TV Ratings for "Prey"

[Routh]

Discuss the ratings!

[ClarkyBoy14]

Well, here's how "Committed" ranked in total viewership on the CW for the week of Monday, October 13, 2008 - Sunday, October 19, 2008:

1. Smallville - 4.18 million
2. One Tree Hill - 3.47
3. Gossip Girl - 3.31
4. America's Next Top Model (Recap) - 3.21
5. Supernatural - 3.06
6. The Game - 1.81
7. Everybody Hates Chris - 1.79
8. 90210 (R) - 1.73
9. 90210 (R) - 1.65
10. America's Next Top Model (R) - 1.35
11. Priviliged (R) - 1.22
12. Valentine - 0.74
13. Easy Money - 0.71
14. In Harm's Way - 0.62

And here's how Smallville currently ranks in total average viewership for the season (not counting repeats and recaps):

1. Smallville (5 episodes) - 4.17
2. America's Next Top Model (7) - 3.95
3. One Tree Hill (6) - 3.38
4. Gossip Girl (6) - 3.37
5. 90210 (7) - 3.30
6. Supernatural (5) - 3.21
7. Priviliged (5) - 2.24
8. Everybody Hates Chris (3) - 1.85
t. The Game (3) - 1.85

I think that Smallville will probably have to take second this week, since ANTM had 4.44 million viewers last night. But, I think "Prey" will still do pretty well. It's coming off of a good episode, and the trailer was great. It also has the MM, so I think we'll stay above four million again.

[SparkleforSmallville]

I'm guessing 4.18 mil. again. I can't believe ANTM did so well?
I was watching Knight Rider:)

I read they stopped production on Valentine and Easy Money. I don't think it will affect CW, they've most likely already been paid for that Sunday block. Stylista did awful.

What is another Site to get the Finals? I like his Overnights, but,
I don't like scrolling thru all the comments on Marc Berman's site to get the Finals.

[smallville4r]

Well, Hello all. This is my fisrt message in the K-Site forum.
Just for you to know a little about myself I wrote it in blue color so if you don't want to read it and skip right to my asstimation, it will be easy for you.

My name is Liran, I'm 25 years old from Israel. I came to know SV in June 2005, when I suddenly watched a syndicated episode from season 2 and I really liked it. Since then I've been watching SV and on January 2006, after watching Commencement (4th season finale) I decided that SV is the best Sci-Fi show I've ever seen in my life (and for me, this episode is the best episode of the series).

Although I'm from Israel I'm still interested in the ratings SV receives in order to try and predict if the show will be renewed each and every year. From watching Season 8 I feel that SV truly deserves a Season 9 (But only if TW stays and the title of the show remains to be "Smallville").

As you can see, I chose my avatar to be the 3 stones which formed the crystal of knowledge (right in the moment of creation), and now that crystal takes place again in the plot of season 8 (and I think it's great).

To conclude I'll just say that I also don't like DO. :p

I think that this week also, SV will enjoy app. 4.15 mil viewers. However, it also means that this will be the first week this season that SV will be the CW's #1 scripted show and not overall, because ANTM had more...

Just a question, because I'm new here:
I understood that TPTB stands for: The Powers That Be.
What I haven't understand so far what PS3 stands for (The only thing that came up on my mind is Play Station 3 :lol: and I don't think that this is the answer) ? So what PS3 stands for ?

Thank you.

[SparkleforSmallville]

Hi Liran, welcome to KSite!:) I too, loved Commencement and Arrival! Glad to have you on the Ratings thread.

PS3 is what we call the 4 new Showrunners. (I think it caught on because of the Playstation),
but it stands for Brian Peterson, and the 3 S's. Todd Slavkin. Kelly Souders, Darren Swimmer.

That's an awesome Avatar.:)

[smallville4r]

Hi, SparkleforSmallville, Thank you. :)

It all makes sense now about PS3. Loved the idea behind it and probably wouldn't guess it myself.

Your avatar is also lovely. The FOS is one of the things I really like in SV, and hope to see it soon again in SV. :)

[Best Episode - 321]

What is another Site to get the Finals? I like his Overnights, but,
I don't like scrolling thru all the comments on Marc Berman's site to get the Finals.

