----The ratings are in. They did bounce back from the bad rating from last week, but not even up to average. They scored an overall 3.4 [56,596.4 viewers] rating for Saturday’s show. The first segment ending in the middle of the tag team title change had 3.2 [53,267.2 viewers]. Rest of the title change and Jethro beating up Grady was the next segment scoring 3.3 [54931.8 viewers]. A slow climb continued into the third quarter with a 3.4 [56596.4 viewers] starting with the Reggie B Fine interview and in the middle of the 6 – Man tag [they were already getting heat on America]. 3.9 [64919.4 viewers] watched the last quarter seeing the finish of the 6-man, “Opening the Vault” and “Too Cool 2” interview.
----The show is still not giving at least average numbers [3.7=61,590.2 viewers], but I do not see a problem if the show levels off at an average of 3.0 [49,938 viewers] for the late night spot. But, that would have them losing on an average 11,652.2 viewers. When they start dropping on an average of below 3.0, then I would consider that a problem. I have also shown where the gates of the house shows are not measured by the ratings. I am still looking forward to the next Southaven gate though. Funny thing is that if the Southaven show does bad or good, they will blame it on the TV show move to 10:00 PM. The Southaven shows draw only when they give the fans something they want to see.
