OwlChemist81 Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) Damn, look what the coronavirus did for Toonami! MHA cracks 700K, SAO, Demon Slayer, and Food Wars! all join the 500K+ club for 2020, and JoJo does better than normal! Even more amazing are the fact that in 18-34, MHA and FW! tied for 2nd place, while in men 18-49, the Toonami shows came in 2nd-5th. Only Harvey Danger did better! This ain't rocket science. Keep people stuck at home, and they'll watch more TV. But it doesn't hurt that at least what Toonami's offering is compelling!

Jman Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 With the exception of the last gasp of the Fox Men, the news is dominating ratings for obvious reasons. At least Toonami is working mostly unimpeded, but that’s cold comfort for most stuck in their homes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 It certainly provided a welcome respite to all the doom and gloom, and that might be why the numbers spiked. This may also indicate that in normal times, the socialite component of ratings is more Live+3 after the shows air. Either that, or it was just that people were bored and discovering the shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted March 31, 2020 Author Share Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) Week 2 of the shutdown was oddly enough not as kind as Week 1 to Toonami, BUT it DOMINATED in Adults 18-34 and Men 18-49: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-3-28-2020.html "Adult Swim’s line-up performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at 0.12/259K & 0.10/246K compared to last week’s 0.13/362K & 0.14/381K, MY HERO ACADEMIA down 0.02 to 0.32, SWORD ART UNDERWORLD down 0.04 to 0.25, DEMON SLAYER down 0.05 to 0.24/453K, FOOD WARS down 0.06 to 0.22, BLACK CLOVER 0.05 to 0.21/366K, JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE down 0.01 to 0.19/327K, NARUTO steady at 0.03/293K, PRIMAL down 0.03 to 0.12/243K, and SAMURAI JACK down 0.03 to 0.11/225K." MHA even won the night across all cable originals with FEMALES 12-34! In 18-49, Toonami shows were the 1st, 5th, 6th, and 7th-highest rated non-news programs in 18-49!

Ginguy Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Putting things in perspective, just about any original programming that is not news will probably dominate ratings. There is a limit to how much "We're all gonna die" and "It's his/her fault" people will watch before they tune out completely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted April 7, 2020 Author Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) Well, Week 3 of what unfortunately turned out to only be a trilogy, at least for now: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-4-4-2020.html SAO sunsets with a 2nd week over 500K, and all 5 eligible shows make the Top 50. MHA wins 18-34 and SAO ties for 2nd. I really hope they've got whatever "classic" show they're airing in place at 2:30 AM starting April 18th so after this DBZ Kai Easter weekend interlude we can go back to normal long enough to finish off Demon Slayer at least. But I also wouldn't mind a Demon Slayer marathon at some point if this pandemic hiatus has to continue. It is worth noting that IF it's one of the FLCL remakes, it would carry us through to at least Memorial Day, and so would MHA, if they resume production. But as they didn't do a marathon in 2019, it's not a given they'll do a Memorial Day marathon in 2020, especially if that's one of the first "back to normal" days.

The1gairon Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 I would love a MHA marathon! We just ended one of the best arcs too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted April 7, 2020 Author Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) Apparently, the last dubbed episode of MHA to be produced, and the ONLY one that's available on FUNimation, but not yet Toonami/[as], is episode 83. Whether or not that episode will premiere on April 18th is as yet unknown. It does not seem like its dub has gone back into production yet from the actors' own home studios. I suppose it's possible that it does before the end of the month, leaving its potential re-debut NOT a one-off. Now I wonder, with MHA's timeslot temporarily blocked, and SAO having just ended its most recent season, if they might actually try to blow off Demon Slayer in a mini-marathon of the last 3 episodes in one night, right before moving everything up? After that, MHA would still start the block with its last 5 episodes, and then we'd have Black Clover at 12, JoJo at 12:30, Food Wars! at 1 (LMAO Food Wars won't go anywhere), and Shippuden at 1:30 before an hour of reruns at 2. Might as well bring back The Promised Neverland and Attack on Titan for that! Of course this all depends on a lot. How far into Demon Slayer and JoJo were THEIR dubs produced, for example? Apparently Black Clover has another 10 episodes left to go to catch up, and Food Wars and Shippuden have enough episodes left for 6 full months at least. It seems to me like making new deals for temporary replacements for the block SHOULDN'T be as hard as airing programs that haven't been dubbed yet, either way. Hopefully we get some clarity as to what Toonami plans to air beyond the DBZ Kai marathon soon!

