I mean, I can't guarantee you anything, but it seems like he's not packing in the fans. Several weeks of Rock's appearances actually lost viewers. While there is no direct correlation between buys and ratings, it's pretty good indicator.
Now, cue someone who tells me I use buyrates to determine what I like or dislike, or someone who insists that since I just said that, I hate the Rock. or something similar. It's hard to track the shit people throw at me from out of left field.

You're a little like me Kane Knight. (Quote of the year.) We predict things people are going to post before they even have a chance to post them. It's our way of weakening our opposition by being condescending and dismissing their argument. What we're really posting however is that we fear what the feedback is going to be in the next post, and we already have a good idea of what it's going to be, and we already know ahead of time that we don't have a good counter-argument, so what do we do? We just patronize and insult the argument so we can save-face and we can only hope we put so much venom in our post that no one will DARE even try to speak the argument we fear.
That's a sign of someone who has spent way too much time on the internet. I understand.
