Is it me or did CW do REALLY well last night?

And kudos to CBS, that's above average!

CW averaging a 1.0 in the 18-34 demo is a rarity this summer... Nielsen changed their sample up this week, as far as I've been told... perhaps an effect (also cause for the delay)?

What was the change in sample for?

Very Nice for The CW!

Was this new "sample" just for this week or is it going to be the sample for the time being.

It's an annual thing.

But this year, Nielsen is getting rid of its National Hispanic People Meter, and instead the whole Hispanic sample will be included in the general National People Meter readings (don't ask me why it was separate).

But, yeah, I'm wondering when we're going to start seeing the Live+3 Commercial Minute Ratings...

Greetings TravisYanan...can you ascertain from your report whether the re-jiggered Nielsen sample has bumped up MyNetworkTV's numbers?...for the summer season, MNT's Monday night IFL Battleground has been averageing 0.6HH/1%, 815 thousand viewers, 0.39 A18-49.

Thank you very much.

Travis - Can I get numbers for last Thursday's Welcome To The Parker on Bravo?

"Welcome to the Parker" August 23 drew just 420K last week, which hasn't changed much from the debut. I doubt it'll get renewed. "Flipping Out" is doing much better, showing growth each episode, a sign people like it. It brough in 830K August 21. "Top Chef" hit its season high at 2.4 million August 22.

Hi Rodney, dare I ask, how is Mad Men holding up in its numbers?

Good news for you, Dumont. I got next weeks sheets, and MNT has other programming, and new things, rather than IFL Battleground and movies

Dumont (does a jig)

Yes, Justin, MyNetworkTV is awash this week and next with blockbuster specials and new fall series debuts.

The one I'm most looking forward to is "Breaking the Magician's Code: Magic's Biggest Secrets Finally Revealed", which is on next Wednesday September 5 from 9-10 pm, and is an encore of a previously aired FOX special.

According to legend (lore?), FOX discontinued this series of specials due to the intense pressure (magic?) exerted by professional magicians, who as a group were very angry at having their secrets exposed in primetime specials.

The first FOX broadcast of this special was on a Monday during the 1997 November Sweep, and sweep up audiences it did - the special garnered 24.2 million viewers (trouncing NFL Monday Night Football).

Mr. Meidel is clearly hoping for the same type of magic to occur on MyNetworkTV as he pulls vintage FOX specials like this out of his tophat.

I'm looking forward to Jail. I enjoy an occasional Cops, so this should be just as good!

I thought CBS would do better considering there was no competition last night, and it looks like I was right.
