So RadioTimes have done a top 30 of 2016 for TV shows, with their top 5 being:
1. The Night Manager 2. Line of Duty 3. Happy Valley 4. Fleabag 5. War & Peace I thought it would be fun if we all did a top 5 on the ratings thread. My top five would be: 1. The Night Manager 2. Game of Thrones 3. Victoria 4. The Durrells 5. Happy Valley The Man In The High Castle Flash Daredevil Vikings Fortitude Not finished them yet but Crown, Lucifer, Luke Cage (Jessica Jones was good) and Last Kingdom are others off the top of my head. Non drama, Real Marigold Hotel and Barbarians Rising deserve a mention. |

As Lewis says, best to do that at the end of the year. Who knows what the next few days will bring.

Thanks. Was it on a trailer on its own? Or was it with other animations?

Have we ever done a ratings thread awards type thing for best of the best, biggest flop, etc.? Might be a nice idea to announce the results on NYE or something.

From ITV Media:

Its ratings are still looking a bit weak, though solid. I'm still yet to tune in fully as a viewer again. So I hope 2017 can start with abang and some fresh storylines and writing. Emmerdale is heading towards Christmas as the strongest looking soap. I hope on Christmas Day it can give Doctor Who a run for its money and win its slot. It looks like they might be having an excellent episode on Christmas Day. The Chase is now its repeats. It is now experiencing the same position Pointless was in only last year, where by repeats do not affect its rating. ITV must be over the moon, and have seen what happens when they keep The Chase at 5pm. It has had time to match Pointless, and now overtake it. 27% is superb, particuarly as it doesn't have a massive news lead in. Viewers are so conditioned into watching a quize show at 5pm, it will take a while for them to stop watching. Only last year ITV replaced The Chase with a rpt of the Text Santa special only a day or so after, and it boosted Pointless to 4m (29%). Then they showed a rpt of ASM&M which bombed, and Pointless again got a boost. Perhaps they'lll learn from their mistakes. on the multi-channels, the BBC4 doc did well, and its nice to see an orginal ITV3 commission make the top10. |

I think it's also good to explain the choices on the thread to generate debate, not just give on programme/channel.

Up to Tuesday I was told that Tipping Point was ahead of the Christmas afternoon films. So people don't mind the same schedules even in Christmas week. Also keeping it on all year round and not taking a break, which Pointless was criticised for, is actually a sound strategy.
It's a funny old business television. Tbh I prefer the films the afternoon this close to Christmas. I think ITV should have had some films on by now. But the BBC does show Pointless all year round, with very few breaks. Its now started to wear itself out. Pointless returns to BBC1 on the 27th. |

Is there nothing that interests you on this day? No films, or Christmas films. Comedies?

I'm shocked at the lack of respect for these great institutions this poster has. |

Thanks. I expected it tbh. The older viewers will probably have moved over to ITV.

Its now started to wear itself out. Pointless returns to BBC1 on the 27th. I like films in the afternoon over Christmas but it's still like a working week, next week more will be around for them. I'm assuming this anyway. |
