The Ratings: Memphis Wrestling TV 1.16.08

----This past Saturday’s show did a very low rating with an overall rating of 1.9 [31,660 viewers]. The show opened with almost 32,000 viewers and then up about 8% for the second quarter. From that point the viewers just kept turning off the show as this finished with 1,999 less viewers than they started with. The only good point of this is that not A LOT of people turned off the show, so the ones that did turn it on had some interest in it. Overall I thought it was a good show as it showed clips of the big Coliseum show.

----The “What was Memphis watching?” number had over 140,000 viewers watching News Channel 3/CSI Miami. I also noticed that Memphis Wrestling DID NOT beat any of the shows on the networks including Saturday Night Live, MAD TV and a “Popcorn Theater” showing of “Conspiracy Theory”. Also take note that the 12 week average number keeps going down with a 2.6 [44,135 viewers].
