[Arithmetician]

Meh indeed. Also toon disney just gets worse and worse, only pinky and the brain will revive it and the removal of jetix.

[Space Cadet]

Hey John, why don't you make a big thread to show CN's ratings each week? By doing it that way, you don't have to make individual threads for each day.

[Nexonius]

Well, this is a thread for only ratings at ******* Network (CN), nothing else. A thread that'll end all separate ratings threads related to CN.





Okay, so what do we got here?

[marcnbrian]

These are total day ratings.....can't really tell all that much except who's in 1st, 2nd, 3rd overall. They don't tell the success stories at all.....for example, HAUNTING HOURS won its time slot vs both Nick and Disney in Kids 9-14, boys 9-14 and boys 6-11. and that the Camp Lazlo ep that followed was the top show of the entire day in boys.

[Lazerboy5000]

Well, Nick & Disney are sharing the top stop, while CN is in 3rd, and Toon Disney is in last.
Doesn't suprise me too much.

Well, you can include other ratings like that in here as well.

Wow, I didn't expect Haunting Hour to do that well.:eek:

[Nexonius]

I guess live action stays on The Nothing, Cartoon Whosists, The Whatchamacallit Network, The Jimmy/Blake/Emily Osment Network, The Ratings Network, The No Cartoon Network, The Disney/Nick wannabe channel. Turner Kids, here we come.:sad:





Just kidding. Not really.

[Jeff Harris]

I don't really understand this whole "Turner Kids" name change for Network. I mean, if anything, Time Warner is actively trying to distance itself from Ted Turner and, in the process, Turner Broadcasting. Turner Broadcasting is based in Atlanta rather than New York or Los Angeles, which is probably why they tend to get treated like a stepchild.

A name change isn't happening in the forseeable future. At least not this year (Turner already announced plans to rename Court TV to truTV and WTBS-17 in Atlanta to Peachtree TV locally). But it wouldn't be Turner Kids if such a name change were to take place.

And it's not.

At least, not yet.

Maybe they could just keep the current black and white CN logo and change the "Cartoon" text to "Children's"?

[TheVofSteel]

Oh yeah Pogo would be a good name to rebrand to as well (not saying I want that to happen, but that's the direction they're heading toward.)

We've already got three live-action series on our hands: Out of Jimmy's Head, Goosebumps, and Kamen Rider. if you're not going to be 24/7/365 cartoons until the end of time, just change the name already and make Boomerang more available.

[veemonjosh]

We've already got three live-action series on our hands: Out of Jimmy's Head, Goosebumps, and Kamen Rider.

Except Goosebumps will probably only be on The Network during October, and we have yet to see how Kamen Rider will turn out.

Out of Jimmy's Head, however, is the real offender here.

[Blackstar]

Even one live action series on Cartoon Network is one too many, IMHO.

Anyways, if CN wants to change it's name (and it looks like they may have too eventually, lest they end up looking like hypocrites), then why not change it "Childrens' Network" or "Cool Network" so they could at least keep the CN logo. Lately, I've just been calling it "Crap Network".

[Rolling Cloud]

and we have yet to see how Kamen Rider will turn out.

I hope it turns out good! ^_^

[D Dubbs]

Out of Jimmy's Head, however, is the real offender here.

But it's the only show of those three that's actually relating to cartoons. Therefore it's the only show of those three that's justified to air on CN, IMO.


Lately, I've just been calling it "Crap Network".

That's fine, but do you need to say it in every post that deals with Cartoon Network? Isn't it enough to have it in your signature? It's getting rather redundant.

EDIT: Well, it appears that you've changed your signature. So much for that...

[William C. Maune]

Even one live action series on Cartoon Network is one too many, IMHO.

Even assuming that's the case, I don't see a need to change the name of the whole network. It remains to be seen what the future will bring, but considering it took them almost two years since the premiere of the live-action movies to launch an original series involving live-action (which does still use animation), I don't see live-action overtaking the network anytime soon. Things just don't seem to be moving anywhere near that fast.

I do wish the marketing folks would promote Out of Jimmy's Head as a hybrid series instead of as a "live-action" series though.

[Blackstar]

That's fine, but do you need to say it in every post that deals with Cartoon Network? Isn't it enough to have it in your signature? It's getting rather redundant.

It's not my signature anymore. I changed it tonight. And I've only said it twice since I made it my sig. Geez! I need to check my calendar. I didn't realize that this was "Jump on Blackstar Night". :mad:

[D Dubbs]

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. But it does feel like nearly every CN-related post you make is about how CN is going down the drain, and it is getting fairly tiresome.


I do wish the marketing folks would promote Out of Jimmy's Head as a hybrid series instead of as a "live-action" series though.

Yes, I agree. While I think that the premise of the show is neat and has a lot going for it, I cringe whenever I hear or see "Cartoon Netowrk's first live-action series."

[Blackstar]

Fine. I'll just shut up about it, then. Truth be told, I'm tired of discussing it as much as folks here are apparently tired of hearing it.

[Road Runner]

Yay! CN's ratings keep dropping and dropping! Soon, they'll HAVE TO listen to us, or face a shutdown! The ratings hopefully will drop to the double digits.

[The Nameless]

...or face a shutdown!

Sounds like you want that to happen. The chances of CN shutting down are as slim as a piece of hay. More likely they will make some, *ahem* better programming decisions (i.e. less live action, less Nickelodeon copycatting).

You don't see NBC shutting down because they've been fourth place in the ratings for three seasons in a row.

‘MNF,’ College Football Games Drive Net Past USA In Weekly Ratings

By Mike Reynolds -- Multichannel News, 9/19/2007 10:59:00 AM

ESPN, buoyed by its first season-opening Monday Night Football doubleheader, the last regular-season game between baseball rivals New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox and college football action, easily led the basic-cable ratings competition last week,


The total sports network tackled a 3.3 household ratings average in primetime the week of Sept. 10 through Sept. 16, a full point higher than second-place USA Network’s 2.3 mark, according to a Disney ABC Cable Networks analysis of Nielsen Media Research data. In addition to the strength of the WWE Raw franchise on Sept. 10, the characters network scored with the season-ending shows of Monk and Psych on Sept. 14 that drew over 5 million and 4.2 million viewers, respectively.





Drama proponent TNT, which benefited from a basic-cable series record 9.2 million viewers who tuned in the third-season finale of Kyra Segdwick series The Closer (http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6477664.html), plus 5.2 million more for lead-out Saving Grace on Sept. 10, and Disney Channel were tied for third with a 2.1 average.





There was another sizable gap to the next group in the Nielsen heat: Fox News Channel, Lifetime Television, TBS and HGTV were knotted in fifth place, each with a 1.3 average for the week.





FX was ninth at a 1.2, a step ahead of the 1.1 average for Cartoon Network, A&E Network, Court TV and Hallmark Channel.


The first game of ESPN’s Sept. 10 MNF doubleheader, the Baltimore Ravens against the Cincinnati Bengals (http://www.multichannel.com/blog/620000462.html), was the top show for the week, attracting 11.1 million viewers. The nightcap between the Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers was third for the week with 8.5 million viewers and fifth for basic cable year to date. However, that game marked the low Nielsen point with its MNF franchise (http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6478714.html?q=Monday+Night+Football).

[TheFZAtUGSOnline]

It seems that MNF "Tackled" CN in the raitings, OUCH!

[BCVM22]

It seems that MNF "Tackled" CN in the raitings, OUCH!