The1gairon Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) And yet they were able to dub at least the first 3 episodes of Fruits Basket 2019 Season 2, but I heard that was because those were originally prepared for a limited theatrical release that was called off. I do wonder just how hard it iS to produce an official dub from Funimation from everyone's home. From what i read on Twitter the actors don't seem to be doing this. It's only small mobile games or audio books. Edited April 8, 2020 by elfie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted April 7, 2020 Author Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) Well, MHA IS returning on 4/18, so maybe they worked it out? There was one episode that got recorded BEFORE the hiatus. If the last 6 episodes of the season will indeed be dubbed from home, then I guess that means Toonami gets them only a week after FUNimation Now, like Fire Force last year?

Ginguy Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I have the feeling that the mini-thon was always in the cards, regardless of the coof. It is on a holiday weekend, and we often see those kind of programming changes on holiday weekends. I think they will be back to a more regular schedule sooner rather than later. They shrank because Japan has put out zero decent animu of late, or if it is decent it has icky bewbs so DeMarco no like. I suspect that if [as] could get a really hot property then the block would be expanded again without much difficulty. Programming is just making decisions based on the resources they have available, nothing new there honestly. It is good to see that the programs being aired are doing extremely well in key demo during a time when there is no real competition, so that is encouraging. The real issue will be the retention of that strength when sports resume broadcasting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) We'll find out how the rest of the lineup did, BUT FIRST, how about a walk down memory lane? Here's how well TOONAMI did FIVE YEARS AGO: And now back to present day: "Adult Swim’s late-night line-up returned from a week off and performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at 0.14/341K & 0.15/327K, MY HERO ACADEMIA at 0.30, DEMON SLAYER at 0.26, FOOD WARS at 0.25, BLACK CLOVER at 0.24/414K, JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE at 0.20, NARUTO at 0.18/308K, PRIMAL at 0.15/263K and SAMURAI JACK at 0.15/260K." It doesn't say on the site, but all 6 of Toonami's shows gained markedly in 18-49 from 2 weeks ago! And here are the full numbers for the night: https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-over-20-million-viewers-for-concert-one-world-together-at-home/ Last week's block was ranked #2 for 2020 in both total viewers and adults 18-49, and if you only compare the block against the 12-3 AM timeframe from earlier blocks this year, that holds true as well. 3/21/2020 is still tops for the year!

OwlChemist81 Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) I really should have posted this on Saturday, and I will try to going forward, but before I post this week's ShowBuzzDaily Top 50, first let's take a look back at the Top 40 from 5 years ago Saturday: This was one of the highest-rated lineups to that point in the year, but did this Year's version follow the same pattern? Well, not exactly, though there IS a similarity: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-4-25-2020.html The lead eligible show landed at #5 both years, and another show landed at #8, but the similarities end there. Five years ago was the "girl power" era of Toonami, as can be observed through those massive numbers in Female 12-34. Five years later, that demographic has mostly left Toonami for the likes of Live PD and the Hunger Games marathon, though to be fair, those aired in different timeslots. But MHA did pull the second-highest total viewers (down only from last week) and an estimated at least 3rd place in Adults 18-49.

OwlChemist81 Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 Well, I guess I was wrong. Paranoia Agent didn't do as well as I had hoped, which is somewhat shocking given its #3 Twitter Trend. "DRAGON BALL at 0.11/263K & 0.11/255K compared to last week’s 0.14/341K & 0.15/327K, MY HERO ACADEMIA down 0.01 to 0.29, DEMON SLAYER down 0.02 to 0.24, PARANOIA AGENT at 0.20/374K, BLACK CLOVER down 0.04 to 0.20/374K, JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE down 0.01 to 0.19/340K, NARUTO down 0.02 to 0.16/298K, PRIMAL up 0.02 to 0.17/302K and SAMURAI JACK up 0.01 to 0.16/292K." That's #6 out of 17 for the year in total viewers, but for the 12-3A time frame, it places 3rd. In 18-49, it's estimated at 5th place for the year, but just comparing the 12-3A time frame, is estimated to come in 4th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) Oops, I did it again! Once again I missed my "flashback 5 years ago" post on Saturday. When WILL I get in the habit of doing that? Who the hell knows!? Well, this isn't reassuring. MHA back to pre-pandemic levels, but at least it still won 18-34 and Men 18-49: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-5-2-2020.html In fact, Toonami utterly DOMINATED the Male 18-49 demo, but with UFC Prelims returning to ESPN, I don't expect that to continue this week. Plus, JoJo finally back in the Top 20! And as for the rest of the lineup: "Adult Swim’s late-night line-up performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at 0.08/188K & 0.08/193K compared to last week’s 0.11/263K & 0.11/255K, MY HERO ACADEMIA down 0.03 to 0.26, DEMON SLAYER down 0.04 to 0.20, PARANOIA AGENT down 0.03 to 0.17/338K, BLACK CLOVER down 0.05 to 0.15/308K, JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE down 0.05 to 0.14/280K, NARUTO down 0.02 to 0.14/284K, PRIMAL down 0.04 to 0.13/257K and SAMURAI JACK down 0.02 to 0.14/275K." Toonami's average was only 354K, the first time since March 14th the normal lineup was under 400K, and ranking 10th out of 18 for the year. Its 18-49 average was 228K, ranking 13th out of 18 for the year. So, despite half the block's known dominance in a few key demographics and MHA's #3 ranking, Toonami this week was below-average in the ratings. But damn, the quality of EVERY EPISODE was good.

