EE's highest rating for a long time. I hope we continue to see a rise now every week. I think we could see 7m at christmas then and maybe 8m at New Year with the wedding.

The BBC drama at 8.30 must be pretty low.

Idol struggled to find stars too. It had some initial success and some are still going well but it became harder and harder for them. XFUSA have 5th Harmony but I don't think they broke anyone else.
My point re SCD was more that IAC did revive some careers like Peter Andre whereas it doesn't seem to do that for their contestants. Again, maybe that's the era we are now in as Dixon did well from it and Gough certainly has. I suspect the public just done with this sort of thing now. The shows are now more for the moment but aren't likely to create a new Jade or Nasty Nick. |

I think that it will be interesting to see the rating for Panorama last night. It felt right to be at 7.30pm rather than at 8.30pm. I know that it was still up against Corrie but it does open up that 8.30pm slot for longer drama or maybe even a pre-watershed comedy ?

Big programmes bring in big ratings and don't need massive lead-ins. Silent Witness on Mondays follows Panorama, which gets 2m, and does well. Back in 2009 look at the jump from All Star Family Fortunes to X Factor. X Factor is in the heart of the schedule but puts less bums on seats for ITV for what comes after it. The 8pm hour tends to have more viewers than the 7pm hour, X Factor has the best timeslot on the night on paper.
Doctor Who was a big deal back then. 13m for Christmas specials in 2007 & 2008. The David Tennant/Catherine Tate series was massive. Matt Smith's ratings were good as well 10m for his debut, 12m for A Christmas Carol. Doctor Who's sporadic appearances hurt it along with Capaldi's Doctor in my opinion but that's another story. Yep that argument was daft yesterday. I thought Capaldi would be great for Who. The Comic Vine podcast guys (in America obviously where podcasts are a big thing) blame Moffat for th show's problems. |

Children In Need Rocks For Terry is on next Monday at 8.30. Up against Corrie and I'm A Celebrity, it'll be interesting to see how it does. About 3m I predict, but can't decide if it'll be just above or just below.

It certainly helped Kara Tointon and Jill Halfpenny who got theatre gig's after it, it raised Susanna Reid's profile which saw her go to ITV partly because of it. Natasha Kaplinsky got a few extra gig's out of it too. |

That's not very exciting.
Anyway its the christmas special when is that ever exciting? sandwiched between an hour of superheroes on Doctor Who and Babies being born on Call the midlife the last thing we probably need is anything too dramatic ![]() ![]()

Peter Andre's career has mainly been revived because ITV keep him in the public eye, as he keeps turning up on Loose Women every other week, or This Morning. Peter Andre is one of those celebs who would turn up to the opening of an envolope.
ITV's obsession with ITV Be 'talent' is a problem for its brand. However, ITV knows that an important demographic is wooed by this sort of thing. ITV2 still feeds off it. |

I'd like to think you were joking, but you probably aren't.
This thread would do just fine without X Factor discussion. everyone back then was proclaiming the soap dead. |

13m in 2008 to 4m in 2015 is nearly a 10m drop in 7 years which percentage wise is even bigger than .......

Didn't matter for Idol or Fox as the ratings were massive. It's a TV show and its primary job is to get viewers for the channel that it's on. That's what The Voice does for NBC and did for a period on BBC1. XFUSA found a success and bombed in the ratings. Musical success is meaningless for a TV programme. If this was a record sales thread then you could make a case.
Not sure Strictly ever really boosted careers as most had successful ones going in. It certainly helped Kara Tointon and Jill Halfpenny who got theatre gig's after it, it raised Susanna Reid's profile which saw her go to ITV partly because of it. Natasha Kaplinsky got a few extra gig's out of it too. It probably helps to encourage people to audition for these shows if they see it making a difference still. But ratings are obviously what it is all about and the on-screen product is the ultimate driver of them. |

3 FOX - 09:00 PM The Walking Dead 653k 3.2% There has been a notable slowing of the pace the last two weeks, but I thought this was a fairly strong episode nonetheless. It was also nice to see them supporting their sister channel strongly with lots of nice looking promotional stuff for Mars on Nat Geo this Sunday in and around TWD. |

Creating music acts helps the show though. Idol validated itself in the early years off the back of Clarkson, Fantasia and Underwood. Those people then become walking adverts for Idol and it becomes a virtuous circle. XF has dined out on 1D for years. Yes ratings are all that matters but SuBo going on to smash America was a huge boost to the BGT brand.
It probably helps to encourage people to audition for these shows if they see it making a difference still. But ratings are obviously what it is all about and the on-screen product is the ultimate driver of them. There will always be contestants for these series and some return multiple times. What Syco want from these shows is different to what ITV wants from these shows. Wouldn't matter to viewers or ITV if BGT didn't fund a big act, and they haven't most years, as long as the programme is good and popular. Which brings us back to The Voice on NBC. |
