If Glee continues to do that well with song download sales, then I doubt they are going to cut many of the musical numbers. In fact, they may do more. If the ratings continue to be just decent, they are going to have to try to make money off song recordings and other merchandise sales to recoup the expensive show episode costs.
Yet another brilliant cut and paste job, pishoff, keep 'em coming. They just never get old.
Aw, you're trying sarcasm. You want to be like your uncle pish. That's cute.

Well, that's certainly a contribution, Jay!

So since you clearly read everything I've posted today, and yesterday, and pretty much every day, I'll take that as your admission I don't do those.

But if that were true, why would I pay so much attention to YOUR words? Hence the cutting and pasting? Btw, you don't actually have to use cut and paste on this forum. You just select the text before hitting reply, or use the quote function. So simple a caveman could do it. Damn, I'm really in trouble now.

Originally posted by Donnie: TBL: Honestly I wouldn't have expected these ratings. Ordering it was in my opinion always a smart decision of the network, but apparently it was not. I actually enjoyed the show. It's stupid and full of clichés, but as a soapy guilty pleasure it works and was better than the disaster that Melrose was. Also, at least they have an excuse for everyone looking like models, because they are supposed to be models. LOL. But if ratings don't go up, it might be the first show to say goodbye this season.
They don't look like models though. That's my biggest critique on the show. It doesn't look real because they chose pretty faces instead of modelesque bodies. I see models all the time where I work and neither of these people would get a call back after a Go-See. Pretty people just don't make good models. I agree the pilot was better than Melrose Place's. Good use of the city too.
Leno's fortunes seem to rise and fall based on his lead-in.
And in a related observation, I've noticed that thermometer readings tend to rise and fall based on the temperature.
I honestly am not watching Leno's show. I never watched him much in latenight either (or Letterman).
But it just seems so ridiculous to talk about trends on the basis of three broadcasts. ALL THREE OF WHICH got great ratings for NBC at that hour.
Yes, lead-in affects ratings. So does competition. So do HUT levels. So do a bunch of other things, including who Jay's interview bookers have lined up for a particular evening. But this past Tuesday's instalment, the lowest-rated night so far, which had a crappy lead-in, tough competition, and Michael Moore as the main interview guest, still got ratings significantly higher than what most people were predicting for the PREMIERE.
So it is NOT established that he needs a good lead-in or easy competition or a great 'get' in order to get ratings substantially better than NBC has been getting in that timeslot with expensive scripted programming. It may be so established in the coming weeks, at which time we can say "Well, that has been established." Until then, it's just a lot of gum-flapping, and Jay's looking more confident every night.
Because he's starting to figure out primetime is not such a big deal. I mean, they let Nathan Fillion star in a primetime show. For a little while longer.
Then why bother to reply to my post?
Other than to prove how less funny than the unfunny Jay Leno you are?
It is also "funny" how you refer to one of the highest rated series on NBC as a "crappy lead-in" (i.e. "The Biggest Loser"). Crappy or not, it gets better ratings than "The Office", but so does most every other series on television.
What is established is that you are NOT funny and the only person who thinks so is probably you and your mother, who is the founder, president, and only member of your fan club. The only reason you even reply to people's messages is so you have a reason to get out of bed in the morning...that, and to use the cut and paste feature on your computer.
LOL There's so some truth in that. Also, he never ever agrees with anybody, even if he has the same exact opinion.
As for VD, I think it will have a drop similar to MP at around 20%. The competition is tougher. It will also be interesting to see how Supernatural does against Fringe. These two shows seem to be appealing to the same exact audience in the same exact timeslot.
Um--no--there's overlap, both being genre shows with a kind of dark moody atmosphere, but 'the same exact audience'? Nuh-uh.
SPN's core audience is going to HATE Fringe with a passion this season.
Fringe's core audience will continue to be marginally aware SPN is still on.
If SPN survived Lost, it'll survive Fring. If it doesn't, I don't care since I want it to end this season anyway I just hope Fringe is able to handle the competition as well as SPN has been, i'd like it to last 5 seasons too). I like both shows, but i'll watch the CW live tonight (and tivo Fringe and Survivor).

If anyone sucks, its you pishoff. You just like the sound of your fingers tapping at the keyboard.
I can sum up every single post you ever make...
The CW sucks, they should cancel that network. Showtime sucks, they should cancel that network. Nathan Fillion sucks, he should quit acting. I am so witty that everyone bows down and worships me like the God that I am.
You might actually be funny, pishoff, if you weren't so pathetic.
Sept 16th "Glee" lost 850,000 viewers and 11 percent of the demo. And ABC and CBS did not air new programming but they will Sept. 23. I believe "Glee" will continue to lose audience. By the end of October "Glee" will do barely 4 million viewers and in the 2's in demo. With the fortune FOX spent in promotion and advertising, looks like "Glee" is far from the monster hit FOX execs "prayed" and "needed" it to be.
America's Next Top Model - 2.791 million viewers - 2.0/3 HH - 1.4/4 A18-49 - 1.6/5 A18-34 - 2.3/7 W18-34 (are these the lowest ever for ANTM outside a clip show? or, even, including a clip show...?)
The Beautiful Life: TBL - 1.384 million viewers - 1.0/2 HH - 0.6/2 A18-49 - 0.8/2 A18-34 - 1.1/3 W18-34

Welcome aboard, MrPortnoy.
I agree with your opinion on "Glee". Fox better hope that it starts to level off soon or it could very well be hitting those numbers you predict.
Better news for TJLS tonight as, even though ratings slipped throughout, it wasn't as drastic as the night before (Michael Moore = turn off?) and, besides some brief post-AGT tune-in in the first 14 minutes, the shares in HH and A18-49 stayed consistent.
Leno's audience is old... and I think that it benefited from AGT's similarly older skewing audience (while The Biggest Loser has a much stronger A18-49 concentration).