They post them here (sitcomsonline (http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=27)) also, but usually they are posted later than pifeedback.

[Karafan1]

It will be interesting to see how well Smallville does since game 2 of the World Series was on at the same time. Alot of sports guys said that a Phillies/Rays World Series would be Fox's worst nightmare because they aren't 2 big name teams like the Cubs and Red Sox, so maybe Smalville did really good in the ratings...

[Blue Orange NY]

I'm thinking 4.21:)

[Kel-El09]

I think it will definitely be over 4mil...but I don't think it will do better than committed...unless a lot of different people who like the comics tuned in to catch a glimpse of Doomsday.

[eas]

I think that Smallville will probably have to take second this week, since ANTM had 4.44 million viewers last night. But, I think "Prey" will still do pretty well. It's coming off of a good episode, and the trailer was great. It also has the MM, so I think we'll stay above four million again.

MM wasn't in the promos, was he? I don't remember.

I think, coming off of last week's episodes, we may be slighter higher than last week. Or, at least, the same. Unless folks tuned in last week to see Clois. Lois was listed, though, as being in this episode pretty much everywhere... I think folks might be used to seeing Lois in every episode this season. A lot of people even logging onto K-site were confused as to why Lois wasn't in the episode. And those are fans who care enough to actually post here... non-message board fans have no clue what's going on.

And "ANTM" had 4.44 viewers? How did that happen :eek:

[batfinx]

I agree. I think that Prey has a good chance of doing well. The viewers went up for Instinct and then went up again for Committed. If the trend continues Prey should do well, but I don't believe ANTM got 4.44 million. That's insane :lol:

[costas22]

Difficult to predict.We don't know how much steam Committed built up for Prey.Personally i liked Committed more because it was more light hearted.But i have to admit that Prey had a good plot and kept the viewer guessing about the true killer.I believe that it will stay over the 4mil mark

[psyko69]

I'm thinking it will be over 4 million.

The internet buzz for this one is huge.

I have to wait about 3 hours before I can see it because the buzz is so big.

I'm thinking this did well!

The CW capped off Thursday with veteran Smallville (#5: 2.9/ 5), which dipped by 15 percent from one year earlier) and Supernatural (#5: 2.3/ 3). Is Robin the Boy Wonder heading to the CW Thursday next season?

What exactly does that mean? I've never really understood the ratings...

*sigh* They really don't have to tell us every week that it's dropped from a year ago. I'm pretty sure, most of the network shows have dropped this year.

It sounds like they are hinting, one of the Thurs. shows will be replaced, and they are doing better than 90210 and GG.:confused:

Anyway, is 2.9/5, better than last weeks 2.8/5? It looks to be :lol: Is that a compound fraction?

[individuall]

So the Demo's are going up? YAY! :D

I hope the overall ratings went up too! :D

Good for you Smallville :)

[Kal-alien]

no one really knows what they mean, it's kind of like trying to read palms.



*i hate how it's impossible to sound sarcastic online*

[costas22]

Are they kidding?Smallville is the top rated show for the CW and Robin should take it's place?Except if they are talking about Supernatural.

[myankskent]

Anyway, is 2.9/5, better than last weeks 2.8/5? It looks to be :lol: Is that a compound fraction?


It would appear to be better. How much, I have no idea. Also important to note is that the World Series was on last night, and even if the game didn't do a huge number, since it's with two teams that don't get a lot of national attention and it was just the first game, it should've still given Smallville more competition than it usually gets. Look out next week because if the World Series makes it to a game 7, it will air next Thursday. That will kill Smallville, along with all of the other programs on that day.

[psyko69]

I'm pretty sure that if they removed a show for Robin, it would be Supernatural.

Should move Supernatural to another night, but whatever.

Smallville and Robin back to back would probably be a solid ratings pull.

It worked for Buffy and Angel.

I love these numbers!

Martian Manhunter was not promoted at all on the CW; he's too old for their target audience, more fools them. While the fast numbers are interesting, I'll wait for finals.