I want you to consider the typical viewing demographic for Monday Night Football. Then I want you to consider the typical viewing demographic for Cartoon Network Monday night programming.

Once you work that out, tell me if you really think CN is worried that Monday Night Football scored its usual monstrous ratings.

[Draft]

C'mon people, let's not be idiotic

Of course Football would cream anythign in the ratings(It creamed FG and Cold Case Sunday).

We actually get the same ratings as A&E, Court TV, and sort of the FX Channel? Somewhat impressive

So, those shows were CN's top rated show on Saturday? Wow, none of Toonami's shows are even on there. Do you think Cartoon Network may phase out Toonami and put there focus on their Saturday morning block?

Edit: Never mind. I see that it says 7a-1p, so it's not including Toonami's ratings.

You know, these ratings really don't tell me much. I'm somewhat curious how Out of Jimmy's Head and Goosebumps did in the ratings, but unfortunately most of the ratings posted in this thread are just overall ratings so we can't tell what's a hit and what's a bomb.

[Andrew T. Hingson]

No actually that's just the Saturday morning ratings. Those are listed to compare how every Saturday morning portion of youth oriented venues holds up against eachother. Usually Nick dominates that time frame. CN does alright then but Naruto's ratings probably still puts those shows to shame.

Ah I see you noticed.

Naruto probably still gets at least 3.5 compared to those if not more. But not much more given that it's not on the top 30 for cable these days. Though it could be finally cracking 4.0 with 9-14 and we wouldn't know it because those ratings don't show up when Nick and Disney shows as well as some terestial TV shows keep it out of the top cable rankings by having even higher numbers. Yeah, higher than a million.

‘HSM2’ Pushes Network To Industry Record 3.2 Million-Viewer Average

By Linda Moss -- Multichannel News, 10/2/2007 10:20:00 AM

Still enjoying the lift provided High School Musical 2 (http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6469978.html?q=What%27s+On), Disney Channel zoomed to the No. 1 spot in the primetime ratings in the third quarter, amassing the biggest audience in cable history on record for that three-month period, officials said Tuesday.
Disney Channel averaged a record-breaking 3.2 million total viewers, 19% ahead of second-ranked USA Network, which averaged 2.7 million viewers, according to a Disney ABC Cable Networks analysis of Nielsen Media Research data.
Disney Channel’s third-quarter viewership was cable's second largest for any quarter ever, behind only sister service ESPN averaged 3.3 million in the fourth quarter last year, when it rode the strength of its college football coverage and its first campaign carrying the National Football League’s Monday Night Football franchise (http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6402949.html?display=Search+Results&text=%2A&q=Monday+Night+Football),
During the third quarter, Disney Channel’s Aug. 17 debut of High School Musical 2 was the No. 1 cable telecast of all-time in total viewers, with 18.6 million, a total reflecting live, plus seven-day measurement. In its premiere telecast (http://www.multichannel.com/blog/1800000180/post/650013265.html) that night, HSM2 garnered 17.2 million watchers.
Disney Channel posted a 2.5 household rating in the third quarter, up 9% from the same quarter last year, while second-place USA registered a 2.1 rating in primetime for the quarter, a 5% dip.
TNT was in third place in the primetime horse race, with a 2.0 rating, down 9% from the year-ago period. ESPN was fourth, with a 1.7 rating, flat compared with the 2006 span.
There was a tie for fifth place, between TBS and Lifetime Television, each with a 1.3 rating. TBS was flat versus last year, while Lifetime was down 13%. They were followed by Fox News Channel, with a 1.2 rating, off 8%.
Cartoon Network, HGTV, Court TV and Hallmark Channel each garnered a 1.1 primetime rating. Cartoon dropped 21% from the year-ago quarter, while Hallmark Channel slipped 15%. Court TV and HGTV were up 38% and 10%, respectively.
A&E Network, Nick at Nite, FX, Spike TV, Discovery Channel and Sci Fi Channel each averaged a 1.0 rating. A&E, FX and Discovery Channel were all flat. Nick at Nite dropped 17%, while Sci Fi Channel was down 18%.
In the third quarter the biggest primetime gainers, all up 100%, were CNBC, Discovery Times, ESPNews, The Golf Channel, and The Military Channel. CNBC, Discovery Times, ESPNews, Golf Channel and The Military Channel all of which grew 100% to a 0.2. Fuse also recorded a 100% advance to a 0.1 mark.
The big losers in the quarter were: SoapNet, down 33% to a 0.4; ESPN Classic, a 50% decrease to a 0.1; GSN, off 50% to a 0.2; TV Guide Network, a 33% drop to a 0.2; and The Weather Channel, down 33% to a 0.2.

[Space Cadet]

It's amazing how CN's ratings have gone down, when three years back, they used to get 700,000 2-11 total day viewers consistently. And they used to beat the Disney Channel many times for the number two spot.

It's more depressing than amazing. :sad:

Yeah, but I think at that point, many of Disney Channel's popular shows(like Suite Life of Zack and Cody) weren't there yet.

And even when CN was in third place, their ratings overall were higher than now. For example:

[Nexonius]

is adult swim and toonami doing good at least?



That's just Cartoon Network's ratings. Adult Swim starts at 11PM.

[Eddy]

Why do I have the feeling CN is going to try to fix this problem with more live-action movies and TV shows?

[Pomegranate]

Even though Shaun the Sheep, a British short series, now made the top 10 among the 2-11 and 6-11 demographics, I hope this doesn't mean we return to the age when foreign cartoons(anime) dominated our own home-grown cartoons in ratings and popularity, otherwise this could possibly mean the end of USAnimation as we know it:sad: !

[Nexonius]

US Animation isn't going anywhere.

[Pomegranate]

US Animation isn't going anywhere.

Gee, I don't know about that! I mean, Disney Channel is now dominating every other children's networks in ratings and popularity and they air more live-action than they do cartoons during peak viewing hours and hell, even Life With Derek, a Canadian live-action series, made the top 10 a few weeks ago.

You know, if I were to have children at all, I'd probably teach them to have an appreciation for USAnimation and toys(no, I don't mean Bratz dolls) before they could ever watch foreign animation, esp. anime, live-action stuff or Jetix, so my children won't become a part of the rabid USAnimation-hating, Jetix-worshipping, anti-nostalgia, HSM-watching anime fanatic crowd.

US animation is going nowhere.

Jetix-worshipping? Who worship's Jetix?

I don't know about worshipping, but I used to like Jetix when it used to be on ABC Family.

I must say that CN did pretty good on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. What was airing on Sunday that did so well for CN?


There was a Courage marathon on Sunday. Just goes to show you that the show still has an audience even though it's seven years old. Monday was the airing of a Scooby-Doo DTV movie, so that's probably why the 2-11 ratings were high.

[veemonjosh]

Why do I have the feeling CN is going to try to fix this problem with more live-action movies and TV shows?

And watch as the ratings plummet!

[Master Toon]

I know John Dorian usually does this, but here are the ratings for last week and a little bit of this week:

I must say that CN did pretty good on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. What was airing on Sunday that did so well for CN?


This is probably the most commonly asked question but where are these ratings coming from? Is there a website where I can view these?

This is the place where you can see them: http://www.cynopsis.com/content/view/26/38/

Media Life Magazine also posts the kids ratings although Cynopsis covers it more than them.

[Ykwia]

Wow...

I liked it when Disney Channel was the underdog. Now it's forcing other kids networks to scramble and beat them at their own game.

