TNA Television Ratings

[Crippler]

Joseph Park = RATINGS

 

[Troy]

Rating continues to tank after Bischoff had decided to trash UFC for their ratings. They have lost a fair chunk of their audience and it hasn't been a one or two week drop it has been down for over a month. Went from at least 1.2's to 1.0 and it doesn't look like climbing back up anytime soon.

 

[Troy]

The 5/10 edition of Impact did a 1.11 rating with 1,533,000 viewers. That is up from recent weeks.

Nice to see them increasing the rating a bit, still not at the level it used to be but it is moving in the right direction.

 

[Ben]

The May 17 episode of IMPACT got a 1.08 rating with 1,476,000 viewers.

Good to see they managed to hold on to that extra ten percent and didn't drop back down to a 1.0 rating. I can't wait for Impact to start going live because I really think that it will be a turning point for them, if they book it right it could be massive for them.

Booking live might not be enough.

They need either a couple of new faces OR a couple of old faces that have laid dormant for awhile. And I DON'T mean old geezer legends by that either lol.

True it will take more than simply going live but I think that being live will give it a boost on its own. At the moment people view the spoilers and then decide not to watch because of what they see written down. If it is live I am sure that more people will give it a chance and as long as TNA produces a decent show people will continue to tune in.

Last night's edition of TNA Impact Wrestling, according to PWTorch.com, drew a final 1.02 cable rating, which is down slightly from the 1.07 rating the show took in last week.

The Open Fight Night segment drew a 1.0, which is up from the previous week's 0.97 rating.

 

[Troy]

So they are back down to a 1.0 rating. Bit disappointing that it is ever so slightly dropping backwards and still can't get close to the 1.2 that they used to average.

 

[The New F'n Show]

See what happens this week going in a new time slot.

[Troy]

Decent rise from the first hour to the second. Has TNA started airing an hour earlier in the US? Maybe that explains why the rating was weaker for the first hour because some fans forgot about the earlier start.

 

[The New F'n Show]

No Troy this week starts the time change.

 

[Troy]

Thanks for that Scott.

What rating do people think that TNA will draw this week? New start time and most importantly it is live. I am going to predict a 1.25 rating.

 

[The New F'n Show]

1.25 seems high to me 1.15 more likely.
