Members Darcy Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 DVR viewing is counted in the ratings if it's a Nielsen Household. SON reports Live and Same Day Ratings which to my understanding means if the show is watched on the DVR within 24 hours of being recorded than it is counted in the numbers reported here (if it's a Nielsen household).

Members marceline Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 ABC doesn't count Soapnet in the ratings. They can't. It's two different networks. And as somebody said last week (I'm paraphrasing) advertisers looking to buy time on ABC don't care about SoapNet's ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jess Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 You know I'm getting rid of the tier that has soapnet on it too The only reason I got that tier was because of soapnet and once Forbes is gone there won't be any reason for me to watch soapnet anymore. I've already told them to drop the tier at the end of this billing cycle. It will save me something like $6 a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 Thanks. He's not mine. I gacked the icon from somebody on LJ. I couldn't resist. So much cuteness mixed with an understated viciousness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 AMC has been better somewhat, but the show as a whole hasn't been all that great. They've just traded Babe is love for Greenlee is love, and until that stops, the show ain't gonna be better.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Southofnowhere Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 PREACH it Sister PREACH it! I'm sure Zendall fans are dreading what's coming up for Kendall in a few weeks? She's going to be down on her knees begging meanlee for forgiveness! Also what's the deal-eo with Zach being Mean's sidekick? Get the girl a gay sidekick or bring back that puppy she used to have , that's if she's didn't eat the poor thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 Southofnowhere Plus with what's upcoming: ANOTHER story about Ryan's bodily fluids, like 3 damn years wasn't enough of that. So AMC doesn't deserve good ratings till they write CONSTANT good stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members LeClerc Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 I am really starting to worry that affiliates are going to start dumping AMC or moving it to the morning like what happened with GL. Is that possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