Here's the 6-11 ratings for Saturday morning two weeks ago:

I must say, Ben 10 is doing very well. It almost beat of Tak and the Power of Juju. Pokemon: D&P and and Code Lyoko are holding their own as well.

[D Dubbs]

Take a look at the ratings a week beforehand (September 29th):

DISNEY CHANNEL 5.4/28 Avg. (7a-1p)

So when Disney airs live-action, CN gets totally whooped. But when Disney airs cartoons, they do worse than CN. Granted, Disney's Saturday morning lineup is targeted to a younger age group, but you can sort of see why CN is straying towards live-action.

[Master Moron]

So, should I root for Cartoon Network to succeed or fail? I mean, yeah, I watch Naruto and One Piece, which is certainly more than I watch on Disney Channel, which is nothing. But, those are really the only two shows I watch on Cartoon Network. I don't care about all the live action crap they're airing now. So, should I root for the ratings to get higher just so those two shows succeed or should I root for the ratings to take a dive just so they learn their lesson about airing live action?

And watch as the ratings plummet!

We can only hope and pray that happens.

Yeah, but barely.

Even the most experienced industry users of TV ratings data are liable to forget one crucial point -- the numbers aren't real. Like any survey data, Nielsen ratings are subject to statistical errors of various kinds, as well as issues of cooperation rates, respondent compliance, and so on. They are merely estimates, after all. As such, it doesn't make much sense to present them beyond one decimal point, because this implies a degree of accuracy that doesn't exist. Also, small differences in ratings numbers often are not statistically significant. Claiming victory with a 10.4 share over a competitor's 10.2 share may not be only trivial, it may be just plain wrong.

[D Dubbs]

I'm aware that Nielsen isn't always accurate. But look at the difference in ratings from the shows that aired before and after Out of Jimmy's Head:

Cartoon Cartoon Top 5 (60 min) 1.9
Out of Jimmy's Head 3.1
Pokemon: Diamond & Pearl 2.5

Out of Jimmy's Head increased CN's viewer ship by 1.2. Then it dropped down 0.6 when D&P aired. Those are some pretty steep variations and I doubt they're just coincidence.

Eh, notice how the ratings increase with the second airing of Pokemon and stay constant with both airings of Ben 10. They're in the same level as OOJH. I was mostly comparing it to those, where the difference is vaguely significant.

It still suck that Out of jimmy's head is getting a 3.1 rating(IMO).

[Wanted]

What's Cartoon Network's gripe? They're still #3 overall.

[Space Cadet]

What's Cartoon Network's gripe? They're still #3 overall.

They want to be number one or close to it.

[Zach]

They want to be number one or close to it.

Well, they won't be as long as they persist with their terrible programming choices.

[Gokou Ruri]

What's Cartoon Network's gripe? They're still #3 overall.

3/3 = Last place. Not many companies will be happy with that

[Space Cadet]

3/3 = Last place. Not many companies will be happy with that

Well, technically they're 3/4 when you count Toon Disney.

[macattack]

Toon Disney isn't available enough and has enough ratings to be the fourth player, though . . . it's really competing against Nicktoons Network and Boomerang right now.

[Antiyonder]

Toon Disney isn't available enough and has enough ratings to be the fourth player, though . . . it's really competing against Nicktoons Network and Boomerang right now.

How's it doing in ratings compared to those networks?

[Wanted]

3/3 = Last place. Not many companies will be happy with thatI meant out of all the cable channels. If they broadened their focus to other ratings groups, would they have to worry so much about the ratings crunch?

And Disney may as well start airing ads... it would be a lucrative business for them.

Wow, CN did great on Sunday. Not enough to beat Nick and Disney Channel, but it's one of their best rating days in a while. Those Halloween specials/movies airing was a good idea on their part. Monday and Tuesday didn't do so bad either.

[Freedom Fighter]

Well, Out of Jimmy's Head didn't do as good this week. But it looks like for some reason Cynopsis left out Code Lyoko and the other Ben 10 episode. Whoops.Just remembered... they ran "Secret of the Omintrix: Alternate Alien Version" at 10 am last Saturday, so no two regular Ben 10s or Lyoko.

[D Dubbs]

Oh, yeah. I forgot about the Alternate Alien Version.

In any case, it looks like it did pretty good. 2.9 is a respectable score.

Cartoon Network scared up some pre-Halloween ratings over the weekend with its two-day Goosebumps marathon, which ran on both Saturday and Sunday, October 27 and 28 (10a-9p), concluding with a special pop-up version of the movie The Haunting Hour: Don't Think About It. The programming event upped the network by +54% among Tweens 9-14 versus the same time last year, as well as +30% with K6-11 and +18% with the K2-11 demo.

So there you go. Goosebumps did well all around, as expected. But it really did good with tweens. It also got above-average ratings from 6-11 as well.

I think that gives CN their answer about their live-action "experiment."

Yep, they sure beat Nickelodeon and Disney Channel in the ratings war.:shrug: That what those networks get for airing more titles than marathons.

Besides, would the ratings have been this high if it was on at a different month (A non Halloween month)?

[StellaMagic]

How is Storm Hawks doing overall?

Even if they didn't beat Nick and the Disney Channel in the ratings, they still doubled their audience than usual. That's pretty good.

[D Dubbs]

Eh, kind of hard to tell. Unless a show airs on Saturday mornings, we aren't really able to tell how shows are doing individually.

[TheVofSteel]

Do you have to say something about Storm Hawks in every thread....

Hmm, this kind of explains some things. You can see why Lyoko, GX, and classic Pokemon are all getting the boot. I mean, jeez, D&P gets three times the ratings as classic Pokemon.

Chowder and OOJH also are doing considerably well for airing so early in the morning.

[CyberCubed]

That's actually pretty interesting in Pokemon's case. It pretty much proves that the change in voice cast didn't cause any harm to the series in the long run.

I remember Battle Frontier getting good ratings too, so it seems like Pokemon still has a bright future ahead of it on CN.

[Jave]

You know, the pokemon ratings make perfect sense. After watching the Advance seasons and beyond, it's kinda hard to go back and watch the first seasons, since it makes you notice how unlikable the characters were back then.

So, as expected, Nick wins every timeslot. CN comes second the most times, and ToonDisney is always in last. That's to be expected, with them having the least exposure.

CN comes closest to Nick at 10:30, with Ben 10, although their highest rated show is the 10:00 airing of Pokemon.

Disney Nips ESPN In Primetime Ratings

SpongeBob Telefilm Drives Nick To Easy Total-Day Win

By Mike Reynolds -- Multichannel News, 11/20/2007 11:32:00 AM

Sister services Disney Channel and ESPN ranked first and second in the primetime ratings last week, with USA Network nipping at their heels.
Disney Channel averaged a 2.3 household rating from Nov. 12 through Nov. 18, a 0.1 point better than the total sports network, which had the week’s most-watched show, the Nov 12 Monday Night Football matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers, which tackled 8.96 million viewers.
“Characters” network USA was another 0.1 point back with a 2.1 mark, according to a Disney ABC Cable Networks analysis of Nielsen Media Research data.
TBS and TNT were fourth and fifth with a 1.5 and a 1.4, respectively, while Nick at Nite’s 1.3 average was good for the sixth spot in primetime last week.
Rounding out the top 10: Fox News Channel and MTV, both with a 1.2; and Spike TV and Hallmark Channel, each with a 1.1 average.
Finishing just a shade out of the top 10 were A&E Network, Lifetime Television, CNN, FX, Court TV and Cartoon Network, with each posting a 1.0 mark for the span.
Nickelodeon, buoyed by the Nov. 12 telefilm debut of SpongeBob Atlantis SquarePantis that attracted 8.76 million viewers, easily controlled the total-day metric with a 1.9 household average. Disney, at a 1.3, Nick at Nite, at a 1.2; and USA, ESPN and TNT, all with a 1.0 mark, completed the top five.
The premiere of the aforementioned film, which notched the network’s best mark (http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6501297.html) for an original movie since July 2001, when Rugrats: All Growed Up drew 11.2 million viewers, was not the only SpongeBob winner for Nick. An encore of the movie, plus presentations of series installments accounted for 12 of the top 15 shows last week, according to the Disney ABC analysis.
Only MNF and USA’s pair of WWE Raw hours on Nov. 12 broke through the lovable sponge’s squeeze on primetime.




