The Vampire Diaries was amazing last night.
SCANDAL. YESSSSSSSSSS.
Before you know it peeps, SCANDAL >>>> REVENGE.
And with less promotion.
TVD still No.1 on CW
Still very good for TVD!
B&TB had some hope with its 0.8 but it’s back down to most likely being cancelled.
So good for TVD to beat ABC and NBC.
Beauty & The Beast needs to be moved to Tuesdays at 9P.
Glad that X Factor didn’t get adjusted down!
Yay, Supernatural is still #3 for the week!!
I really hope Elementary continues doing well, I really like it.
Still good for TVD even with all the preemptions
Still very good for TVD!
So Scandal stayed the same? YASSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Less promotion? LMAO. All that hype for Scandal for 2 weeks and that isn’t even a series high.
Vampire Diaries still KING of CW.
I agree with Max, what the haters got to say now?
WOW b4 TVD was at 3 mil and some Now it ONLY 2 Mil
Does anyone think that the only sitcoms the ABC & NBC execs should pick up are laugh track sitcoms that appeal to the lowest common denominator? Look at CBS. I read online that the only reason that CBS sitcoms have high ratings is because their on CBS & it has nothing to do with how good they are.
Extremely happy to see no adjustment down for Scandal!
Holy Crap, TVD in third place. Soon it will beat the X Factor. Vany wait to see that day.
@ Rob, stop hating..
Ouch did not expect TVD to go down but i did suspect that B&TB would because its ratings were too good to be true.
Wednesdays are back as the Best night for The CW!!
So are Beauty And The Beast’s ratings good enough 2 give it a 2nd season? Or is it still too soon 2 tell ??
And I agree, think the ratings would be better if it was moved 2 tuesdays… (I think)
LOVE Beauty And The Beast! Last nights eps was AMAZING! <3
