Ratings

[suiko]

I was just wondering if a history of Everwood ratings is available (online?) such as Nielsen's [which can be horribly confusing] etc. Don't get me wrong, I'd love the show whether it had a fanbase of 2 or 2 billion but I'd like to have a rough idea of it's popularity to give me a little firepower against friends who lack the class to appreciate Everwood yet

In particular, I was wondering which season was most popular, whether it's increased/decreased or stayed constant over the seasons, a rough average number of viewers, or even which country, per capita it's done best in.. Also, are numbers steady enough for future seasons to have the green light? I really hope so!

If you could use another show such as Dawson's Creek as a comparison to put the numbers in perspective that'd be really helpful too. I realise it's probably hard to gain such information, especially outside of the states, but any stats would be great and appreciated!

Suiko - go to TV TOME and then search Everwood. I just read yesterday that last weeks ratings were 5.4 million - a very pleasing figure for the WB. Everwood and 7th Heaven outbeat many of the other networks that monday evening.

Ah yes, Kia Ora! Guess we're not on the brink of extinction after all (although I'm the JAFA breed :p)

Those numbers are heartening! I was reluctant to read too much of TV Tome lest my eyes go astray and find spoilers ; NZ only just screened 'The Price of Fame' last sunday and I'm trying to avoid buying the DVD set yet or spoiling anything (plus it's a great way to start the week)

Thanks for the stats, and keep watching! I want *at least* a Dawsonly 6 seasons to reach here! (actually, how's about 12? or 24.. Yes that should do)

[Quinton]

haha yeah you jaffas you

But I'm one to talk. I was born there. :-/ But Welly and the East Coast are my home lol.

So you really haven't kept up with any Everwood spoilers? I tell ya, the rest of S1 gets really interesting. Pity TV2 screens the show on Sunday afternoons when NOBODY watches tv. lol.