Nov. 15 ratings: Ouch.

CN did really good on Wednesday with the Ben 10 marathon and live-action movie premiere. Thursday and Friday did alright too.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Wow. They beat Nick in 9-14 on Wednesday. Keep up the good work, CN.

They really should just focus on their action shows. Ben 10 and Naruto marathons get them their best ratings, aside from Ed, Edd n' Eddy marathons.

Well, Chowder is obviously doing really good, and I have a feeling that the Foster's marathon would have done better had it not been on Thanksgiving (you can see that Nick and Disney also took a hit on that day as well).

IMO, a balanced combination of comedy and action would make an ideal Cartoon Network.

Apparently Ben 10 marathons only get good ratings on Wednesdays...

In terms of ratings, this was probably the worst Saturday and Sunday CN has had in a while.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

2 Ben 10 marathons in 4 days might have been a tad much for viewers.

That's what I'd guess.

It does seem a tad extreme, so viewers might not have wanted to watch so much Ben 10 again.

Did Nick or Disney have anything that would have drawn kids away?

Another mediocre weekend for Cartoon Network. Perhaps the whole marathon thing is wearing out.

[Umandsf]

They should really take a week off, fill their line-up with what they know was/is popular, and see what happens to ratings.

Yes, sometimes they do go a bit overboard...... I think they just wanted to keep doing it until it fails (milk it out as much as they can) just for fun though, because there isn't another reason for that.:shrug:


They should really take a week off, fill their line-up with what they know was/is popular, and see what happens to ratings.

In a perfect world that would happen. But you see we have CN so it's not a perfect world. JK I'm not that negative:p (due to the fact they still have Toonami). I don't see them ever doing that though.:sweat:

[Tech]

2 Ben 10 marathons in 4 days might have been a tad much for viewers.

I don't think so, Nick has about 3 spongebob marathons every week.

[Umandsf]

Maybe, but the difference is that Spongebob is an excellent show.

[Darklordavaitor]

I don't think so, Nick has about 3 spongebob marathons every week.
But Nick virtually IS a SpongeBob marathon, with the occasional Drake & Josh.

By Steve Donohue -- Multichannel News, 12/18/2007 2:33:00 PM

Growing Up Wired

Kids have embraced new media, but they have not abandoned linear TV or 30-second spots

by George Winslow -- Multichannel News, 12/31/2007



If the future can be found in today’s children, their habits are already confirming and contradicting some long-held notions about the future of television.
“Kids are very comfortable consuming media and video on all platforms,” said Paul Condolora, senior vice president and general manager for Cartoon Network New Media. “They live in an on-demand world and expect to find their shows not just on TV but everywhere else — online, mobile, VOD, etc.”
Yet, their enthusiasm for on-demand media hasn’t dampened their willingness to watch advertising.
“We’ve all heard these predictions that young people won’t want to watch commercials,” said Jack Wakshlag, chief research officer at Turner Broadcasting System. “Anyone who has kids, knows that’s a myth. They love them. They watch them over and over.”
Colleen Fahey Rush, MTV Networks executive vice president of research, agrees. She said the vast majority of viewing by younger demos is still linear. “Among the 12 to 34 demo in [digital video recorder] homes, only 10% of the TV viewing is time-shifted. That means 90% is linear.”
In fact, TV viewing remains at record levels for younger viewers, said Ron Geraci, senior vice president of Nickelodeon Research. “TV still accounts for the vast majority of their media consumption, with about 25 hours a week for the 2 to 11 age group,” he said. “Their TV consumption [like the rest of the population] continues to grow.”
Nor is there a very high propensity to fast forward through ads. “The new C3 ratings [that Nielsen launched this fall that track viewing of ads in programs up to 3 days after their live debut] for Nickelodeon are virtually the same as the live rating,” Fahey Rush said.
Even better, the newer platforms seem to enhance viewing of the linear channel. Juliette Morris, senior vice president of partner market, content distribution and marketing at MTVN, cites several examples where making content available online or on demand has increased the ratings of the linear network.
In August, for example, Nickelodeon set up a special video-on-demand area with episodes of Drake & Josh and sneak peaks at iCarly and other new shows.
That helped boost Nickelodeon’s VOD streams to over 19 million, a 100% increase from a year earlier, and increased TV ratings. “iCarly had one of our biggest premieres ever, and Drake & Josh saw a 100% increase in their time slot,” Morris said. “The newer platforms are clearly additive.”
Condolora agrees. He said Cartoon expects over 2 billion game plays on their Web sites Cartoonnetwork.com and Toonamijetstream.com this year and over 300 million video streams. The average unique user spent 77 minutes a month on the CartoonNetwork.com site in July 2007.
Usage is also growing for video on demand, where kids programming ranks in the top three genres along with music and subscription VOD fare from premium networks.
Cartoon had 6.4 million on-demand views in August, while Boomerang’s VOD offering had 3.6 million in July, up 71% from a year earlier.
At Nickelodeon, Geraci said that they expect to have some 200 million on-demand views this year, double the 2006 figures, and online game plays will top 1 billion. In September, all their kids and family sites had about 23 million visitors, who spent on average 90.3 minutes.
That growth is also opening up opportunities for newer networks.
CJ Olivares, general manager of Fuel TV, which is in about 24 million homes, said that network’s target demo of 12- to 24-year-old male viewers are particularly heavy users of online and mobile media.
Users are downloading about 1 million of Fuel’s podcasts a month and their seven podcast channels on iTunes all rank in the top 100, with three in the top 20.
Yet, Fuel viewers are “relatively tolerant of ads,” he said. “They’ve been exposed to billions of ad impressions by the time they reach their teens. Ads are part of their world and they are willing to watch them. The bigger issue is how they are presented.”
Both the kids’ 2 to 11 demo and the teen 12 to 17 age group are also much heavier viewers of cable network programming than the general population.
Between January and Nov. 11, 2007, cable’s average audience of kids 2 to 11 during the entire day was 4,176,000, more than five times the 798,000 kids watching English-language broadcast networks.
During the same period, cable had an average audience during the full day of 2,488,000 teens aged 12 to 17, nearly four times the 633,000 teens watching English-language broadcast networks.
Important differences exist, however, between the kids and teen groups. Internet usage among teens is much higher and mobile phone ownership also increases by age.
Recent research by Nickelodeon found that only 9% of children 7 to 9 years old owned a mobile phone, versus 30% in the 10 to 11 group, 52% in the 12 to 13 range and 69% in the 14 to 17 demographic.
Teens are also heavy users of digital media. A survey on cross-platform viewing habits conducted by E! Networks found that 32% of the 13-to-17-year-old demo had watched a TV show online in the last six months, higher than 27% for the 13 to 49 adult population they surveyed.
In addition, 17% of those teens had a video-enabled cell phone (versus 10% overall). About 25% of these teens had used a DVR.
“The big increase has been in online consumption which now exceeds use of DVR or a TiVo,” among teens, said Cyndi McClellan, senior vice president of research and program strategy at Comcast Entertainment Group.
But kids and teens aren’t necessarily the biggest users of online video. About 54% of kids aged 12 to 17 watch online broadband video, according to a 2007 survey by Frank N. Magid Associates.
But Mike Vorhaus, a senior vice president and managing director at Magid, noted that higher levels were found among males aged 18 to 24 (80%), 25 to 34 (64%), 35 to 44 (59%) or even 45 to 54 (60%).
The sweet spot for many types of digital media is actually older, in the 18 to 34 age.

