Gains in DVR Ratings

Shows's ratings increase significantly with Live+7 data

Fox's new Friday night action block of "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" and "Dollhouse" has disappointed in the ratings, but the shows are racking up big gains once a full week of DVR viewership gets added into the mix.

According to Live+7 DVR data, the "Dollhouse" premiere episode's rating increased 30% after post-premiere-date viewing was included. "Dollhouse" went from a 2.0 adult demo number to a 2.6.

The show's lead-in, "Terminator," gained even more -- 36%.

By comparison, Friday's most popular show, "Ghost Whisperer," gained 21%, while fellow CBS shows "Flashpoint" (11%) and "Numbers" (14%) also rose significantly.

The "Terminator" and "Dollhouse" gains are considered very high increases for time-shifted viewing, even for a Friday night.

For the week, "Terminator" posted the largest percentage gain, followed by the CW's "90210," ABC's "Scrubs," "Dollhouse," the CW's "Privileged" and NBC's "Life."

Finally looks like it gets better. I might just make my own season at the end and cut it down to 9 episodes. With the way this season was I doubt I'd miss much doing so. Thanks for that clip :) btw we're gunna need some new posts otherwise this page pretty much belongs to us lol

^ I think it's just an ugly guy ;)

I thought it looked a little weird too though, in the other scenes he looks fine though. Besides the T-600 is a beefy ******, he'd be huge.

And yea Rappy, looks like John's about to get to 3rd base with her lol. Thata boy. Also Garret Dillahunt is probably going insane, all his scenes are in the same room, he probably recorded his pieces for the various episodes in the same day. I hope he gets let loose. Curious if he is going to start **** with Weaver, plus the Weaver, Sarah confrontation. Wonder if she knows who she is.

In light of recent ratings, it would seem that the end is near for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Have the producers anticipated this outcome and adjusted the season finale into a series finale? ? Kevinb>

MATT: In a word, no. For starters, production on the Fox series had wrapped by the time its Friday numbers started trickling in. Secondly, the final half-dozen episodes are said to be among the series' best. And thirdly, as show runner Josh Friedman so deftly pointed out at WonderCon: Why would he tie things in a neat little bow and give Fox no added impetus to greenlight a third cycle?

I record it so they get my ratings at least

I snipped this part because its the most common misconception on ratings.

The only people that count on ratings are those that have Nielsen boxes in their homes. A normal person doesn't count at all.

Is that a stupid situation? Of course, but its the way its always been. It won't change until the Nielsens for everything are so far down that they need to come up with a new system.

I know that. If you read the rest of the post you would see that I said, you need a specific box to count ;) Plus if you looked a little further down you'd see Rappys post about Live+7 data taking dvrs into consideration. Unless Nielsen has their own dvrs and that's what they were referring to. Just because they don't consider it doesn't mean no one is monitoring canadian ratings.

Live+7 doesn't matter either. They don't look at it.

They should, but they don't.

Nielsens just need to be dropped altogether.

+1. Nielsens is obsolete. It's the reason a number of genuinely good shows got canceled.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.

      You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?

      Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
