of it has been a natural inevitable decline. Unsuccessful tinkering hasn't helped.

One of the reasons why people go on about X Factor is because Simon says things like Strictly with Peter Andre won't be a bigger draw than X Factor. Say stuff like that and people will love to point it out. There is also several years of resentment about how arrogant some people on the show were about their ratings compared to Strictly, because of that the knives are out. However as X Factor can still get decent ratings in consolidated people wanting the axe to fall don't get the satisfaction.
It's all very complicated! |

Last weekend's X Factor was a mess. Dragged-out nonsense. |

People call X Factor dragged out but forget that it was the same length as Strictly's early shows when ads are taken out.

Strictly by contrast seems to go from strength to strength. The format still feels as fresh as ever, and there hasn't been any serious tinkering in the last six years other than Darcey replacing Alesha and Claudia moved in as host. Even then Strictly viewers were familiar with both, Claudia hosted the sister show and Darcey had deputised as a judge.
Last weekend's X Factor was a mess. Dragged-out nonsense. I'm not saying your post represents this, i'm just saying theres always a million excuses in this thread and they alway's change depending on how things rate and which broadcaster/ people are involved. People complain every year about IAC being old and stale, yet it still rates cosiderably well, and like Strictly, it's been the same format since it launched, and they're both the same age. |

The big multichannel hitters on Sunday were Premier League football (Sunderland v Newcastle: 0.93m/11.3%, United v City: 1.95m/18.0%, Liverpool v Southampton: 1.26m/7.0%) and ITV2's rerun of Back to the Future Day (BTTF1: 0.50m/4.4%, BTTF2: 0.77m/4.3%, BTTF3: 0.99m/4.0%).
Oh, and the F1. (0.98m/4.3%) www.itvmedia.co.uk |