OwlChemist81 Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) Updated. "Adult Swim’s late-night line-up performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at 0.09/234K & 0.09/231K compared to last week’s 0.08/188K & 0.08/193K, MY HERO ACADEMIA up 0.03 to 0.29/590K, PARANOIA AGENT up 0.08 to 0.25/452K, MOB PSYCHO 100 at 0.24/444K, BLACK CLOVER up 0.07 to 0.22/400K, JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE up 0.05 to 0.19/351K, NARUTO up 0.05 to 0.19/336K, and SAMURAI JACK up 0.05 to 0.19/308K." Well, Paranoia Agent couldn't crack 500K, but that's OK. Looks like that's an average of 429K, and lots of "up" in 18-49 means it was a good week for Toonami!

I think I shall have to listen to "Modern Crusaders" to celebrate! Of course, this also means Mob Psycho probably pulled a Deadman and outrated its premiere by a pretty wide margin, but we shall find out later today! Where-- oh right MHA was a rerun.

OwlChemist81 Posted May 13, 2020 Author Share Posted May 13, 2020 https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-saturday-night-live-concludes-its-45th-season-on-nbc/ There you have it. MHA didn't lose THAT big from Family Guy, at least not in key demos. All of Toonami was Top 100 for the night across all cable in 18-49 and the reruns in the first half were as well in 25-54. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 (edited) Mob Psycho 100 Episode 1: 10/27/18 11:30 PM - 345K 5/9/20 1 AM Rerun - 444K That's up by 99K total viewers! Can this continue tonight? Finally, yet another blast from the past: behold 2015 ratings for this day 5 years ago! This was one of the weaker performances that month; will tonight follow suit?

OwlChemist81 Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 I had a feeling that due to UFC, it would be a rough week for Toonami, but at least MHA managed to beat the ESPN SportsCenter that came afterward in total viewers and a few key demos: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-5-16-2020.html Oddly enough, we now get Paranoia Agent reported on. Go figure! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 UFC and Joker won the ratings without a lot of effort. Not surprising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) But Paranoia Agent already premiered on cable 15 years ago, in what way does it qualify for the "top cable originals" listing? Edited May 19, 2020 by PokeNirvash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted May 21, 2020 Author Share Posted May 21, 2020 I dunno; beats the hell outta me! https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-12-million-watch-graduate-together-america-honors-the-high-school-class-of-2020-across-various-networks/ So there have it. Family Guy couldn't even muster 700K and it's Toonami who suffers. Third-worst rated block of the year so far in both total viewers and Adults 18-49, but as for the 12-3 AM time frame, in 18-49, this lineup was actually the second-worst. Amazingly enough, Mob Psycho rebounded from Paranoia Agent, and that boost was enough to beat its premiere on November 3rd, 2018 in 18-49! So now in 18-49, this early-block rerun is 2 for 2 in outrating its premiere! Perhaps premieres really don't have that much value to the block over reruns, despite Toonami's near-purging the block of them last summer? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 Hey, 2nd place in 18-34 and #10 18-49 for JoJo is not too shabby, I guess! http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-5-23-2020.html I mean, 273K total viewers may not be that great, but in times like these, gotta take what we can get, right?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted May 29, 2020 Author Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Alright, y'all, this is a fun one!

See how that lame-ass Law & Order SVU got a 0.12 million, and 0.18 in Adults 18-34??? JOJO TIED THAT SHIT!!!!

OwlChemist81 Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 Boy, there HAS been a lot going on in the world these days. So much that I forgot to post this, the next installment of my "FLASHBACK - FIVE YEARS AGO" series: Last week's numbers aren't out yet, but soon we'll see how JoJo (and maybe Paranoia Agent) did... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
