The1gairon Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Okay see THIS is an improvement. The numbers only give me headaches and I been looking at the ratings for way longer than I should've! I hope other networks follow suit if this proves to be a good move for CN and maybe then they'll find a way to measure how many eyes watching streaming shows/movies too!

Blatch Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 In another situation, I feel like this would be whiny complaining against the system. At least Turner is apparently doing well enough to warrant not needing good TV ratings... although I am somewhat skeptical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1gairon Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Yeah my skeptical side is telling me they're only making this as an excuse so the gradually declining ratings in GENERAL FOR ALL OF CABLE is justified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daos Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I mean... Nielsen definitely isn't perfect anymore. But what are you replacing it with? What system do you have in place to determine how much advertisers pay for each show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What system do you have in place to determine how much advertisers pay for each show? That’s the problem. Everyone goes “Nielsen’s are shit and inaccurate but it’s the best we got.” Because no one offers an alternative. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Live+3 and Live+7 seem to be the way to go, but then again, that's STILL only counting TVs. Oh, hey look, it's Tuesday. You know what THAT means... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1gairon Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 OOOOOOHHH BUDDY! I CAN'T WAIT! LOOKING AT RATINGS IS SUCH A GOOD WAY TO SPEND MY TIME! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katt_goddess Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 If they don't like my Nielsen reports, they can offer better shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginguy Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 ITT: Turner admits CN has garbage shows, thinks of piss-poor premise in vague and failed attempt to deflect. Side Note: seems our WYSIWYG got an upgrade.... spiffysuper spiffy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