Well, except for Thursday and Friday, CN didn't do that great. I guess doubling up on their shows(Thursday) and re-airing Ben 10: Race Against Time(Friday) helped for those days.

[D Dubbs]

CN sent out a press release on the ratings of Transformers: Animated.


Transformers Animated Premieres #1 on All Television Among Boys and Boosts Kids 6-11 and 2-11 Delivery by Powerful Double-Digits
January 08, 2008
Cartoon Network launched into 2008 with the half-hour original series premiere of Transformers Animated (Saturday, Jan. 5, 10:30 a.m.), charting impressive double-digit delivery and ratings gains among key kid demos and ranking #1 in its time period versus all broadcast and cable competition with boys 6-11 and boys 2-11, according to preliminary data from Nielsen Media Research. Coupled with a new episode of Pokémon: Diamond & Pearl (Saturday, 9:30 a.m.) the new animated series propelled the network's three-hour Saturday morning franchise Dynamite Action Squad (9 a.m.-12 p.m.) to across-the-board double-digit growth. Transformers Animated is jointly developed by Cartoon Network and Hasbro, Inc. and is co-produced by Cartoon Network Studios.
Highlights of Transformers Animated's premiere performance, as well as Dynamite Action Squad's overall presentation vs. the same time period last year include the following:
Transformers Animated Premiere (Saturday, 10:30 a.m.) vs. the same 2007 time period
• Kids 6-11 delivery (657,000) grew by 14%, and ratings (2.7) by 13%
• Kids 2-11 delivery (956,000) improved by 29%, and ratings (2.4) by 33%
• Boys 6-11 delivery (528,000) expanded by 28%, and ratings (4.2) by 27%—#1 in its time period on all TV
• Boys 2-11 delivery (762,000) catapulted by 55%, and ratings (3.7) by 54%—#1 in its time period on all TVDynamite Action Squad Franchise (Saturdays, 9 a.m.-12 p.m.) vs. the same 2007 time period
• Kids 6-11 delivery (533,000) increased by 18%, and ratings (2.2) by 16%
• Kids 2-11 delivery (717,000) rose by 11%, and ratings (1.8) by 13%
• Boys 6-11 delivery (392,000) jumped by 20%, and ratings (3.2) by 23%
• Boys 2-11 delivery (538,000) raced ahead by 21%, and ratings (2.6) by 18%A 4.2 among 6-11 boys is pretty impressive...but a 2.7 among 6-11 kids...not so impressive. It's a decent score, but it's nothing that the average Ben 10 or Pokemon D&P episode couldn't do.

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Seems Sari doesn't get the girl audiences. And this is exactly why they never should have bothered including her. Gosh I miss Beastwars...

Dynamite Action Squad got a PR for farely modest ratings overall (besides good boys ratings). Safe to say it will be CN's action focus this year. But I suppose we already knew that.

Not to play devil's advocate... but I wonder how that line-up would do 7PM-9PM. Could it beat Goosebumps? (probably) Could it do better than it's doing on Saturday morning? Perhaps...

Well, Transformers: Animated is highest rated show on the block, so that's good to hear. Also, Out of Jimmy's Head is still doing well with reruns, beating out Chowder. Also, Teen Titans still has staying power with the 6-11. And the 6-11 don't particularly care for the Cartoon Cartoon Show, at least on weekends.:(

[lemonhead75]

It's just sad to see CN loose in the ratings like that....I'm a real CN fan!

But it's good to see that Transformers: Animated is doing well. It feels right at home on Dynamite Action Squad.

Also, Out of Jimmy's Head is still doing well with reruns, beating out Chowder.

Whoa, OOJH has got game. It might just get another season, but I do hope for improvment in that season.

As you can see, the KND marathon and one-hour series finale helped out CN a lot on Monday. It nearly doubled their 9-14 total on a normal day. Same with 6-11 and 2-11.

[D Dubbs]

Ah, that explains why it's sticking around on the schedule. Glad to see the show go out on a strong note.

What? The show? They will still air it for while, since it's still a pretty popular show.

Actually, before they had the big finale of KND, it was barely on the network at all.

Well, this week Disney Channel beat Cartoon Network. It looks like Totally Spies! and the Cartoon Cartoon show are bringing down the total average. I don't expect them to last much longer on the block...

[desi]

Wow, CN's rating suck. I would like to see their ratings when CN wasn't so suckish.

[Racattack!Force]

Whoa, didn't even break a 3...

Well, from Friday-Sunday, CN did pretty good on the 9-14 front. I'm guessing the Pokemon three-parter helped on Friday(and maybe Saturday). Of course, the winner for CN was Sunday. That Scooby-Doo marathon was probably the best ratings CN had for that day for a couple months. Kids love their Scooby-Doo.

From: Animation Insider

Cable TV Animation: Q3 & Q4 Ratings (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1632)


Cartoon Network:
Now for a full calendar year, Cartoon Network has exhibited declining numbers for key children demographics. Both individually through a month-by-month comparative analysis as well as through a more aggregative look on a Quarterly level, Cartoon Network is down. Although some may have been optimistic for the channel given their July 2007 record high number of visitors to the network website (www.CartoonNetwork.com) (http://www.CartoonNetwork.com%29), spending an average of 77 minutes; it yet remains true that with Kids 6-11 and Kids 2-11, Cartoon Network is losing ground to everyone else. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/Aaron123/AInews/CN_Es/CN_red_logo02.jpg

Starting as far back as the summer months -- that is to say, Nielson's "Summer Ratings" (May 28th through August 26th) -- Cartoon Network was down a hefty 14% with a 1.2 average (P2+, Primetime), when compared to the previous summer ratings season. Though not in last place for cable television altogether, the drop significantly represents or encapsulates the network's seasonal trend.

In the Third Quarter specifically, Cartoon Network fell an unbelievable 17% (K6-11, Total Program Day), marking their largest cyclical decline in well over a year's time.











Cable TV Animation: Q3 & Q4 Ratings February 20th, 2008 7:58 PM by Aaron H. Bynum (http://www.animationinsider.net/staff.php#4)

Cable TV Animation || Cartoon Network (cont'd) & Adult Swim

The situation did not change for Cartoon Network throughout Q3 2007, regarding the ever-cherished Kids 6-11 demographic. July showed a dive of 14% (Total Program Day; 491,000) while the month of August merely reiterated the Quarter's woes, and then some, by dropping 17% (Total Program Day; 479,000); each for the previously mentioned Kids 6-11 demographic. Cartoon Network has almost certifiably lost more and more persons, of this viewership, with each passing month of nearly an entire year.

