Checking in on SF/F TV Ratings
OK time to look at 18-49 demo ratings changes for science fication and fantasy genre shows comparing the week of Sept 24 - Sept 30 to the week of Oct. 3 - Oct 9.
NOTE: Ratings of "2.3" means about 2.3 million households with 18- to 49-year-olds were tuned in. A "#2" behind a program's name means it was rated as the second-most-watched show that night for 18- to 49-year-olds
