A 1.0 in 18-49 is not the same as a 1.0 at 8PM. You have fewer viewers watching TV past 11PM. Thats why advertisers care most about the 8PM-11PM window, because thats when the most people are watching TV. At the end of the day an advertiser will care about the total audience and the 18-49 audience. Smackdown did roughly 2.7 million viewers. Even though FG got a 0.1 higher 18-49 rating, because fewer people had their TV on, they actually had LESS viewers than SD. I understand this can be a complicated topic, so its understandable you keep looking bad. |

You are literally wrong. It was literally not #1 for the night in the key demo. Literally.
And the shifting of the goalposts for what the key demo is when it comes to Raw is pretty ridiculous. |

This whole thread should automatically be linked to your profile so people can see how uneducated on the matter you are. You just read 1.0 and think "oh 1.0 is bigger than 0.9, so 1.0 must be better". But its not. If you think Family Guy had more viewers 18-49 than Smackdown, well that would just precious. |

Also no shifting about RAW.
The problem is you dont have all the information. You go to one website and you think you know everything. There are more details to understand. Ive never claimed WWE does the best rating, I always talk about viewership. And when you look further into the numbers you would see for men 18-49 RAW more than doubles the rating (not viewership) that Love and Hip Hop does, but Love and Hip Hop more than doubles the women 18-49 rating that RAW does. This week it netted out better for Hip Hop because a lot of people were watching election coverage, and that rating skews more towards men. So RAW will be more impacted because its show relies more heavily on men. |

In terms of viewers. RAW did 3.6 million at 8PM and Love and Hip Hop did 2.6 million viewers at the same time.

More kids and men watch Raw than Love and Hip Hop.
POP OPEN THE CHAMPAGNE! They can keep hitting new milestone low ratings for a couple more years. As long as they're beating Love and Hip Hop in total viewers, it's all good. No reason to put forth any effort. |

Didn't know they were sub-3 in 97. I started watching in 98, though.
You're welcome, WWE. |

You keep focusing on the one show. They beat everything in viewership. They beat LAHH in ratings in every demo other than women under 49. They are also steadily beating the NBA. Is that impressive or is NBA just some random show. They have two nights a week where they draw more viewers than anything else on cable. Is that something to be happy about? When you beat everyone on your night, or even say I take your elementary understanding of ratings and say they are top 5 of everything on cable on the nights they are on, would you be happy with that? If you are USA and you have no other shows that track on cable other than one hour of Suits, would you be happy with FIVE HOURS of most watched programming? You're so fixated on your narrative that WWE sucks that you are ignoring the facts. And what you think are facts to show WWE is struggling is you saying they are #2 or #3 among 150+ shows that night. You dont know how much I laugh at your posts on this subject. |

Looking at that chart, the real drop was from 2001 to 2003-04. Since then I would guess the numbers have been pretty steady with cable as a whole. More and more people are going to other sources to consume entertainment. Thats not going to change anytime soon. There are also nuances to the data. For example, are those numbers factoring in LIVE +7. In 1999 that really wasnt a thing, now its huge.
On top of that, you have shorter attention spans, so things like You Tube are used which didnt exists in 1999 as a means for watching TV. We know WWE has one of the most popular You Tube channels. As people get more and more accustomed to seeing ads on You Tube, WWE will be able to turn that into a massive revenue stream. |

Season 5 premiere did 17.3 million viewers Season 6 premiere did 14.6 million viewers down approx 15% YoY. Down roughly 10% YTD YoY. Amazing numbers, but your statement is a little off. But good try little buddy. |

I just love how CyNick goes on about WWE ad revenues and shit when no one is questioning wether they are making money. The simple fact is WWEs ratings are declining at a steady basis and you cant argue that.

Season 2 average viewers: 6.90 million Season 3 average viewers: 10.40 million Season 4 average viewers: 13.30 million Season 5 average viewers: 14.40 million But yeah, you wanna pick one episode that "proves" your point instead of looking at the entire year. It's the same thing that happens when Raw goes up for one week and you sarcastically ask everyone "does this mean things are good again?" Just like when the average temperature is higher one year than it was the last it proves global warming is a myth. Good try, you dumb fuck. |

I always find it funny when someone comes into a thread on a wrestling message board and takes the time to tell people how they shouldn't be wasting time discussing something trivial in a thread on a wrestling message board.

Why is this thread still going on? Seriously, you people are retarded for talking to Cynick still. Of course it is bad to have less viewers than beforr. Everyone knows this but you are all being trolled for like 2 months in the SAME thread.

But if we want to keep going back and forth with him I don't understand what the problem is.
I hate the notion that you obviously think you're too cool Ruien. Who fucking cares if we want to fuck around and argue with CyNick. It's OUR spare time we'll use it how we want. Just because you don't get it doesn't mean it's not fun to us. |

It's the same as sports talk radio, it's a waste of time and you argue the same things but you do it for the banter. People like Ruien like to be "that guy" because he's so cool and well adjusted. Who fucking cares, it's a wrassling forum, we're shooting the shit. |
