Ratings Down Across The Board
Filed under: TV News
Where were y'all? Under the covers crying about the shitty state of our economy?
Why weren't you glued to the tube in support of the networks' big Thursday night shows?
The new seasons of Grey's Anatomy, Survivor AND The Office premiered Thursday to LOWER ratings than the previous season, according to a new report.
- Grey's was down 18%
- Survivor down 12%
- The Office down 6%
Ugly Betty was another premiere loser on Thursday. It slipped 15% from last season, marking its lowest-rated debut to date.
Was there something going on that we didn't know about?
Wonder if y'all will be back to 'normal' next week.

photoshoot
I watched Grey's and Ugly Betty. Love the Lilo and Betty fight with food!
I WAS MASTURBATING!
Was Betty any good last night? I went to see Kathy Griffin last night (who was AMAZING!!!!) and I missed it.
I LOVE GREYS. And betty. But that episode premier of ugly betty kinda sucked

Re: LettyB –
eww I hope you washed off the rotted yeast….
um….i took nyquil and went ni-night
i was reading a book. those stupid shows SUCK, why would i watch them? nothing good ever runs on thursdays.
I watched MSNBC adn CNN all day yesterday! I think most Americans like me are more interested to keeping up with what is happening with our economy than some stupid sitcom!
This is what happens when you go on strike. Your audience loses interest. Now those greedy bastards can get a higher percentage of nothing.
1st off you are a loser if you can't afford cable amylala. 2nd those shows suck. 3rd Kitchen Nightmares was on from 8-10. Love that Gordon Ramsey!!!
Why would steve carroll be crying? He has the face to do gay porn!
Well, I was watching ER and BAWLING my eyes out! Best spisode in YEARS! IT WAS AWESOME. If you have not seen it and need a good cry - go to www.nbc.com and watch it. I seriously cried from about 12 minutes after it started until it was over!
GORDON RAMSAY KITCHEN NIGHTMARES !! YES I LOVE HIM
Who the fuck has time to watch TV? I have not seen any of the above shows ever.
that's pretty weird
haha I watched survivor, & tivo'd grey's, ugly betty, & the office
I'm really surprised about grey's
the office was verryyy good last night, sucks if you missed it
SNAP CRACKLE AND FUCK!
I watched the season premiere of the Office last night! Screw Grey's.. that show sucks.
Who gives a shit?
Re: Akasha777 – I SO WATCHED THAT! FUCKING LOVE RAMSAY!
Re: WakeUpPeople – Well look at the Big Brain on You!
Re: State ziti – You're a loser if you can't afford cable? You must still live at home. They're are more important things to pay for in the real world.
We are not normal………….. hahahahahhahhahhhhhhhhahahwwwaaaaaaw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Grey's was FABULOUS…I am really hoping they are back on track with some funnier stuff like the first season. Loved it, I really like the approach they took with Callie and Hahn.
I almost did not watch, last season was so flat…I really thought it was in the end of its run, but last night was great. I also loved the teaser of McDreamy dying…and Rose's hilarious prank…OMFG that was fabulous….he deserved that.
Re: Akasha777 – I missed last night's show but I agree. It's better than anything else that was on last night.
Well, after the writer's strike, and the choppy TV scheduling, I lost my loyalty for these shows.
Re: MacombieHomie – oh, I watched ER too. last year they wrote off shane west, not they SPOILERR..
kill off mekhi phiper. I don't know if I should even watch this season?
i was too busy watching Supernatural to care about the other shows. Hot guys > all that other shit.
I have 200 channels and only watch 5.
so any big plans this weekend?
Re: abercorey – NOT EVERYBODY HAS PROBLEMS WITH DIRTY GENITALS LIKE YOU ABERCRACKY! YOU FUCKING MANWHORE!
Re: harrysnatch – GETTING DRUNK!
No advertising…I found out last night that Grey's was on at 9. That was the only time I saw a preview…it was good though. I love Grey's Anatomy. Don't think it needed to be 2 hours though.
My cable went out in the last minutes of this show. I really would like to Thank Time Warner Cable, because this first episode sucked!
I didn't watch lasnight because I was to busy getting drunk…but I have the DVR. Will watch later while I am busy being hungover.
Re: harrybalsac –
he's still tied up in my basement
he's fun like that
BITCH SLAP FOR ABERCRACKY!
Do you get your stuff from anywhere besides the Drudge Report?
This is pathetic.
I watched Ugly Betty. I love that show! I attempted to watch Grey's for the first time just because it was on after Ugly Betty, but I couldn't stand it. How do you people watch that shit? It's so stupid.
Re: abercorey – i don't watch any of them even Betty, i'm a bad fag.
Re: State ziti –
i'm a loser and you worship gordon ramsey!
lord you are a douche!
Shit! I love Grey's and Ugly Betty and I didn't even know they had premiered last night! I thought they were both repeats! The fact that they were both on at the same time might have affected ratings?
REFRESH!
Hello….. It's TiVo. No one watches TV anymore, they record.
Re: harrysnatch – Think about you while I make a mess in the shower.
Jim & Pam forever.
BOOHAHAHAHAHA!
