Chattanooga Data Arrives..

Nielsen has changed their distribution of sweeps data this time. In all previous major sweeps, Nielsen burned data on DVDs, then used FedEx to ship them to third-party processors. With the slow roll-out of monthly data (for some markets) came electronic distribution of sweeps info.

Premium RDRx clients got their data today. The most senior of them all goes first.

By close of business today, Chattanooga time, WRCB will have completely revised quarterly and specials Selling Books based on November 2010 data.

Monday, December 27th Back To Chuckathon

Hmm... this is becoming a trend.

Monday, December 27th, is going back to being a CHUCK marathon night, with 3 episodes of CHUCK airing at 8, 9 & 10PM ET/PT to give the show some extra sampling over the holidays.


Monday, December 27th:
8:00-9:00 CHUCK (Repeat)
9:00-10:00 CHUCK (Repeat)

This removes an encore Walk In My Shoes.

Next Monday Night Changed Again!

Back to a 2 hour SingOff, then Perfect Couple at 10pE/P, then a repeat Office at 10:30p.

In the last three days, both Fox and NBC have announced changes for the next week's programming and within hours, voided the change and rescheduled yet again. Is Fox learning bad habits from NBC?

Plus Thursday, Dec 30th prime as well.
