The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien thread - Page 3

Ratings update....

Last week, Letterman posted a 2.6-2.0 victory for the week over Conan.

Conan still does better in demos, but Letterman is closing the gap there. They tied in 25-54, Conan narrowly won 18-49 (1.1-0.8) and still has a large margin if you narrow it to 18-34 (1.1-0.5).

I think the plan is to let Conans audience age with him. Over time, the 18-34 will become the 25-54, etc.. In the year 3000..

Please tell me someone else around here has caught tonight's episode.

Norm Macdonald is the best!

i wish there was a way to get mobile text alerts when Norm MacDonald appears on Conan. I missed it, of course.

There's a part 2 on hulu as well.

Meanwhile, a prediction that by next year the median age of viewers on "The Big Three" networks will top 50 for the first time. CBS has been there for several years but both ABC & NBC are expected to hit the mark as well.

And Neilsen says fully 1/4th of the TV universe is now over 50.

Dovetails nicely with Disney scoring their fourth consecutive year with the most watched scripted show on cable over the weekend (a movie length Wizards of Waverly Place), which pulled double the total viewers of anything on primetime Friday night.

FYI I am going to see Norm October 2nd and I couldn't be happier. STFU Lowell Mather.

Lathum · 09-04-2009, 08:41 PM

sterlingice · 09-04-2009, 08:47 PM

A Sweeping Victory for David Letterman - Media Decoder Blog - NYTimes.com

And now the demo excuse is over. Letterman beats Conan in 18-49 for the first time, 1.3-1.0. The 1.0 matches the lowest numbers Tonight Show has ever received in that demo.

I really do like Conan (albeit not as much as Letterman), but this has been a disaster for NBC.

Media Life Magazine - Longtime coming: The rise of 'Nightline'

With the late-night landscape in turmoil, as "The Tonight Show" slips to record-low audiences and David Letterman heading off a sex scandal, ABC's "Nightline" is perhaps the steadiest of the Big Three shows at 11:35 p.m. It's also, for the first time ever during the November sweeps, the most watched. The newsmagazine just barely edged CBS's "The Late Show with David Letterman" for first place among total viewers during the one-month period, averaging 4.15 million to the latter's 4.12 million. "Tonight" managed just 2.39 million. "Nightline" also prevailed among adults 18-49 in an equally tight race, with 1.38 million to "Late Show's" 1.31 million. "Tonight" was third at 1.3 million. The irony of "Nightline" emerging as late-night's No. 1 show is that 19 months ago the program's future seemed uncertain, with ABC's pursuit of Jay Leno sparking speculation that the network would cancel "Nightline" if they got him.
