Ratings Discussion Thread

[HerpDerp]

So, after months of promotion and anticipation, the show has finally premiered.
Nick is really relying on this show pulling big numbers, particularly in K6-11 and K12-17, where they've seen a steep drop in viewers over the last year or so.
What are your predictions?
For some perspective, Korra premiered to around 4.5mil viewers earlier this year. It didn't have anywhere near the level of promotion as TMNT, however, it was also highly anticipated and had the advantage of being a spin-off of an already successful Nick show with a large fanbase (Avatar).
Do you think TMNT will top that?


I will be posting the ratings in this thread as they become available, BTW.

It'll be interested to see how good the Friday preview episode did too..

[Donatello19]

I think this will be WAY more successful than Korra. I can't wait to see the ratings

Not that this is scientific or fact-based information in any way, but I checked in with my boyfriend's niece and nephew who are 7 and 9 and they were both extremely excited about this show. The boy in particular was saying how much he loves Ninja Turtles before this premiere happened (he's never seen any version of Turtles in his life, lol). Then there's my co-worker who has 2 girls aged 6 and 7 who have been talking this show up and I know they were both watching this morning.

From the pulse-read I've taken on the kids I know, it seems like NickTurtles is definitely on their radar.

Update -- I saw these kids again this past weekend and showed them my 11" Nick TMNT figures. They went freaking bananas over them! We all re-watched the first 2 eps together while we played with our toys. I had to apologize to their parents because now all they want for Christmas is Ninja Turtle stuff.

I would love to hear what the ratings were.

I pvr'd the hour show and watched it over lunch with my son(6) and daughter(3). We all loved it.

[Heather Breckel]

I expect it to be at least as successful as Korra. The main disadvantage Korra had was it really helped to have seen Avatar:TLA first to fully enjoy it. TMNT might have the advantage there as they're starting fresh with this series. There's not many *good* action shows directed towards children these days so I expect it to do very well.

Friday night cable ratings are in:

The "Rise of the Turtles" preview got 2.295 million viewers. Not bad considering it had absolutely zero promotion.

Terribly sorry if this has already been posted or if there already exists a thread, if so, please merge, but was wondering if there was a good source online or if anyone knows the ratings so far for the new show?

Ratings for "Metalhead":

-11 AM: 3.612 million viewers, 0.88 A18-49

http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/201...e-more/155015/

From the numbers I've seen so far, in total viewers it was the second highest kids show premiere of the week (SpongeBob being the first).

[CyberCubed]

Very, very good. Looks like TMNT is becoming a hit for Nick as expected.

As long as this means we get at least 7 seasons and over 150 episodes I am sold.

Awesome Ratings as always! Thanks HerpDerp for bringing good news again

Once again an increase in viewers for the second week in a row. Highest rated episode since the premiere! Great sign of staying power.

[HerpDerp]

That list is somewhat misleading because it's a mix of repeats and premieres.

Saturdays produce the higher ratings so I figured it made more sense to include those since that's their regular timeslot anyway, but I guess I could include the Friday premieres as well.
