break it down into terms I can understand.

good or bad?

Thought I'd post for the first two Delocated episodes.

Feb. 2
Delocated (Adult Swim, 12 AM)
-1.294 million viewers
-0.53 A18-49
-0.80 A18-34 (549280)
See all P2+ ratings for the whole week

Feb. 9
DELOCATED ADSM 12:00 AM
1.463 million viewers
0.6 A18-49
Using the conversion table, that's about 566,102 A18-34.

Looks like Delocated is hovering around 550K. Not too shabby.

As long as Adult Swim is happy with the ratings - we should see more Delocated in the years to come.

Gonna make a post for Thu. Mar. 15 and Sun. Mar. 18.

Interesting Thursday numbers. 3:30 CH/NTSF outperformed 12:30.
And on Sunday, there was a big dropoff between AUPS and Frankenhole, leading to a rather dismal end of the night.
Perhaps that's why Frankenhole was pulled so quickly. We'll find out if the ratings improve next week.

Here are the ratings for Thu. Mar. 22 and Sun. Mar. 25.
These are all viewers, not just the ones in the demo.

Thursday is a weird night. Again, 3:30 CH/NTSF beat the 12:30 airing. Delocated continues to do well.
On Sunday, you continue to see the precipitous dropoff from Loiter Squad to Frankenhole.

MORE RATINGS! This time for Mar. 29-Apr. 1. I'm going to include the dismal Saturday Live Action block too, just to show how horribly it did. I didn't figure airing live action on Saturday would bring in beau coup ratings.

My theory that Frankenhole was a drag on the rest of the block is a bust for now, although AUPS did much more poorly than it did last week. There is a 100K dropoff for Check It Out! regardless of its lead-in.

I made a thread about this in the Eagleheart folder, but I figured it deserved a mention here, because these are some seriously big numbers. This is for the second episode, "Bringing Up Beezor."

Thursday night’s new episode of the Adult Swim original series Eagleheart (12 a.m.) ranked #1 in its time period among adults 18-34, 18-49 & 18-24, and among men 18-24. Compared to the same time period last year, average delivery of adults 18-34 (802,000) increased by 38%, adults 18-49 (1,043,000) by 21% and adults 18-24 (562,000) by 89%.

You read that right. That's 802,000 viewers among adults 18-34, Adult Swim's key demographic. If you haven't been following the ratings, this is a very big number for an Adult Swim live-action program, which normally gets in the 550-650K range.

Good for Eagleheart, it deserves it.

I'd really like to see AS run more premieres weekdays after Family Guy. The results speak for themselves while Sunday premieres aren't getting what they used to.

[itsacoaster]

I couldn't agree more.

Just look at how well Thursday does compared to Sunday (Apr 26 and 29). It's not even close. Look at the 3:30 replays of Eagleheart and CH. That's crazy.

Forget that Check It Out is doing poorly. Half the viewers on Sunday have already checked out between Loiter Squad and AUPS1. AS ought to consider either front-loading its premieres earlier in the night or moving them to weeknights. They could even air an encore on Sunday. It's clear that airing Metalocalypse and Eric Andre after half the viewers have gone to bed is not getting the most bang for the buck.
