We only receive the top 100 cable shows for adults 25-54 for the whole day from our primary source, if you don't see your show it was in that top 100 list. Will add extras that arrive from @TVBill later. I generally filter out repeats, and kids shows, and non-primetime shows.

    American Horror Story is down to a 0.6 and only 1068 viewers? WOW. Isn’t that a huge drop from last week? And considering SOA numbers, it makes it look even worse.

  2. Mags

    Missing Flashpoint!

  3. Stella

    What about flashpoint?

  4. brian

    AHS was a repeat from last week… that was the 5th or 6th time the ep was shown on Fx… tonight is the new episode… when adding all the viewings together, AHS is getting many eyeballs!

  5. Brian

    Judy it is a repeat.

  6. @Stella, ION isn’t a cable network (it’s a broadcast network) and while we didn’t see final numbers for ION, in the prelim numbers it averaged a 0.4 adults 18-49 rating at 10p ET (the Criminal Minds repeat at 9p averaged a 0.6 A18-49 at 9p).

  7. indeed AHS was a repeat, (I thought that would be obvious with the 11pm start, but I guess not).

  8. Stella

    @Robert thanks, I wasn’t sure under which category it would fall or if you guys do post ratings from ION

  9. boris

    American Horror Story is a repeat. Do not jump the gun.

  10. rob60990

    Wow Reed Between the Lines tanked.

  11. @rob, yep. no big “Hip Hop Awards” lead-in

  12. fringewillget5seasons

    Oh Flashpoint’s started its ION run? Time to tune in! Impressive CM number, I’ve always wondered what it pulls on ION.

  13. ThundaPC

    Speaking of awards is there any info on the Scream Awards (9:00PM, SPIKE)? I’m guessing viewers tuned out after Auction Hunters ended.

  14. @ThundaPC: it wasn’t in the top 100 ranked by Adults 25-54, and we haven’t seen anything from @TVBill yet.

    edit: and of course as soon as I typed that…TV Bill came through! 698,000 viewers and a 0.3 adults 18-49 rating for the Scream Awards

  15. And though I didn’t include them above, the BBT marathon on TBS ranged from 0.7 to 1.1 adults 18-49 ratings (the 2 eps from 10-11p both were 1.1). I also didn’t include the Law & Order: SVU marathon which ranged (at least based on the data I saw) from a 0.3 A18-49 rtg at 8am to a 0.9 at 7pm.

  16. Ram510

    Reed will not be renewed. It’s not a good show and the numbers reflect that

  17. idol rules

    Reed Between the Lines tanked. But BET will renew it because their sitcoms dn’t usually produce ratings like that.

  18. ThundaPC

    Cool, thanks Robert!

  19. Christian

    MTV’s shows please.

  20. Hillbilly

    I’m crossing my fingers American Hoggers will be in the list next week.
