Hm. I've kinda just been assuming everything will be the same for the most part. I wouldn't be mad if they changed up the Dynamite into song and graphics a little though.

Idk exactly if TNT is offered in more homes than TBS. Don’t know exactly how that works as I don’t do cable anymore. But realistically if ratings were to drop, that’d probably be the reason why

I think if you have one, you have the other in almost all cases. TBS is the more watched channel overall though.

Ok then it shouldn’t be an issue. If anything, they’ll get back to 1 million plus consistently then.

The only caveat I can think of is that the programming on TNT lines up more with AEW's target demo I would think. But I also can't prove that and it might not matter anyways. Just a thought.

Airing at the regular west coast time instead if live at 5 p.m. should theoretically help too, I think it's just hockey on TNT that bumped them to airing earlier over there

It's def true but I also doubt it matters much in 2021

Yeah it should help . I did post they went down 30% in the east too so ptob won't go back to.1.2 right away but I also expect very strong shows to start 2022 w some big time talent mb coming in too

I think TBS is in more homes from my understanding, so yeah anyone with TNT should have TBS, and the off chance someone for some reason didn’t have TNT who wanted to watch (which probably isn’t that high) they could likely be able to watch now. But I don’t see that changing much. They just have to figure out how to bring in the fans

yeah i think by like 100-200 k or smth, nm, but they cross promote on each others channel a ton. ur rigth as well, the main challenge is getting ppl to remember to switch the channel. hopefully tnt has reminders day of as well to get ppl to switch
