There's a lot of crossover audience there. A good chunk of Betty viewers are casual Greys fans who are just turning on the TV early. Without Greys, Betty drops.

But even with numbers like this it'll probably see a 4th season because of how bad most of ABC's other shows are doing.

Well, at least it's not quite as bad as the horrible premiere numbers. Still sad, though. The first episode last night was the best one they've done in years. No annoying guest stars taking away from the main cast. No stupid gimmicks. And the characters acting like real human beings. How I missed that.

Pre Grey's turn in. The people waiting for Grey's to come on.

That could be true, but with or without Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty is down significantly.

So, does anyone here have Time Warner Cable? The news at the top of the page mentions a dispute with LIN Communications that resulted in 15 TV stations (FOX, CBS, and CW at least)being pulled from Time Warner Cable customer's view.

So I have a question. Does the fact that Supernatural ends a few minutes before 10 have anything to do with the drop in the half hour, or is that corrected in the finals?

Time Warner vs. LIN caused the CBS station in Indianapolis to have the plug pulled on the cable rebroadcast. Has anyone started calling the local Indy hospitals to check on TV-aholic? Wink

It's the best crap there is on Thursday night TV.
And thanks for contributing for this forum with your insightful arguments, in saying that a well written and produced show is crap. Wink

How does the ratings adjustement work for Supernatural? is the time at the end attributed to the local affiliates? I just figured that the shortened Supernatural resulted in more commercials at the end of the timeslot, but still part of the network time.