Cartoon Network fared much better in the Fourth Quarter. The animation and now live-action mix cable channel for children still lost viewers, without question; however, thanks to a few resilient programs Cartoon Network temporarily managed to stop the excessive bleeding. October 2007 slipped only 06% (K6-11, Total Program Day) and the month of November 2007 fell just 07% (K6-11, Total Program Day).

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/Aaron123/AInews/CN_Es/Chowder_foodsies_02.jpgGiving the network kudos where needed, Cartoon Network drew remarkably favorable numbers towards the end of the months of October and November.

The Kids 2-11 demographic in particular came to play thanks to the new original television animation Chowder, a playful, eclectically designed comedy on cooking. Related ratings reports for this cartoon series can be found at the following, previously published AnimationInsider.net news articles: "'Chowder' Premiere Ratings (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1542)" (11/07/2007), Animation Ratings Round-Up (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1553)" (11/16/2007) and "CN November Notables (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1556)" (11/27/2007).

It is stipulated that the crowds drawn by Chowder, his mentor Mung Daal and non-girlfriend Panini did indeed offset Cartoon Network's recurring losses in more than one demographic. However, outside of new show premieres (inclusive of the new series Transformers Animated), Cartoon Network seems to be taunting a dangerous trend with large dips in viewership on a weekly transition, by many thousands of viewers even, only to recoup ever so slightly at each month's end.

Cartoon Network did not fare well with Year End ratings. Based on numbers that are drawn from year-to-year comparisons of yearly averages for key audiences; the network dropped like a rock, down a reported 16% (K6-11, Total Program Day) to 631,000 viewers; and 15% to a lackluster ratings share of 1.1 (P2+, Primetime), down from a 1.3 rating last year. Although showing some resiliency very late on into the year, even vaguely gaining in Total Viewers (P2+) for the Total Program Day in December, Cartoon Network from the wider perspective is still falling. Combating these failing numbers, for the long term, has chiefly been met with original programming and as many are aware, highly extensive corporate restructuring.


Adult Swim:
Adult Swim exhibited stable numbers for adult audiences, showing moderate growth where it counted, while traditionally taking in supplementary viewers in the far younger demographics. Q3 2007 saw an increase of 04% (K6-11, Total Program Day), for example, which outlines same-demo increases for key Third Quarter months of July and August, the latter of which saw the largest growth of the two with 18% (K6-11, Total Program Day) to 204,000.

Altogether, Adult Swim experienced its familiar, looping graph wherein the numbers will sink for the first couple weeks of the month, only to slightly rebound by month's end -- a trend that would get the best of the late night cable network come the Fourth Quarter, no doubt. But for August 2007, Total Viewers (P2+) of Total Program Day statistics was as volatile. On the other end of the spectrum, there wasn't much movement from the Adults 18-49 Total Program Day audience.

Q4 and Year End ratings for Adult Swim's older, primary demography wasn't so much a resounding success as it was a mild progression [related A.I. news: "[as] End of Year '07 Ratings (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1570)"]. These delivery numbers include Men 18-34 up 13% and Adults 18-34 increasing some 08%.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/Aaron123/AInews/ad_swim/AS_logo_03.jpgWhereas younger viewers (K2-11 and K6-11) have traditionally, however quite ironically, tuned in to the channel in droves over the months/years, the Fourth Quarter saw a massive drop from the previous year in the months of October and November 2007, down 16% to 121,000 and a phenomenal 30% to 116,000 viewers respectively. (In retrospect, the end of the 2006-year was unparalleled for Adult Swim: anime titles Bleach and Trinity Blood premiered alongside a slew of new/returning original comedy options.)






Wow. I didn't know CN was doing THAT bad. Even with Chowder and Out Of Jimmy's Head, it sank, but Adult Swim still hanging on. Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, Nicktoons Network, Comedy Central (cartoons), and even Toon Disney is showing big growth in viewers. CN better make some good shows, take the Live Action off, and put back classics on CN, or they're toast like Hot Pockets.

[macattack]

One word: Ouch.

[Umandsf]

Not surprising. It just not as good as it used to be.

Cable TV Animation: Q3 & Q4 Ratings February 20th, 2008 7:58 PM by Aaron H. Bynum (http://www.animationinsider.net/staff.php#4)

Cable TV Animation || Cartoon Network (cont'd) & Adult Swim

The situation did not change for Cartoon Network throughout Q3 2007, regarding the ever-cherished Kids 6-11 demographic. July showed a dive of 14% (Total Program Day; 491,000) while the month of August merely reiterated the Quarter's woes, and then some, by dropping 17% (Total Program Day; 479,000); each for the previously mentioned Kids 6-11 demographic. Cartoon Network has almost certifiably lost more and more persons, of this viewership, with each passing month of nearly an entire year.

Cartoon Network fared much better in the Fourth Quarter. The animation and now live-action mix cable channel for children still lost viewers, without question; however, thanks to a few resilient programs Cartoon Network temporarily managed to stop the excessive bleeding. October 2007 slipped only 06% (K6-11, Total Program Day) and the month of November 2007 fell just 07% (K6-11, Total Program Day).

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/Aaron123/AInews/CN_Es/Chowder_foodsies_02.jpgGiving the network kudos where needed, Cartoon Network drew remarkably favorable numbers towards the end of the months of October and November.

The Kids 2-11 demographic in particular came to play thanks to the new original television animation Chowder, a playful, eclectically designed comedy on cooking. Related ratings reports for this cartoon series can be found at the following, previously published AnimationInsider.net news articles: "'Chowder' Premiere Ratings (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1542)" (11/07/2007), Animation Ratings Round-Up (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1553)" (11/16/2007) and "CN November Notables (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1556)" (11/27/2007).

It is stipulated that the crowds drawn by Chowder, his mentor Mung Daal and non-girlfriend Panini did indeed offset Cartoon Network's recurring losses in more than one demographic. However, outside of new show premieres (inclusive of the new series Transformers Animated), Cartoon Network seems to be taunting a dangerous trend with large dips in viewership on a weekly transition, by many thousands of viewers even, only to recoup ever so slightly at each month's end.

Cartoon Network did not fare well with Year End ratings. Based on numbers that are drawn from year-to-year comparisons of yearly averages for key audiences; the network dropped like a rock, down a reported 16% (K6-11, Total Program Day) to 631,000 viewers; and 15% to a lackluster ratings share of 1.1 (P2+, Primetime), down from a 1.3 rating last year. Although showing some resiliency very late on into the year, even vaguely gaining in Total Viewers (P2+) for the Total Program Day in December, Cartoon Network from the wider perspective is still falling. Combating these failing numbers, for the long term, has chiefly been met with original programming and as many are aware, highly extensive corporate restructuring.


Adult Swim:
Adult Swim exhibited stable numbers for adult audiences, showing moderate growth where it counted, while traditionally taking in supplementary viewers in the far younger demographics. Q3 2007 saw an increase of 04% (K6-11, Total Program Day), for example, which outlines same-demo increases for key Third Quarter months of July and August, the latter of which saw the largest growth of the two with 18% (K6-11, Total Program Day) to 204,000.

Altogether, Adult Swim experienced its familiar, looping graph wherein the numbers will sink for the first couple weeks of the month, only to slightly rebound by month's end -- a trend that would get the best of the late night cable network come the Fourth Quarter, no doubt. But for August 2007, Total Viewers (P2+) of Total Program Day statistics was as volatile. On the other end of the spectrum, there wasn't much movement from the Adults 18-49 Total Program Day audience.

