There might be different financial elements concerned in a present’s destiny, however sometimes the higher-rated sequence are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
Keep in thoughts that the demo numbers are sometimes what’s most vital to advertisers. Therefore, that’s how the networks measure success. Advertisers pay extra for advert time on a present that has a better demo ranking. Older viewers additionally matter however youthful viewers watch much less conventional TV and are due to this fact more durable to succeed in. Delayed viewing issues increasingly more lately (if commercials are watched) however reside viewing remains to be advertisers’ best.
Demo numbers are sometimes reported utilizing the 10ths decimal place (2.4, for instance). In the averages, I’m utilizing an additional decimal for simpler rating. The networks keep in mind when exhibits air on Fridays and Saturdays, nights when TV viewership is decrease.
