quarks October 12, 2017 Share October 12, 2017 1 hour ago, ruby24 said: Oh, I guess I just meant recently. I know historically shows were discovered in later seasons a lot, but it doesn't seem like this is something that happens too often anymore, especially for the CW. Do you count five years as recently? My mentioning Dynasty as a historical example was hardly meant to suggest that Dynasty is the one and only time this happened - I just brought it up because we're also discussing its reboot in this thread. In the last five years, ABC, NBC, CBS, Bravo, the Cartoon Network, AMC and HBO have all had shows that doubled in the ratings (and also, MSNBC and CNN in the past year). It happens. It just very rarely happens on the CW - unless we're counting the Arrowverse crossover episodes last season, and I don't think the ratings actually doubled for any of the shows there, just improved, I think the last time may have been back in season three of Buffy, before the CW was even the CW. Anyway, assuming that Riverdale's numbers don't adjust and Supernatural and Arrow stay more or less steady from last season, that may leave Riverdale the CW's second highest show for the week. Which is great for Riverdale, but not so great for the CW - because this is also a huge drop for the CW's second highest show. Last year, that was Supergirl, with 1.1/3.01 viewers, and the year before that, Arrow, with 1.1/2.67. This year? .8/2.30. Kinda fortunate that the CW network gets most of its revenue from post-views. 5 Link to comment

I think this is a paradigm shift that is difficult for laypeople to get used to, since we've always been told that the demos matter more than total viewers. Not to mention most people still don't know how ratings work. I mean you still have people threatening to not watch live thinking they affect ratings even though they're not Nielsen households.

statsgirl October 12, 2017 Share October 12, 2017 Who knew that Joe and Iris were Lutheran? Or maybe it's Barry who is Lutheran and they picked the church for the groom. It must be cold in Vancouver since everyone is wearing big coats when they're rehearsing or standing around. 2 hours ago, quarks said: Meanwhile, not to sound like a broken record on this, but is there any possible way that I can get you guys to follow the lead of the CW, Fox, and ABC (and Showtime, Netflix, and several others) and stop paying attention to the demo and focus on total viewers, a better indicator of future revenue, instead? It's going to be especially bad because it's opposite football. The demo never made any sense as an indicator and especially now when between college loans, unpaid internships, short term contracts and starting families, young adults have the least amount of money of any group to buy the advertisers' products. 2 Link to comment

scarynikki12 October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 Tonight's Gotham was really good. Ben McKenzie wrote it and I can only say "MORE PLEASE". I'm already loving Ra's since Siddig showed up but Ben's characterization made him even better. I love, and I mean LOVE, Sofia Falcone. She is a great addition to the show. I never considered her to be a possible character but, now that she's here, I am curious if they'll bring in Alberto or if that may be too many Falcones. Alex was a great one off tragic character. I felt for him throughout the episode and especially when Ra's slit his throat. And Bruce not being prepared with backup plans for his backup plans was a nice touch. Fast forward ten years and he'll be able to save another Alex. But he's not there yet and the guilt will eat at him but also make him strive to be better. It's going to be awesome. In lighter news, Victor Zsasz is the Character I Never Knew I Could Love This Much. He solves riddles! He likes rap! He dances to rap! He'll judge you if you don't buy your fiance a decent ring! And his grin of delight in these comedy moments might be my favorite thing about this season. And there's so much to love. Oh, and a personal peeve of mine is the TV thing where shows act like no two character have the same name, except for kids named for parents who then get called something else anyway. I went to school with dozens of Katies, Emilys, Elizabeths, Marys, Johns, and Stevens, of varying spellings yet TV acts like such a thing couldn't possibly happen. Well, on Gotham, not only did we have Victor Zsasz and Victor Fries in the same episode, both got to be called by their names and it was even a chuckle moment when Pengy had to clarify to Zsasz that he meant Fries. Hallelujah! Back to Ben, he wrote a tight episode with a good plot and good characterizations. He didn't sacrifice one in service to the other and was consistent with where the show and characters have been while setting up where they're going. 4 Link to comment

I know it's disheartening but you may well get a very good Ray and Mick episode down the track even if Ray and Nate is the preferred friendship for now!

