The Ratings are in!!!

----The ratings are in and they are not good this week. It was a 2.8 [46,608.8 viewers]with only two other shows doing worse [8.19 & 6.03.06] in our data span [5.13 to 9.09.06]. The peak of the ratings were in the final quarter of the show right in the middle of the “Family Of Pain” match doing a 3.1 [52,602.6 viewers], so at least when the most people were watching the best thing was airing. The first quarter ending with Huey vs Tatt2 finished with 2.7 [44,944.2 viewers]. The next quarter from 10:15 PM to 10:30 PM starting with the “Leave To Lawler” skit and ended as the mixed tag was finishing at a 2.8 [46,608.8 viewers]rating. The trend was going up, but it dropped for the next quarter with Lance Russell with a 2.6 [43279.6 viewers], but then a big jump to the 3.1 ending.

----What does this all mean?? Too earlier really to say anything yet, but if this kind of rating continues, then it can not be good. Not good to see them turning off right after the Lawler segment. It was either one or two things – everyone thought it sucked like I did or viewers turning on to just to watch Lawler. Another factor could be that when Maclin said “Opening the Vault” was coming up next, and then people didn’t care. They lost 3,329.2 viewers in that drop, but then gained 9323 viewers for the final quarter.