Q4 and Year End ratings for Adult Swim's older, primary demography wasn't so much a resounding success as it was a mild progression [related A.I. news: "[as] End of Year '07 Ratings (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1570)"]. These delivery numbers include Men 18-34 up 13% and Adults 18-34 increasing some 08%.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/Aaron123/AInews/ad_swim/AS_logo_03.jpgWhereas younger viewers (K2-11 and K6-11) have traditionally, however quite ironically, tuned in to the channel in droves over the months/years, the Fourth Quarter saw a massive drop from the previous year in the months of October and November 2007, down 16% to 121,000 and a phenomenal 30% to 116,000 viewers respectively. (In retrospect, the end of the 2006-year was unparalleled for Adult Swim: anime titles Bleach and Trinity Blood premiered alongside a slew of new/returning original comedy options.)






Wow. I didn't know CN was doing THAT bad. Even with Chowder and Out Of Jimmy's Head, it sank, but Adult Swim still hanging on. Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, Nicktoons Network, Comedy Central (cartoons), and even Toon Disney is showing big growth in viewers. CN better make some good shows, take the Live Action off, and put back classics on CN, or they're toast like Hot Pockets.

Wow. Just wow... :eek:

Has anyone watched or heard of the latest Pepsi TV ads? From those commercials come three simple words I'm crying to CN *takes deep breath*......

WAKE UP PEOPLE!!! :(

Reruns are horrible at getting ratings considering new episodes of new shows pretty much always get better ratings. Seinfeld's ratings aren't putting Family Guy's or Heroes' to shame, so why would these? Even past popular Nick/Disney shows (such as Drake and Josh, which was huge a year ago) reruns get lackluster ratings compared to the newer stuff like iCarly.

It might boost their ratings with an adult aduidence, but not the kids aduidence they want.

Looks like the only night(aside from special stunts) CN can get 9-14 ratings higher than 300,000 is Saturday. I'm guessing Toonami is helping in that regard. Looks like the Billy and Mandy marathon and the Zathura movie did well with 2-11 and 6-11. It even brought the 9-14 numbers above 300,000.

Looks like the Out of Jimmy's Head and George of the Jungle marathons did very well for CN. So well, that their 9-14 ratings tied with the Disney Channel for the day. I have a feeling that Out of Jimmy's Head did well with that set. Of course, this was the same night the Fairly Oddparents special aired, and well Nick obviously won.

[lemonhead75]

I seriously wish I could run a tv station, even if it would be local.

But I can't....

There's a new pc game out, TV Giant, that I want to try and see how i do at.

[Classic Sun]

The ratings don't surprise me a bit.

Probably not. Although, we will get to see the overall ratings for Sunday, and since Pokémon was basically the only show on the network that day, it'll give us a good idea of how well the show is doing compared to the rest of the network.

We'll probably be posting an article later on the news page, but let's just say Pokemon still is rather popular in the US contrary to what people would think.The games, sure, but I've never seen the show match Nick/Disney's ratings. It seems about as popular as CN's other shows.

Well, the ratings came in from the weekend, and it looks like the Pokémon marathon did pretty well, as expected. The 2-11 demo was much higher than usual, CN almost matched Disney in the 6-11 demo and they actually beat Disney in the 9-14 demo. They're still light years away from Nick, but still, pretty impressive stuff.

[Racattack!Force]

I just realized that Cartoon Network cares about my opinion. Anyway, I happy Cartoon Network did well.

Dang, CN is down 12% compared to last year, while everyone else made gains. Adult Swim had a much steeper drop, but they don't target children, so it's all good on that front.

[Nexonius]

That's Sapathetic (Sad and Pathetic), to see only CN and AS lose viewers, again, while everybody else, except Discovery and MTV, gains (again).



That CN Shutting Down rumor is getting more realistic each day. Still think Live Action/Stupidity is the way to go, CN? Look at the not so good ratings, and there's your answer.

[Matt Hazuda]

Pokemon's and Bakugan's Sunday ratings are now available (http://news.toonzone.net/article.php?ID=22053).

[batman_cool]

What is the rating for Pokemon 10 in 6-11 demo? I'm just curious.

[Deadman]

Hey, Cartoon Cartoon got a 2.0. Good for it.

its good to see some people still care about the classic cn.

[Master Moron]

Pokemon's and Bakugan's Sunday ratings are now available (http://news.toonzone.net/article.php?ID=22053).

So, the ratings for Bakugan dropped almost 200,000 between the first and second episode. That's about a 25% drop. Hopefully, Bakugan will sink even lower before Cartoon Network goes through with their plan of replacing One Piece with it.

[Nexonius]

Here's some stuff from Multichannel: Sad.

http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6537152.html?q=cartoon+network

[macattack]

It's official: Cartoon Network is in complete freefall. They better look at what they're doing and correct it fast or Cartoon Network will be the new G4.

[DBZNarutoWarrior]

Well, that's what a stuck-up network should get for not listening to ANYBODY. HOPEFULLY they begin to TRUST the VIEWERS soon before their "inferior live-action series idea" totally corrupts CN until it's too late to correct.

We'll see....

[ShadowGUN]

Here's some stuff from Multichannel: Sad.

http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6537152.html?q=cartoon+network

I am not an expert in ratings but CN being the only one in red and the "change" being -22% is really,really bad :sweat: .

Well now, Bakugan doesn't seem off to a terribly great start. But I guess it was only reruns this week...

[Racattack!Force]

So we passed Disney Channel easily and got several shows in the 2s. :D

[RomanMack]

Hmm... Bakugan doesn't seem to be doing too great. At least compared to the other shows.

...

Can't say I care. ;)

Although maybe it's just because it's reruns.

[yoshirider13]

Nice ratings for Pokemon considering they are overplayed reruns.

[Darklordavaitor]

That's a pretty good SatAM for CN. I hope their streak keeps up.

[Master Moron]

Hmm... Bakugan doesn't seem to be doing too great. At least compared to the other shows.

...

Can't say I care. ;)


You should care. The lower Bakugan's ratings, the greater chance that Cartoon Network will forget about this plan to replace One Piece with Bakugan. Then again, I suppose they could just replace One Piece with Pokemon if they really wanted to...

[Space Cadet]

I know you'll be checking the ratings for Bakugan every week to see how it does.;):p

I'm saying I can't show any sympathy to whether or not Bakugan underperforms.

[lemonhead75]

CN's "tween" ratings apear to be catching up. Thanks to me.

I've been sick from school and leave both TV's to CN all day!!:D

[TheVofSteel]

I'm sorry, but ratings are only counted from people with Neilsen boxes. Simply turning the TV to a channel doesn't mean you're actually counting in the ratings for said channel.

All I have to say for this week is...you know you're whooped when Nick gets four times the ratings...

[macattack]

Wow, Nick just utterly destroyed everybody on Saturday. Ouch. At least CN managed second place.

[Nexonius]

Dem Spongebob's killing da competition. Nobody messes with da Sponge Nizzle. Fa Shizzle.

NOTE:
I will never say Fa Shizzle, Nizzle, or Da again.

[Darklordavaitor]

SpongeBob got an 8.9? Isn't that a new record?

When will this show die?

[Racattack!Force]

I have the feeling that it will never truly die and become the next Looney Toons so that 60 years from now people still love him.

Chop Socky Chooks managed ti di better than I thought it would. I still haven't got to see the show.

[RPG KING]

is this millions or thousands?

