Is that dude ever going to finally turn into Superman? 9 years and we still haven't seen him wearing the red cape!

Why on earth did you quote the entire beginning of the thread?

And, I think Nielson crap is stupid and Biased. I DON'T have a box at home, and pretty sure not many of you do, either.

In fact, I don't know any body else who has it!

Someone as passionate as you are about this show should watch it on TV, Live. You may think it is stupid and biased, but it shows your ignorance. They need ratings to continue on. A prime example of a failure waiting to happen was TSCC. Neilson boxes are not how they collect data. Most people in the US do not use over-the-air transmissions anymore, so they can collect data from cable/satellite/etc. Now that we are on digital broadcasting, they can easily collect that information as well. The ratings are pretty accurate.

It was sent to death on Fridays. Do you not see what is happening? If you want this show to continue on, support it by watching it live. Throwing tantrums on this forum and using the SHIFT key with exclamat!on marks and bold isn't going bring in any revenue for the show.

Well, Anyone who solely cares about what ratings a show gets, regardless of the MERIT of the show itself is a MORON, is what I think.

And, I think the general consensus is that this Season Premiere is Awesome, with little to No negative reviews from fans! If it continues to be good, and ratings continue to be low, I certainly give a BIG Middle finger to Nielson ratings!

No offense, Rappy, but I just DON'T give a damn about Ratings, I really CAN'T trust it when (like I said) Reality shows, American Idol, Craps on CBS gets the Highest ratings!

Correct Antaris. I have high hopes for this season, but they tend to have some episodes here and there that don't continue from the previous episodes, which feel added on. As long as they keep the story entertaining and original, I don't see why they won't have a tenth season.

Jedi: You need to think a little deeper than this. When your company is paying for a show, and your return isn't as high as you would hope, you tend to cancel it, especially right now. It does not matter the quality of the show. Family Guy getting canned by Fox years ago is a prime example of this.

Ratings matter and you need to come to terms with that.

Jedi, the ratings really are not meant for US the viewers, they are not a review of the content of the show,

they are a means of measurement so shows know how much their advertising time is worth, and thus dictate how much revenue sale of that time is worth, if it is not making enough money to be profitable

It gets canceled

They kinda drifted over parts of the story. For the soldiers, I think the Orb has transported them from the past, or had them preserved inside them, but when they were younger. The reason why I think it is likely to be the latter is because Zod is not currently a General, only a Major, so they must have been copied from an earlier part of Krypton's past. Not sure why they don't have their yellow-sun abilities, but they must gain them at some point, as that lady who follows Lois from the future is one from Zod's army, and has her abilities when she comes back.

Wasn't sure if Clark actually flew either, all you saw was him jump off the Statue of Liberty and then it cut to another scene!?

Ah good, so i wasn't the only one thinking that they hadn't explained the soldiers/Zod thing.

Oh and i totally agree with Radish about Erica Durance. Just wish she wasn't so annoying sometimes :pinch:

Lois has always been annoying, in the movies and L&C. She was hot in that too, I know, different women but still hot. She's always getting in trouble and is poking her nose in stuff.

I wish they would sort out the mistakes and just out of the blue moments. Clark leaving his burnt symbol for Lois at the cage fight scene, I mean that is just stupid when he is suppose to take the bad girl away. Hold on a second while I leave this symbol then we can have a fight. It doesn't make sense at all and makes me roll my eyes at awful writing and direction. The show could be a lot better without obvious misdirection. Enough of the person gets knocked out, doesn't see it moments and the if you asked the right question or thought about it for two seconds moments you might get it Clark, Chloe, Lois etc. Terrible storytelling.

What type of info are you looking for? I mean, they have 22-ish episodes left and maybe another season. They got plenty of time I don't see the Rush.

No, not bad at all! Quality is MUCH MUCH MUCH better!!! Acting, directing, Music, mood is much better. You can tell from message boards response that it's not crap like last year's stuff.

They (CW, producers) are desperately trying to gain back fans, and I think it's Awesome enough to justify people renew their interest with this show.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By sphbecker · Posted

      All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.

    • Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By sphbecker · Posted

      You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
