the move to sundays good or bad
i not liking the move from saturady morning i mean korra one of nicks other top shows got slaughtered but they were stupid enough to move it to primetime i dont want the turtles to suffer this show it still too red hot to cool down and nick to screw it over.
so the sunday move good idea or sucical move. |
I've been pondering the same question. What was the reason for switching? Is it permanent?I think they should have just left it.
|
I thought it was just a one time thing... No?
|
From what I hear only the small amount of people who go to Church on Sunday mornings will be affected, so I wager at least 80% of us will be OK.
|
With dvr's I don't think it will affect those people but how many kids watch cartoons on sunday morning? This seems like a really dumb move to me. I loved on Friday nights and on Saturday mornings but this is just dumb I think.
|
plz nick....how bout we try Friday nights again XD?? Friday nights were so perfect!
|
Who's home watching TV on Friday night? Friday night is considered a ratings junkyard where shows nobody watches get crammed.
Although, as someone else said, with DVR nobody watches shows when they're on anymore, anyway. I almost never see this show when it's actually on. |
The Sunday airing actually had a higher rating than the Saturday airing for 3 of the last 4 weeks for the repeats.
This could be a month or so plan to test to see if this was just a blip or trend. |
I don't really care myself about it, but we'll see if this is a one time thing or not. If it's a permanent move, I can see it being a test to see if ratings get higher on Sundays. And for people who go to church there's always the DVR or the Nick West channel if you get that. And if not, then you can always see the replay on the next Saturday if they have it.

Makes me sad. I quite liked the whole resurgence of the Saturday Morning Cartoon thing.
Get up. Watch Turtles, Young Justice, and Green Lantern. Go about my Saturday as planned. Le sigh. I'll Tivo it, but I most likely won't watch it live on Sundays. |
Honestly, any of those days are bad for me. I think the weekends are bad to air shows in general. People are doing things. With the exception of Sunday evenings, I honestly think no show should air from Friday to Sunday.
Of course I have to remember that I am not the key demographic here. They're trying to find times that work for boys who go to school from 8 to 3. I still think Monday or Tuesday evenings would have been better. Oh well. This is why I love my DVR. |
I miss it coming on Saturday. Felt very nostalgic, but I'd rather have the ratings through the roof or as close as we can get them.
|
I'm gonna miss it on Saturday mornings:cry: whatever happened to Saturday morning cartoons?:-?

In Germany, in the 1990's, the OT cartoon EVER came on Saturday morning, around 11 am. So the move to Sunday is bad for my imagination ... I should start first to check out the new series ...
|
Just be lucky it's not like that Legend of Korra schedule, whenever a new episode would air you'd have to keep checking the TV guide or some thing to make sure not to miss an episode.
|
Yes but the Legend of Korra could be watched for free on there site. I work every other sunday from 9:00/9:30-8:00 so I will be missing a lot of episodes.
|
I think we need to just trust in Nick. They haven't disappointed thus far. I'm sure they will do everything in their power to make sure this show is as successful as possible as it's a big money maker for them.
|
Aren't the new episodes of Marvel on Sunday mornings? Maybe they're trying to compete more directly with those?
|
Interestingly, Season 2 of OT aired on Sunday mornings in some markets, and was successful despite the more religious-oriented culture at the time. I usually go to church Saturday evenings or earlier Sunday mornings, so it wouldn't effect me and of course there's multiple times for church, and generally 11 AM is after worship ends, but as the weather gets warmer and people start heading outdoors, this timeslot could be a problem for some. I'm sort of neutral on the shift. Of course there will be some alternative airing times on Nick/Nick 2; the move isn't as crucial today as opposed to pre-DVR (which IMO defeated the purpose of a schedule for non-live TV).
|
Hey guys: the internet. I don't even know what day most of the shows I watch air on. DVR's and streaming services and other means exist...so who cares?
|
I hear this week's episode showed a .7 million jump in ratings compared to the last one. Sounds like if they were expecting more people to watch it on Sunday, mission accomplished. Surprisingly.

I'm not surprised that the ratings have improved. Most kids watch TV on Saturday and they advertised Sunday's episode all day Saturday...so, yeah.
|
I prefer it on Saturday to be sure, but 'whatever floats their boat' so to say.

At least it wasn't moved to the Friday night spot of death! I am surprised by a Sunday spot though - clearly things are different than when I was a kid, but I don't remember Sunday's used to be the "re-air" days for episodes of stuff that was new earlier in the week.

|
