|  #1 Posted on 13.9.02 1053.36 | Zap2it.com says UPN finished fourth last night on the overnights w/ a 4.9 rating/8 share. I think Meltz always says the normal range for overnights caps off at 4.6, so there you have it.| Promote this thread! |           | tomvejada

| #4 Posted on 13.9.02 1934.47 | Actually, isn't the SD 3.7 even higher than the RAW one because Smackdown isn't on cable?

| #5 Posted on 13.9.02 2314.00 | From what I've seen from the AP wires and such, nope; Each ratings point represents 1,067,000 households.
So, that would say SD's rating is doing better than Raw, period.

|  #6 Posted on 14.9.02 0139.02 | I think the guy meant that since RAW is available to more people, that it should be expected to get a higher rating based on that alone (which is true). Smackdown always has a hill to climb because of the difference in ratios of how many people ARE watching to how many people COULD be watching.

I'll cheer ratings of 1 if it means the end of HLA. I'll take ratings of 0.1 if it means the end of Lawler.

| #8 Posted on 14.9.02 0159.12 | Actually, once upon a time, numbers from Broadcast Television meant more than Cable television because more people have access to Broadcast than Cable. So a 4.1 for a CBS/NBC/Whatever show means more people were watching than a 4.1 for ESPN/Comedy Central. But they redid the ratings in the past couple years, so I don't know if they're balanced now.

So today, RAW's 3.7 is actually bigger than a 3.7 from over 2 years ago.
