Ratings

[Cmill216]

In hindsight, I have to say the ratings for "Aqua" were quite misleading in regards to the episode's actual quality.

 

[Brainiac 8]

But I liked Aqua mister!

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

I actually think the show was 6+ million for most of Season 1 when it wasnt on against anything else Tuesdays at 9 PM

Final Ratings are a little lower..

Tid-bit about Supernatural:

'Supernatural' luck?

Eric Kripke caught a break when the CW picked up his show "Supernatural" after a less than great first year in the Nielsens. He reasoned that part of that was because it followed "The Gilmore Girls" and was successful in getting the show moved behind a more compatible program, "Smallville."

Which, of course, put it right up against "Grey's Anatomy" and "CSI."

"It's been a roller-coaster ride for us," he told the Los Angeles Times. "We're fighting our hearts out to hold on to an audience. It's like we're the Japanese businessmen beneath Godzilla and Mothra."

The good news is Kelly Kahl, programming chief of the network, says the show isn't losing viewers from "Smallville" and "I don't know if there's another CW show we could put there that would do any better."

I read an interview with that guy, he sounded like he really thought there will be a next season for Supernatural.

Ausiello said yesterday, Smallville has an excellent chance.

Ausiello said yesterday, Smallville has an excellent chance.

Well that's a bit of an understatement, really.

 

[KalKai]

We didn't need Ausiello to tell us that now did we.

Anyone heard anything about Dawn getting replaced?

 

[thebigtree95]

Just reporting what I read.

Hmmm... well, it's not SV-related, but it's an interesting tidbit nonetheless:

From E! Online, Watch with Kristin (3/5/07):

Q: Have you heard anything about Supernatural's chances for a third season?
A: Sadly, it's not looking good. Ditto for Gilmore Girls. And The Class.

http://www.eonline.com/gossip/kristin/blog/index.jsp


Is CW *that* stupid? Wow! I've never watched GG, but I do know it's second in ratings only to SV for scripted programming on their network. Why don't they dump 7th Heaven (again) and all those comedies that are consistently found at the bottom of the ratings every week?

Jeeze. What a dumb network.

The girl who plays Rory, cant think of her name at the moment (wait.... its coming to me...... Alexis Bledel ), she doesnt want to come back and do an 8th season. Could explain why?

I was reading something over at mediaweek yesterday, that said Smallville and Supernatural were the only scripted shows on the Network that were worth renewing.

The original script runners/show creators left at the end of last season and it just hasn't been the same show for GG... creatively and personally, the cast really got a lot more out of the show with the original show runners.

I'm not surprised Alexis Bledel doesn't want to come back, I betcha Laura Graham is feeling the same way. The dialogue isn't nearly as good as it was...

I'm surprised that SPN looks like it's on the chopping block, but what else will they put in there? It's crazy... nothing else did as well after Smallville as SPN has done. They'd be nuts to cancel it.

 

[AssMan]

It would suck if they cancelled Supernatural those **** tards I hope they told about it ahead of time to do a decent ending. ****ing CW if they cancel Supernatural

 

[avidreader]

Now that DeKnight is moving on I guess he feels a little more confident in saying stuff like this.

There was a joke going around earlier this year that CW actually stands for the Coulda Woulda network. Hmm... Maybe it wasn't a joke after all...

That was in answer to why the Aquaman Pilot wasnt picked up. t:

 

[Migu-EL]

LOLt:

 

[Brainiac 8]

I swear I'm liking DeKnight more and more.t:

 

[AssMan]

Now that DeKnight is moving on I guess he feels a little more confident in saying stuff like this.

What is he moving on from ? Isnt there still at least one more season of Smallville confirmed (7) ?

 

[Brainiac 8]

Yes, but DeKnight is done with his work of Smallville as of this season.

He only has one more episode, then he's done.

 

[AssMan]

Yes, but DeKnight is done with his work of Smallville as of this season.

He should save those types of quotes until after Smallville is cancelled. Because that one episode could be his very last episode before the show is up

I'm not following you on that one.

 

[Migu-EL]

Yeah who said anything about Smallville getting cancelled?

 

[AssMan]

I'm not following you on that one.

In other words talk bad about a network you work for if that network does not like it that network fires you. Im just saying he should wait until after Smallville is cancelled for those types of quotes. You never know the big bosses could be moody one day & reads that quote.

Well his contract is up and he's moving on, so what's he got to lose.

If thats the case then have at it Stevey & personally on the whole Smallville coming back for a Season 8 think unless they have a to die for story to tell they should end it at 7. We all know what happens to a show when it continues just because the name of the show is popular Look at Lost the creators of Lost want Lost to end in Season 5.
