yes live numbers are important, it's just that not everyone that's watching is counted, so it's really hard to influence these numbers unless you know a Nielsen family and tell them to tune in. all other people simply don't count. that's the reality. but what does count are views on videos of the cw website + hulu, so I think we should focus on that. we know the cw tracks these numbers. Hold It!!!
Let me get this straight. If I watch the episodes on CW website or hulu, it counts as oppose to me just watching from my home TV or DVR? So why aren't we all doing this?
~MiloSince I learned this a couple of weeks ago,. I've started just pulling up the show on CW on my iPad and/or laptop, and letting it play. Sometimes I watch, sometimes I don't (volume off, screen dimmed) but at least it's counting as viewed by CW. Sometimes I go back and watch it with my DVR (on the big screen TV! while it's still playing off the CW website on my portables. Maybe more of you want to try this?!

There is massive promotion on Twitter about watching BATB live.. twiting at you favorite star a message....SOME WHO HAS THE FAMOUS NIELSEN CAN SEE IT (I think someone has to) .. MUCH BETTER!! IF THEY DON'T THEN, THEY DO IT ONLINE.. If the Live ratings doesn't matter. why Batbwriter encourage the fan do it so badly

^ Obviously they need more viewers...I'm guessing they want a higher demo rate above 0.5 this time...Dunno

Is there any game in U.S which could affects ratings like last week? Yes last week was basketball games as is tonight as well! 20% of the major target area will be affected tonight...I think that's why we got a 0.5 last week..and most likely will get the same tonight cause of the game!

I'm seriously starting to worry here..It seems that the campaign on twitter today is non-stop...Maybe the writers got news that if the show doesn't pick up viewers they are done? Cause why today of all days are they really trying to get viewers?? Plus the writers have been posting poignant quotes..I don't like this one bit...I could be wrong I hope I am.

Well, time is of the essence. There are only a few more episodes left for the rest of the season and it's about time the ratings start to pick up. I'm worried too. This "March Madness" stuff doesn't help one bit either!! I'm also very fortunate that the games are shown on CBS for me too rather than my CW affiliate...or I'd be really upset!!! I think the ratings will probably be similar to last week, but I'm hoping for the best. I think the VinCat sex last week interested a lot of new viewers and hopefully that translates to a good showing this week. BTW, that two week hiatus they have coming up isn't bound to help either...really wish they would stop that since it's a huge momentum killer.

They play games on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays through the beginning of April. This will last a few weeks.

Hold It!!!
Let me get this straight. If I watch the episodes on CW website or hulu, it counts as oppose to me just watching from my home TV or DVR? So why aren't we all doing this?
~Milo A bunch of us are trying to do this. I've Tweeted about this several times & encouraged Beasties outside of the US to download programs such as Tunnelbear, which allow them to access CWTV.com & Hulu.com, so they can help in online views. Our online numbers prior to this were decent. I'm under the impression they are awesome now! haha So with the DVR numbers that count the most... Live +3, BATB seems to average 0.8 for most episodes. This isn't awesome, but it's still better than most other shows on the network. It will be nice when all the financial report stuff comes out and then we start seeing how well BATB really did overseas and all that... I think that will really be telling as to its renewal chances. There is massive promotion on Twitter about watching BATB live.. twiting at you favorite star a message....SOME WHO HAS THE FAMOUS NIELSEN CAN SEE IT (I think someone has to) .. MUCH BETTER!! IF THEY DON'T THEN, THEY DO IT ONLINE.. If the Live ratings doesn't matter. why Batbwriter encourage the fan do it so badly Because the BATB writers have no clue which Beasties on Twitter are Nielson viewers. Most Nielson families are (strongly) encouraged to keep their participation in the program a secret. Odds are a few of us Tweeting may be a Nielson member... so BATB writers have to encourage everyone to tune in.