[Kevin24]

Kind of shocking that America's Next top Model did so well.

[curiosity]

That's crazy they would say that.

A show about Robin will never get better ratings than Smallville.

[LexFactor]

4.22 million. Very good.

[curiosity]

Are they kidding?Smallville is the top rated show for the CW and Robin should take it's place?Except if they are talking about Supernatural.

If they were talking about Supernatural that would make more sense.

[Kevin24]

4.22 million. Very good.

That's the final ratings on Smallville?:eek:

[LexFactor]

I think that's the overnight, isn't it?

http://tvbythenumbers.com/2008/10/24/ratings/6778#more-6778

[myankskent]

Yes, that's the overnight. We may see another increase in the final rating, just like last week with "Committed".

[LexFactor]

Either way they're still good numbers for season 8. Very consistent.

[Kevin24]

Yes, consistently going up in ratings every week. I bet next week it will grow even higher because of the preview of Clark in a costume!!! I know I got chills!!!! Did anyone else?

[SparkleforSmallville]

4.22 mil. That's Awesome! It will go up in the Final, although, alot of Shows this week went down in the Finals.

----- Added 4 Minutes later -----

Yeah! I can't wait till next week's "Identity":)
Wow! these 1st 10 Episodes are flying by so fast! We still don't know for sure what will happen after the 10th Episode. Will we see repeats or will there be a hiatus till Feb 09?

[smallville4r]

This week SV is also doing great. There's a little increase from last week, and I think it's justified. I believe that the finals will go higher.


We still don't know for sure what will happen after the 10th Episode. Will we see repeats or will there be a hiatus till Feb 09?

Sadly, after the hiatus - regardless if there will be repeats or just hiatus - SV loses quite a lot of viewers, probably because lack of promotion from the CW when it gets back wth an all new episode. Episode #11 should be a great episode and the CW MUST promote it well after it gets back from the hiatus or the ratings will fall below the 4 mil (like last season), and that would be a shame.

[BadToad]

Wow, good for SV. TPTB must be doing something right, because they're doing a great job of maintaining their audience.

[myankskent]

Episode #11 should be a great episode and the CW MUST promote it well after it gets back from the hiatus or the ratings will fall below the 4 mil (like last season), and that would be a shame.

I think that it would be in the CW's best interest to show a preview for that 11th episode after the 10th episode airs, much like they did for "Justice" back in season 6.

[davidbrenton]

Darn. The world series. I guess 4.03

[individuall]

I love that it keeps going up! :D

[costas22]

Smallville is on a fantastic run so far.I will always mention the fact that in a sense we are talking about a new show.This 10 week consecutive run of episodes will help in the overall season rating.

One of the reasons that i believe Smallville loses it's audience after the Christmas break has to do with their decision to air an isolated episode in December.Many people forget to tune in for that and when they return to see the show in January they find out that they have lost part of the plot.Of course some of the December episodes were fillers but last year Gemini definitely wasn't.It restarted the Bizzaro plot.I hope that this time they don't air in isolated episodes.It really hampers the momentum of the show.

[eas]

4.22 million!!! :D :D :D

Looks "Committed" made folks come back for MORE and then some!!!

I do hope that the lack of Lois in this episode doesn't affect "Identity's" numbers.

Yeah -- I think that they're not going to do that this year. Looks like there will be a long hiatus between "Bride" and "Legion".

I wouldn't worry about that...If they watched the teaser for next week then they'll know Lois is in it! :D

:lol: I love the way you think, eas. Now we really have to root hard for the World Series not going 7 games because if that happens, I would strongly advise the CW to pull Smallville off the air for the night and show "Identity" the following week. I just don't want Smallville falling below 4 million this early in the season because everyone watches a pivotal game 7.

[Smallville6]

Yay! Go SV! 4.22 million is awsome- does anyone have the ratings for last season's episodes?

[Karafan1]

Another 4 million rating! I was suprised to see the World Series in 2nd place. So much for a Phillies/Rays world series being "Fox's worst nightmare"..

[Kevin24]

Is the 4.22 the overnight or the final numbers?

[smallville4r]

overnight.