[Darklordavaitor]

Hey, you sure got a great dislike for The Sponge.
Pretty much. Even at age 8, I'd of rather taken the chair then stand through another episode. But, after seeing how all of my friends loved it, I still took in most of the first three seasons throughot their course. Not even one laugh.

[TheVofSteel]

I have the feeling that it will never truly die and become the next Looney Toons so that 60 years from now people still love him.

I would actually like that (Regardless of what certain haters think.) After all, Stephen Hillenburg's original goal was to make a timeless cartoon with little to no popular culture references so that the show wouldn't seem outdated 50 years later (besides the animation of course), but that doesn't stop people from liking shows (unless it's badly made animation). IMO? If any long-running cartoon deserves to die, it's The Simpsons, not Spongebob.

Spongebob is good, and the jokes are timeless. But does it really have to be streched out for that long? :shrug:

As you can see, the George Lopez marathon really helped out Nick at Nite. Not just with adults, which it did very well with, but also kids.

Also, CN did fine on Saturday, average on Sunday and surprisingly very well on Monday. I guess the Beasts Unleashed seems to be doing well for them.

[Racattack!Force]

I never noticed that Cartoon Network does well in Primetime with K2-11 and K6-11. That's pretty good. :D

Well, Bakugan didn't do so hot last weekend.

[Darklordavaitor]

Not too shabby for Chop Socky Chooks; not impressive, but this is CN we're talking about.

[peterg14]

Wow, I didn't know Pokemon got those kinds of ratings still. I guess they were higher back in the day.

[Classic Sun]

Glad to see Bakujunk performing badly.

[Carlos]

Wow, I didn't know Pokemon got those kinds of ratings still. I guess they were higher back in the day.

Well, Pokemon tends to get higher ratings when new episodes air, but yeah the show still does well.

[D Dubbs]

Uh...yeah, sorry about not posting those.


Wow, I didn't know Pokemon got those kinds of ratings still. I guess they were higher back in the day.

Ah, yes, they were much higher. I remember seeing some ratings reports for Kids' WB from 2002 when the show's popularity was already declining and it had ratings in the 6.0s. So I imagine that back in its prime, the show was easily getting 10.0s or higher. And when you consider that cable ratings are only worth about half of broadcast ratings (a 1.0 on broadcast is rougly equivalent to a 2.1 on cable, according to Jeff Harris), the show probably gets a tenth of the ratings it used to.

That said, it's still holding its own, and is one of the most sucessful shows Cartoon Network has acquired in the past few years.

[RomanMack]

Glad to see Bakujunk performing badly.You said it.

[Racattack!Force]

I wonder how Samurai Jack is going to preform on Saturday?

[FTPC]

Mugen,

What site do you get this ratings from, could you link me?

RATINGS

Nickelodeon's broadcast of its 2008 Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday, March 29 (8-9:30p) set a new record for the network, not with decibels but rather with the biggest KCA show ratings to date among K2-11 (3.8 million) and total Viewers 2+ (7.4 million) up by +6% and +22% over last year. In addition, the 21st annual KCA telecast scored new all time high demo records for K6-11 (2.9 million) and Tweens 9-14 (2.7 million), an increase versus last year of +2% and +4% respectively. Additionally, the 2008 KCA drove Nick.com ( www.nick.com (http://www.nick.com/) ) to the highest trafficked day in its history, with 1.7 million unique visitors, who each spent an average of 40 minutes on the site, and 27.1+ million page views. Meanwhile 89.3 million votes were cast, which is +119% over last year.

Not really a surprise that the KCA destroyed everything.

The KCA's had the weakest performances this year I mean come on, Miley Cyrus and the Naked Brothers band... They used to have big name bands and artists perform...

Look at how much money Miley made last year, and tell me that she's not a big name.

Well, Saturday did well for CN. And for the first time in a while, CN got the tween average over 300,000 on Sundays. I guess the Jurassic Park III airing certainly helped in that regard. I kinda wonder how the movie did with adults...

[lemonhead75]

Better thane some of their ratings last year. In fact, most of them...

Well, Blue Dragon didn't do so bad on Saturday mornings. The second episode even improved on the ratings of the first. Even Bakugan had improved ratings last week. Of course, Playhouse Disney won, even though it only targets 2-5 year olds(that and it helps when you air a movie, since that boosts your average). Shows how much the 6-11 year olds like the block as well.

[D Dubbs]

Yeah, nice to see some improvement with DAS. I have a feeling that those ratings will only get better with new Pokemon and Ben 10 episodes just around the bend.

[Darklordavaitor]

Of course, Playhouse Disney won, even though it only targets 2-5 year olds(that and it helps when you air a movie, since that boosts your average). S
Not really. When you average out both block's rating, CN got about a 1.8, while Disney got around a 1.6. Not much of a boost, but DAS tops PHD's morning block again.

EDIT: Didn't see final averages. Ouch.

[macattack]

Oh wow, CN took a big blow on Saturday. Guess no one wanted to watch Naruto that day, huh?

[Space Cadet]

Yeah, and while Sunday was pretty good for CN(the best ratings they had for the day in a while), the Ben 10 special on Monday did not help the ratings for that day at all.

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Oh wow, CN took a big blow on Saturday. Guess no one wanted to watch Naruto that day, huh?

I can't blame 'em...

But seriously CN's Saturday 9-14 average has been pretty bad lately. But I guess they're more concerned with their 6-11 average anyway.

Looks like the Ben 10 series finale didn't help that much, as the 2-11 year olds were down from last week. Same goes for 6-11. Only 9-14 went up.

We won't know Thursday's ratings until next week, but aside from Sunday's ratings, the Ben 10 week hasn't done that well for CN. To be fair, the individual programs may have done well, but it wasn't enough to help out the total day.

[Racattack!Force]

Only 9-14 went up.


I guess I had some help with that. :sweat:

[PC!]

So, bets on what kind of ratings the Alien Force premiere will get?

CN has been advertising the bejeebers out of it, and if the live action movie can be such a success, there's no doubt in my mind it's going to be BIG.

Bakugan's ratings only seem to be getting better and better...

[RomanMack]

Ah, damn it.

[Nexonius]

Well, I think you're going a little far on the Bakugan thing. I mean, sure it's lame Nelvana Anime, but CN needs all it can get. Plus, they beaten the Playhouse Disney block, which beats them time after time.

And just be glad Bakugan was replaced by Samurai Jack on Toonami. Once the kids stop watching Bakugan, it'll be BakuGONE.

[D Dubbs]

Once the kids stop watching Bakugan, it'll be BakuGONE.

Yeah, except the ratings are going up, not down...

Bakugan only lasted 51 episodes in Japan, though, so it probably won't stay on CN more than a year...

[yoshirider13]

I think Pokemon is suffering from a horrible lead in...

[lemonhead75]

Give Robot Boy some credit.

[RonDrakenfan17]

How did Ben 10 AF do in the ratings?

[D Dubbs]

How did Ben 10 AF do in the ratings?

Not sure yet. Cartoon Network will probably release a press release later this week...

[Racattack!Force]

That is, if they plan on airing the series without taking breaks from airing new episodes, that is. Which I doubt. Also, the merchandise is selling out fast. Hey, Beyblade is getting another season...with Bakugan's ratings, I think CN might try and gets the rights to air the series. :shrug:

[RonDrakenfan17]

Not sure yet. Cartoon Network will probably release a press release later this week...

I hope we find out soon, I hope it did really well :)
