Bones comes out on top!
Okay, second from the top, but still, come on - that’s awesome! On the Nielsen TV Ratings, Bones came in second in it’s time slot for ratings during the season premiere last week. With and estimated 9.69 million viewers, it was outranked only by - huh?!? - America’s Got Talent on NBC with 10.15 million viewers. Weird.
The funny thing is that since it was a two-hour event, there was double the time for people to join in. Oddly enough, the viewers went up as the show went on, meaning that while it started out with only 8.77 million viewers, by the second half hour (8:30) it was up to 9.57 million. By 9:00 it was up again to 10.22 million - and that’s where it stayed until the show was over at 10:00. (Where they got the 9.69 since they finished with 10.22 I’m not really sure…)
I don’t know much about the whole ratings systems, and I’ve never taken much stock in what the “professional critics” or anyone say, but the numbers are still impressive. Way to go Bones!
