Nielsen Ratings Thread #1 - Ep. 5.15: 'A Hole In The World' Update!
 

Since the discussion is pretty heavy so far, I decided to go ahead and make this the thread for posting overnight ratings for each episode in here.

I will update the list of the episodes for this season.

What is the scale? Is that like a percentage?

That's awesome! I was simply hoping the ratings would stay the same but they went up! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

YES! Go Angel!!!
You know its Spike who is doing all the work right!!

thats good, right, anyways, what are the ratings out of?

That's great. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Cool news! Thanks for posting the ratings.

Here's some more good news, from www.thefutoncritic.com :

Oh yay! I'm so happy AtS is doing fine, ratings-wise [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Is anyone going to tell us what those ratings mean? Is that 4.7 out of 7?

[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] That made my night.

Spike is exactly what the show needed.

Wow! That is excellent news! A full season for certain. I am glad the show is off to a good start so far. Thanks for the news Brian!

I am not too good about explaining how ratings work, I just know when a show is doing good or bad. Angel is doing fairly excellent so far this season, compared to last years ratings. The season finale of last season brought in a 3.8/5 in overnight ratings. The highest was 4.0/6 (The House Always Wins) and the lowest 2.7/4 (Long Day's Journey and Calvary). For season four's rating breakdown, click here.

I highly doubt it was just cause of Spike.

Me too. Having a kickass lead-in like Smallville helps a lot. Its the WB's number 1 rated show, right? Or is 7th Heaven still in that spot? But i'm sure having the new storyline of Spike joining is generating a lot of viewers to stay tuned-in and old btvs fans to join in.

whooo hooo!!! yay this is sooo great!

well it wasnt all spike but he has certanly helped. and i dont no cuz not all of WB"s hsows are doing as well rating wise. so so much for the whole smallvill thing. whih problbly helped 2

but this is great!!

Also the WB sure is advertising it more on its own channel. Everytime I saw a Smallville commercial there would be an Angel one. Sure it was shorter than Smallville's but its better than the lack of promotion we got in the last couple of years.