Yeah cause the people who tune in to see an episode that's been advertised for a week certainly wouldn't be pissed off or anything.

[SparkleforSmallville]

Yay, for Craig! I want to thank him for taking up for Smallville on pifeedback.Berman was quoting stats from last year,true, but where's the props for a weekly increase in Smallville's ratings?

Craig wrote:"Is Smallville's drop really that significant considering the show lost 3-4 popular actors since last season? I think it's doing great, considering.

Comparatively, how much did Ugly Betty lose from this time last year? Why must SV get called out? It's performing better than the rest of the network."

[ClarkyBoy14]

I'm really glad to see Smallville has increased again! I think it's due in part to the positive response to last week's episode, as well as the good trailer for "Prey." Now, "Prey" was good, and "Identity" had another good trailer, so hopefully we can keep the good numbers up! And I think we will, as long as the World Series isn't on. :)

I'm glad he sticks up for it on there. Sometimes I will too, but it's mostly SN fans over there who just like to make SV look bad so that SN will look better. :(

THATS AWSOME.

[mistaguitarmasta]

Does anybody have an episode-by-episode listing of ratings for Season 8?

[bizzaroboy9]

why did the final go down??

[SparkleforSmallville]

Smallville S8 Finals:
#1 Odyssey ~ 4.34 mil & Live+7= 4.80 mil.

#2 Plastique ~ 4.18 mil. & Live+7= 4.78 mil.

#3 Toxic ~ 4.05 mil. & Live+7= 4.61 mil.

#4 Instinct ~ 4.12 mil.

#5 Committed ~ 4.18 mil.

#6 Prey ~ 4.16 mil.

Pretty consistent:)

----- Added 7 Minutes later -----

FYI, S7 Episode #6 "Lara" final rating was 4.38 mil.

[mistaguitarmasta]

how is that possible? how can the final go down? is there something im not getting?

thanks SparkleforSmallville for posting the list though.

Maybe they got the overnight numbers wrong. Cant think on anything else. :(

I still love that we're over 4mil though!! Keep up the good work SV! <3

[Fallen One]

Good job Smallville! Prey was a awesome episode and the episode deserves a good rating.

[costas22]

I have to admit that i hard time believing that it did 4,22.I thought that such a rating was 2-3 weeks away.But 4,16 is still a terrific rating.And i have to say that Identity has a very good opportunity of surpassing that.It will be pivotal for the whole identity plot,Oliver,Tess and Lois return and fans will be tuning in because Prey was a great outing.

[Kevin24]

Disappointing that it went from 4.22 down to 4.15.

[ClarkyBoy14]

It's too bad it went down, but 4.16 million is still good.

I wonder if SV was pre-empted anyway, and that's what caused the finals to go down?

[DGirlLois4Clark]

Yay for smallville getting over 4million again:D
4.15 is still good IMO.
Hopefully identity shows an improvement:)

[LaneKent-Hero]

what are the half hour breakdowns??

[Kal-ed]

Why do finals go down???

[ShelbyKent]

Disappointing that it went from 4.22 down to 4.15.

Is that normal ???

We're we up against baseball or something?

[tariksam]

Yes against game two of the world series

[JAMHEXXX]

what are the half hour breakdowns??


I don't have the exact numbers but I know that Smallville increased 8% in households from the first half hour to the next, and 12.5% in Adults 18-49 from the first to second half hour.

Supernatural went down -4.76% in households and -14.29% in adults 18-49.

[ClarkyBoy14]

Thanks for the stats, JAMHEXXX. :)

Nice to see it increased once again.

[SupaBoy]

above 4 millions still great:)

[Poweranimals]

I still don't understand why it went down. The final numbers usually go up.

[oqllcksmallville]

it went up . = )
i'm glad ,
that it's going up .
people are tuning in more and ,
there is GREAT & BIG hope for season 9 . = )

[ClarkyBoy14]

I still don't understand why it went down. The final numbers usually go up.

There could have been an error in calculation in the earlier numbers. Or Smallville may have been pre-empted by another program on some of the affiliates.

