February 2011 Sweeps data has arrived on the Chattanooga server, and I'm enjoying the four-fold increase in PAVs to choose from. However, I wonder how those with less experience are handling this matter?
WRCB Sales Management will get email later today with a draft Master Planner.
Oh, it's the weekend.. Good thing it's cloudy, windy and cold in Las Vegas today.
And just miserable levels of Mulberry pollen in the air. So, with cat, blackberry cobbler and computers, I'm stayin' in today and rocking Selling Books. :)

Just a guess at this point, but perhaps they meant Saturdays? I've extended the initial run of In Wine Country replacing Bellator Fighting recently, as I have a feeling the quoted post above might be amended.

NBC Sports Estimates Refreshed
Each NBC Sports program from now until the 4th of July Weekend has just been double-checked for exact time, as well as the most accurate audience estimate with full rationale.
Next week, I'll begin working on Third and Fourth Quarters... right now, they are about 96% accurate, and that's just not good enough for my clients.

WRCB Has NBC Sports Updated.. Does Your Station?
The weekend of June 11th and 12th has been totally changed, including the hiatus of NBC Evening News on the 11th.
In the last 24 hours, twelve different NBC Sports programs in the next 4 months were added, cancelled or changed dates and/or time periods. It's easy enough to find out what NBC has done.
What's not easy is keeping up to date with the almost countless changes (ok, if you want to count, just look at the archives here.. I'm on vacation now)
For real broadcasters, there's also the issue of getting the inventory changed ASAP, plus creating and publishing updated audience estimates with new rationale.
WRCB can print out new Sports Planners today. If you wish your NBC station could, just ask your OneDomain rep, or give me a call.

Triple Crown Returns to NBC; June Sports Changes Announced
Now that NBcomcast has Versus to use as it's own ESPN-like sports channel, I'm going to guess we'll see a lot more packages of sports split over both NBC and Versus, with less popular programs airing on cable only.
Here's the reason a whole bunch of sports specials on 6/11 & 6/12 are being rescheduled:

We Love You, Maria.....
It's not the usual day a guy can look at a computer screen at his home office, and sigh and say out loud (presumably to himself) "I love you, Maria.." and then have his wife walk up from behind, and hear her say "yeah, I loved working with her, too." (she was an GE FMP and worked with Maria for about 6 years)
Without Maria's kind guidance, most NBC stations would be totally SOL re: NBC Sports. If you don't know which Maria we're talking about, you aren't an NBC affiliate.
If you are an NBC affiliate, and don't have an RD or RDRx service, you're missing out on hundreds of sports events each year. Give your OneDomain rep a call and we can get you on the road to actually selling the little gems Maria provides.

Already in RDRx Inventory: Inside the Royal Wedding on 4/27

NBC VIEWERS ARE SET TO BE TAKEN BEHIND THE SCENES OF THE SPECTACULAR ROYAL MARRIAGE IN THE SPECIAL ‘INSIDE THE ROYAL WEDDING’ ON APRIL 27
Matt Lauer and Meredith Vieira of NBC’s “Today” to Host Primetime Program Dedicated to Revealing Exclusive Preparations for Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton
NEW YORK, NY – February 7, 2011 – NBC will take viewers behind the scenes of the most anticipated royal wedding of the century – the marriage of Prince William and Kate Middleton – in “Inside the Royal Wedding,” an exclusive documentary special hosted by NBC “Today’s” Matt Lauer and Meredith Vieira, on Wednesday, April 27 (8-9 p.m. ET).

As a result, tension and drama ensue as details from dress design and flowers to the guest list and cake assume monumental proportions.

Ok, here's a factoid you didn't expect. On August 28th, 1963, as Martin Luther King Jr. and hundreds of thousands of others marched through Washington DC on their way to the Lincoln Memorial, they walked through Washington Circle.. where a half-blind, white bread future ratings geek stood on the curb with his father and watched in astonishment.
I can't say I actually saw MLK. But as best I could, I witnessed a massive change in our country.

