Why do networks screen half an hour of post-game stuff after the super bowl, which surely loses them a lot of non- football fan viewers before the show they put on afterwards? You'd think they would want to maximize the viewers from the biggest lead-in you could ever get, by putting the lead-out show on as soon as possible. Is it required as part of screening the super bowl?

Even if they start losing viewers, there are still a crapload of people watching. They want to extend that viewership for as long as possible. The postgame show scored a 26.3 in the demo (the game itself was 39.1), while The Blacklist "only" did an 8.4.

I see, so they would rather have half an hour of more viewers for the ad revenue, than get more people to watch the Blacklist.

Has a post Super Bowl slot ever had a significant impact on an existing show's regular ratings? I can't think of any in recent memory.

I think Alias had its highest-rated episode ever when it was on after the Super Bowl. Not sure, though. Edit: Oh, I'm sorry, I misunderstood your question.

I think a lot more people would have watched the show if it had a lead-in of 114 million compared to 72 million. I feel like that makes sense. Maybe 40% more if you were looking for a number.

Maybe 40% more if you were looking for a number. You're thinking, though, of people who'd have their TV on when the episode starts versus people who actually stick through the entire episode. (Using demo numbers instead of total numbers from here on out.) When Glee had its big post-SB episode, I want to say they had 16.1 at the start of the episode drop to 12.9 within the first 15 minutes, and down under 10.0 for the last 15-30 minutes. The 30-ish % drop in demo numbers between the SB average and the post-game average don't necessarily mean that 30% more people might be tuned in to The Blacklist if they don't have a half hour of post-game wrap-up. It might skew the average demo for the hour a little higher, but it probably wouldn't be anything particularly remarkable.

Yeah it's kind of hard to prove that the post-SB time slot has any significant effect like that. And as those ratings indicate, the majority of viewers stuck around for the post game show, which wouldn't happen if they jumped straight to The Blacklist. It also helped that this year's Superbowl was a good game with a crazy ending, granted.

I don't think B99's ratings last season changed appreciably after the SB slot or it's GG win. Its boost this season is probably 95% timeslot. B99 went from a 1.9 pre-SB to a 6.9 in the post-SB slot to a 1.4 and 1.2 for it's subsequent new episodes. The caveat is that those new episodes aired during the Winter Olympics as well.

less laughter posted:It was one of Caviezel's brain farts, true, but it's on the showrunners that they left it in and didn't cut it because they didn't want to upset their diva actor. Is Caviezel really that bad tempered? He seems extremely laid back and relaxed in the blooper reels, especially given they probably make a "Jesus" joke every time they get bad weather.

Sleepy Hollow was back to form and I think that basically can be attributed to 3 things: 1) More Orlando Jones 2) The return of John Noble 3) Actually doing something with Katrina's character (even if it's just Star Wars) 4) Actually paying off the whole overblown CAN WE TRUST THE CAPTAIN NOW? subplot Orlando Jones has such a presence that you don't realize what you were missing until you miss it. If they had consolidated all those post-mid-season-finale episodes into a single episode it wouldn't have been so bad.

Man, I love The Mindy Project. It really got good after a terrible season 1 and the first half of season 2. Freaking out over an earthquake is such a East coast thing. After I moved to CA the first mild earthquake I panicked and dove at my flatscreen TV to keep it from falling over.

Stupid derailing question but here goes: I remember watching a clip from something where a guy goes into a (record store?) and kills the clerk and cleans out the register. When he leaves, he talks to a boy under one of the displays but doesn't kill him. I remember the store's walls were red, yellow, and (black?). Thanks to those who help...

Yeah, sounds like the beginning of the first episode of Utopia to me, which coincidentally is as much as I want to see of Utopia.

I continue to hope that the HBO remake of UK Utopia will drum up hype for the original series to be allowed to end on its own terms.

Series two tanked in ratings and critical reception and C4 is run via ad revenue. They don't really gain anything by looking three years into the future, when the original series might have reached a natural conclusion any way and hoping the Fincher version is both made and a success.

The Englishness of a massive government conspiracy and an engineered superflu discovered by a handful of comic book geeks who are pursued by a lone assassin. Or, did you mean the Englishness of a school shooting? It's got about as much Englishness in it as any other show that seems like it wanted to be an American show.