[6-Super-Man -5]

It's all good, the numbers aren't so bad, a Season Nine is still very possible! :D

[smallvillerocks45]

There could have been an error in calculation in the earlier numbers. Or Smallville may have been pre-empted by another program on some of the affiliates.

That definitely is possible.
Although I do not have a Nielson TV or TiVo, Smallville in my area started two minutes early, and was frozen for a few seconds before it began. ...So I actually missed the beginning (just a few words) of Mary's talk at the Isis Foundation.

Either way, I still don't understand how suddenly fewer viewers watched the show. Either 4.22 million viewers watched it, or they didn't, but I don't understand how DVR/TiVo numbers could be added to the 4.22 million and equal 4.16... What am I missing here? How are the final numbers calculated?

[ClarkyBoy14]

The preliminary 4.22 is Live Plus Same Day numbers, which means Nielsen takes the Live viewership as well as DVR viewership up until about 3AM EST.

This isn't the first time SV has dropped in finals...

[alejandrita439]

It's all good, the numbers aren't so bad, a Season Nine is still very possible! :D


agree with you, i want a season 9 :):):)

[celita]

how is that possible? how can the final go down? is there something im not getting?

thanks SparkleforSmallville for posting the list though.

because the earlier numbers were just an estimation of the final rating. Sometimes they make an little mistake and the true ratings are higger,and sometimes are lower. Anyway,it used to be a good estimation.

Interesting, Alot of people are not watching live Network TV this Season:

"41 shows had DVR viewership of 1 million or more viewers.

53 shows increased their Live viewership by 10% or more over the Live+7 period."

[Zeburial]

What does Live+7 means?

[SparkleforSmallville]

^^^Zeburial, it means, the rating/count for people who watched the show Live, and the +7 counts the people who recorded the show and watched it within 7 days.

those 2 are added together, hence Live + 7=how many millions watched.:)

[Luiz Fernando]

The live+7 Nielsen Numbers, 8.06 Prey make 4,75 millions, agaist 4,73 millions of Committed:

That's cool that Smallville gained more than 1 million viewers:)

Re: GG. It's a percentage thing, that I don't understand either:/

Heroes has been confusing, but it does better in the DVR ratings.
I haven't given up on Heroes yet, but I'm close.

[ClarkyBoy14]

Glad that there was another increase this week. :D

Btw, I read that Heroes hit a series low last night.

[SparkleforSmallville]

The repeat of "Prey" did 2.39 mil. in the overnights. here's what usually SV cynical Marc Berman said,
quote,Originally posted by William:
CBS - It is amazing how well "Survivor" has held up over the years.

The CW - I have always found it amazing that repeat episodes of "Smallville" nearly beat out "Gossip Girl", "90210", "One Tree Hill", I know not in the demo--but in total viewers.

Marc Berman:Posted 13 February 2009 12:25 PM
"That said, I imagine the CW will do everything it can to get Smallville back next season."

Should we frame it!:)

Thanks SparklefoSmallville for the info. Do you by any chance know how SV did in comparison to the other CW TV shows (which mostly weren't repeats)?

Thanks again!

--- Sorry, I went back and actually read your previous post. Yay! Smallville's repeat did even better than new episodes of other shows on the network.

The reason I asked (besides enjoying the good numbers SV receives) is because I was talking to someone about the merging of the WB and UPN. I told her Smallville does really well for the network, but she thought Gossip Girl was doing better. To that I responded that the only real competition Smallville ever really has is America's Next Top Model -- I just wanted the numbers to prove it.

[SparkleforSmallville]

^^We will have to get ClarkyBoy14 to post those CW comparisons. He always has those Stats:)

[smallvillerocks45]

^Okay. Thanks! :)

[ClarkyBoy14]

2.41 million viewers is very good for a repeat on the CW. :) I've said it before, but I think the CW needs to replace those Sunday night Jericho repeats with repeats of older Smallville episodes. At least those could get over one million viewers.

I'm glad Marc Berman actually had something very positive to say about Smallville.

Smallville will come in first for the week, beating NEW episodes of five other programs. :)

[smallvillerocks45]

Excellent! I love being right about Smallville. My heart would have sunk if GG had done better - or if any show had for that matter.
