Nielsen Fast Nationals From Tuesday, July 17, 2007

Ratings-Tm-3-56 Tuesday night's ratings. NBC comes in first and second and third with Singing Bee and America's Got Talent and Law and Order: SVU having 3.6/10 and 3.4/10 and 3.0/9. Coming in forth was ABC’s Just for Laughs (Special) having 3.0/10. Although you could say that it was in third, but it was repeat. I don't count repeats. I report them, but I don't count them.

My DVR is filling up quick, but I rarely have time to watch things. I end up watching the shows that are about to be erased instead of the shows that I like the most. Do you see what this site has done to me. I have become a slave. Stick around after the jump, master :-) BTW, sorry about the wrong day being reported in yesterday's ratings -- yes, I have corrected it...

How do I read these ratings?

A Nielsen rating may look like this:

8pm - NBC - TVgasm The TV Show - 10.0/18

Focus on the 10.0/18. The RATING, 10.0, on the left represents the actual number of households that watched a show. One rating point equals 1,102,000 households. The SHARE, 18, on the right represents the show's proportion of the total households watching television at that time.

For example, TVgasms TV Show has a 10 rating/18 share. That means 11,020,000 households are tuned in to the show and 18% of all the households with a TV turned on are watching that show.

Ratings and Share are customarily broken down for various DEMOs -- a demographic grouping of viewers, like 18-49 adults or 2-12 children or 18-34 women, etc. Advertisers, and therefore networks, covet the 18-49 adult demo, and so tend to concentrate on that number.