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.

Undercovers Cancelled.. TBA replaces in 2011
LOS ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- NBC has canceled its freshman drama "Undercovers."
Network and studio sources have confirmed the Peacock won't order any additional episodes of the series, which is still expected to complete production on its original 13-episode order.
Last night's installment drew 5.85 million viewers and a 1.3 rating among adults 18-49, the latter of which tied a repeat of "Hell's Kitchen" on FOX and an original "America's Next Top Model" on The CW for third place in its Wednesday, 8:00/7:00c slot.
"Undercovers" is still on the schedule (November 10, November 17 and December 1), however beyond that remains to be determined. Six episodes - including the post-pilot installment (#2J5451) - have yet to air.
Bryan Burk, J.J. Abrams and Josh Reims are the executive producers for Warner Bros. Television.

Soft-Money Robo-Calls Jam RDRx Phone Lines til 11/2
Nutshell: Use email to reach me for a couple of weeks.. If you telephone, you might get lost in the Nevada Political BS.
-----------------------------------------
Wow, with all the money being spent on political advertising, you would think they could get better automated calling systems. Our offices are getting several calls each hour from various political and "research" organizations. That's what you get for having a published phone number in these days of politics by checkbook, I suppose.
So, from now through November 2nd, the direct phone line number you've previously been given will be answered by voicemail at all hours, instead of just Midnight til 8am. I simply don't have the time to answer, repeat my greeting and then wait for some crappy tape recording of "Hello, I'm with GPS Research.. did you know Harry Reid.." Click.
My knickers are in a twist for a couple of reasons. I have a BA degree in Political Science and have managed (winning) political campaigns long ago. But most of all, I hate the fake "research" companies... if there were humans actually calling from those lie-foundries, they would hang up on ME after a few moments.
Added the next day: Honest, I didn't know GPS Research was really Karl Rove's slushfund. I just knew they stunk... now I know why.
Added the weekend after the election: Funny, the Republicans don't seem to be interested in my opinion anymore. Phone lines return to normal.

"We believe in these new series and the creative auspices behind them."
Through October 11, "The Event" has averaged a 3.0 rating, 7 share in adults 18-49 and 9.1 million viewers overall in "most current" averages from Nielsen Media Research.
"The Event" has generated a 30 percent improvement in the time period versus year-ago "most current" results for NBC in 18-49 rating (with a 3.0 rating vs. a 2.3) and a 47 percent increase in total viewers (9.1 million vs. 6.2 million). On a percentage basis, "The Event" was the most time-shifted new series in adults 18-49 during premiere week from among the ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox primetime lineups, with 35 percent of "The Event's" "live plus seven day" rating being accounted for by time-shifting. Additionally, "The Event" was licensed to nearly 200 territories internationally even before its U.S. premiere, and is launching in numerous regions abroad to impressive ratings.
As of October 13, "Law & Order: Los Angeles" has averaged a 2.5 rating, 7 share in adults 18-49 and 8.7 million viewers overall in "live plus same day" averages from Nielsen. "Law & Order: L.A." has delivered a 39 percent improvement in the time period versus year-ago "live plus same day" results for NBC in 18-49 rating (with a 2.5 rating vs. a 1.8) and a 45 percent increase in total viewers (8.7 million vs. 6.0 million).
Through October 14, "Outsourced" has averaged a 3.0 rating, 8 share in adults 18-49 and 6.3 million viewers overall in "most current" averages from Nielsen. In the valuable adult 18-34 demographic, "Outsourced" is averaging a 3.3 rating, making it the #1 new series on ABC, CBS, NBC or Fox this fall. "Outsourced" is also heavily time-shifted, adding 19 percent to its "live plus same day" 18-49 rating when Nielsen issued "live plus seven day" results for premiere week (to a 4.29 rating from a 3.59), making it the top gainer among first-year half-hour comedies on the ABC, CBS, NBC or Fox primetime lineups.
