Most BASIC cable networks (ABC, FOX, NBC, CBS, etc) are run by crusty 70-year-olds who are completely out of touch with changing trends, which is why you keep seeing the same old genres being greenlit into 2019 that haven't changed since the 70's. The other networks are more and more being run by the younger generation. This only perplexes me more that Live PD is an A&E original, and A&E is not at all a basic cable channel.

Well, THAT happened. More adults 18-49 watched Dragon Ball Super at 3 AM last week than TOTAL VIEWERS watched Gundam in that timeslot for the previous 12 weeks on average! I guess it's clear now that Dragon Ball Super DOES have some replay value! Hopefully the final episode of Super gives the rest of the lineup a boost next week. Say, does TOONAMI even have a promo for it yet?? You would think they would blow it out, but I guess it really doesn't "need" one... Hopefully it gives the rest of Toonami enough of a boost for some of the later shows to break some of their previous records with their return.

Blatch Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Am I the only one who thinks this isn't completely stupid? I mean, we can complain about reruns at the front all we want, but this time, it's Dragon Ball. A series that makes fucking money. I imagine it won't hold up too bad in reruns, and this goes double considering all the episodes it has. And if Toonami is proven wrong about that, they can always abort and take a ratings decrease. Demon Slayer at 1:30 is a little suspect, but certainly better than getting deathslotted. It's a touch older than the two almost-simuldubs premiering before it, but why slot it after Food Wars!? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted October 3, 2019 Author Share Posted October 3, 2019 I had a bad feeling about this, and it turns out I was right, but I never expected Demon Slayer to premiere at 1:30! However, I guess putting it back-to-back with Black Clover kinda makes sense. The question is "which episode of DBS is it gonna be?" I'm thinking it will be that contractually-obligated rerun of 131, and then after that, it will likely flash back to an earlier spot in the TOP beginning Oct. 19. The first encounter with Jiren aired RIGHT (2 fps instead of 1) would be great. I'm thinking this rerun of DBS will be replaced with MHA S4 as soon as they're able to air it. And as for Food Wars? Probably the same deal from Hell that kept Gundam the Origin stuck at 3 AM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean "last-minute chop-out?" Was there something that got cut from the episode as aired on Toonami? According to Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Ball_Super: "Episodes 130 and 131 were live streamed in various cities across Latin American countries including Mexico, El Salvador, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Nicaragua for free in public venues.[119][120] The public screenings drew large record audiences, which included filling stadiums in Mexico and other Latin American countries,[121] with each screening drawing audiences numbering in the thousands to the tens of thousands.[122]" I'm not sure a mere 911K viewers beats THAT (it might if most stadia were smaller), but it IS true that it's exactly HALF of Toonami's high point on ShowBuzzDaily for a NON-Dragon Ball series: the 1822K that the first episode of Akame ga KILL!! got in 2015 in a 12:30 AM timeslot. (DBZ Kai got 2015K a half-hour earlier but it wasn't included as an "original") As for 2019's high point for a non-DBS series, that would be Boruto, and it won't even be on the lineup in 2.5 weeks! But I digress. https://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-college-football-on-abc-and-espn-easily-outdraw-mlb-playoffs-on-fs1/ We have now learned that DBS's final episode outrated its Family Guy lead-in by 80K total viewers, a 9.63% increase (for a total of 109.63% retention). But the show performed even better in terms of retention in target demos: 132.35% in Adults 18-34; 127.85% in Adults 18-49; and 123.53% in Adults 25-54. And as for the rest of the lineup in 18-49: 10/5/19 - Adults 18-49 Show Viewers Retention TOONAMI DBS (P) 606,000 127.85% Dr. Stone 391,000 64.52% Dr. Stone 373,000 95.40% FireForce 310,000 83.11% FoodWars! 273,000 88.06% B.