He didn't sacrifice one in service to the other and was consistent with where the show and characters have been while setting up where they're going. Yeah, Ben did a fantastic job, not only with the other characters, but with his own. The producers should listen to his input more because I didn't want to punch Jim once until the end, and that's only because I'm exhausted with his love life. Alexander Siddig was a revelation as Ra's. He was everything you could ever want in the character and them some. Watching young Bruce tangling with him was both disturbing and terrifying. I felt he was in real jeopardy if not physically (because he has a destiny after all), then emotionally and psychologically. Gotham has always done a spectacular job casting and writing for their iconic Rogue's Gallery and Ra's is no exception. It does bring me back to how Arrow managed to screw up their own Ra's so badly. I've always assumed they couldn't afford someone like Siddig or Oded Fehr because they blew all their cash on BR, but that doesn't explain the writing. How could such self-proclaimed comic fanboys get it so wrong on such a well known character? It's been a couple of years, and I'm still shaking my head over it. I hope they watched this episode so they can truly grasp how badly they failed. They need to know because DC keeps giving them important characters, and they keep half-assing them. Anyway, episodes like this are the reason Gotham is my favorite comic book show. It's got it's flaws (most of them revolve around Jim Gordon and his stupidity and his awful, awful love life), but it knows who all the other characters are, and who they're suppose to be; and it can tell wild and completely unpredictable stories about them. 3 Link to comment

But it also made perfect sense with the circumstances so it didn't upset me like when other characters get fridged (No, he wasn't a love interest but he was being set up as a friend and someone learning from Bruce and his death is really going to be a push going forward for the show to emotionally mine for Bruce) 2 Link to comment

You Can't Judge the Crossover By Its Cover...But You Also Kind of Can There are aspects to this season's big four-show crossover that are going to sound a little shockingly topical at first, but that's not the intention. "I'll say that there are going to be things that people are going to look at and go, oh, that's ripped from the headlines!" Guggenheim said. "Our intention truly was to recapture some of that magic that we felt as kids reading the annual Justice League/Justice Society crossovers that DC used to do. For example, the cover image that we published, that's an homage to Justice League of America 207, which was actually the 20th anniversary crossover between the Justice League and the Justice Society. They would do it every year, the same way we do our little Arrow-verse crossover every year. So we were just looking to tell a really big fun cool story, so yeah, it would feel to me describing it as being topical would be a little bit false advertising."

Primal Slayer October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 Oh wow @ Supernatural. I think CW is both happy and sad about how their non-DC shows are performing and how their DC shows are underperforming. Link to comment
Velocity23 October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 I am a little jealous they got 2 EW covers this hiatus. 3 minutes ago, Primal Slayer said: Oh wow @ Supernatural.

Starfish35 October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 (edited) So, pending adjustments, the ranks are, for the demo: The Flash 1.1 Riverdale 0.8 Supernatural 0.7 Arrow/Legends 0.6 Supergirl 0.5 Valor/Dynasty 0.3 And for total viewers: The Flash 2.84 million Riverdale 2.34 million Supernatural 2.10 million Supergirl 1.87 million Legends 1.72 million Arrow 1.57 million Dynasty 1.27 million Valor 1.20 million Interesting that Supergirl is the only one whose total viewership changes the relative ranking. Indicating that its audience skews older, or perhaps younger, than the demo for the other shows? I'm not sure. Edited October 13, 2017 by Starfish35 Link to comment
tv echo October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 (edited) I'm assuming this is for the crossover? LoT filming notice for Oct. 16-17 at 1502 Granville St. Quoted from filming notice: -- "We will be filming several daytime stunt fight sequences on the 1500 block of Granville Street, underneath the bridge. The scenes will revolve around our heroes battling an invading army of German Soldiers." -- "Filming a montage scene of an invading army walking along the 500 block of Beach Crescent toward Granville St. We will be using heavy gof for this scene." -- "Filming more stunt fight scenes under the bridge." https://twitter.com/cuckoologic/status/918631472814178304 Edited October 13, 2017 by tv echo 1 Link to comment
quarks October 13, 2017 Share October 13, 2017 Full credit to Supernatural there, for pulling off a third place finish in their 13th season. That said - this is a pretty big slip in the CW's top four ranked shows from last season to the top four ranked shows of this season. 1 Link to comment
