Awesome podcast.
Here’s a bit about ratings from http://tvbythenumbers.com/2008/10/15/tuesday-ratings-ncis-and-the-mentalist-have-more-viewers-but-house-and-fringe-rock-demos/6251:
“Earlier in the day I’d facetiously declared The Mentalist, not Fringe as the season’s new hit. The truth is, both shows are hits depending on how you want to look at it. The Mentalist won the hour in total viewers, even besting Dancing With the Stars, but while The Mentalist had more than 50% more total viewers than Fringe, Fringe still easily bested it among 18-49 year olds and when it came to 18-34 year olds, Fringe performed 100% better (3.8 rating vs. 1.9 rating).”
Apparently, it’s not the overall # of viewers that’s important, it’s if the show is doing well in the demos, which Fringe is apparently in #1 spot for. Which rocks!