If not, hope you enjoyed the ride! Now, on to the strange decision to also rerun PRIMAL before Toonami: In its first night, it didn't exactly inspire confidence, at #18 18-49 and 538K total viewers: http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-monday-cable-originals-network-finals-10-7-2019.html Spoiler http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-tuesday-cable-originals-network-finals-10-8-2019.html But the 2nd night did better, at #7 18-49 and 661K total viewers: Spoiler Well, at least it seems like it's on a trajectory to beat Infinity Train.

I was spoiled on the winner of the tournament using the Dragon Balls to bring back all the other universes, but I had no idea it would be Android 17 (especially after his "sacrifice," the outcome of which I was also spoiled on), and that the stakes of NOT making such a wish would be so high!

OwlChemist81 Posted October 15, 2019 Author Share Posted October 15, 2019 Eh, to be fair, if it were able to be the lead-in show for Toonami now that Dragon Ball Super is over, it probably would have done better. We don't know how well Family Guy did as a lead-in on weeknights, but we usually have that information for 10:30 and 11 PM Saturdays. Not quite yet, though. The earliest show last Saturday Night that was not a rerun was One-Punch Man, and, well... http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-10-12-2019.html Lupin once again missed the Top 50 at #58 with a 0.12 in 18-49 and 232K viewers. What's interesting is the much-vaunted bane of Toonami, ONE CHAMPIONSHIP MMA, only landed at #95 with a 0.09 in 18-49, but 264K viewers; however, that is still fewer than any of its competitors on Toonami!

Jman Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 I think everyone expected ratings to be down after Super’s grand finale. I feel like Demon Slayer is gonna be the new JoJo, people are mad the dub is only Toonami and will either wait it out for Netflix or watch it subbed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Well, that's... oof. I know it's too early to tell if anything is tanking after one week, but DB Super reruns aren't helping their case. Here's hoping they only last for three more weeks. On the plus side, it looks like the middle isn't going to be so bad, and OPM S2 actually beat gen:LOCK's total viewer average (415K). Where we stand, it looks like the block has fallen so far that even the front taking a massive blow won't dent the rest much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted October 15, 2019 Author Share Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) Hey, you're right! The total viewer average of gen:LOCK was 413,250. OPM's first episode of Season 2 DID beat that... ...but the question is: can it keep it up? AOTS3P2 burst onto the scene with a relative bang with 439K but it ended up with only a 377.7K average over its 10-episode premiere run (which includes an episode at midnight; including only the 11:30 episodes, be they premiere or rerun yields 380.4K). One the other hand, gen:LOCK slumped in with a 347K but ended at a much improved 413.25K on average. I guess my point is the first episode is not the average. Hopefully Punchy S2 will be boosted toward the end by some MHA S4 network premieres instead of Dragon Ball Super reruns. It may turn out that Dragon Ball Super is airing as a rerun at 11 PM to prove to programming (who never seems to learn a lesson for more than 6 months) that reruns don't work in the first timeslot, no matter which show is airing! Here's an interesting article about the state of cable TV, and the conclusion is: it's dying quickly, but it may not die off completely, at least in the U.S... https://cablecompare.com/cable-tv-statistics-is-cable-tv-dead/ Edited October 15, 2019 by OwlChemist81 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatch Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 And I'm someone who thought DBS reruns could work just on name recognition, but I guess it's nice to be proven wrong. Regarding the post on cable TV, I have a feeling we'll see some growth in it over the next few years as people get overwhelmed by the massive amount of streaming services and paying for all of them turns out to be more expensive than just getting cable, but you never know. Personally, I'm happy my family continues to foot the bill and I get access to a reasonable selection of stuff that I can DVR and watch whenever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1gairon Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) OH MY GOD! Yeah we know that one week isn't enough to see how a schedule shuffle affects the ratings, but from this we can assess that reruns do not work at the front of the block! Reruns of anything, or EVERYTHING! Edited October 15, 2019 by elfie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
