NBC Shortens Olympic Coverage for Voice & Superstore

I'm going to guess NBC's own research will use audience numbers from these Olympic lead-ins to hype these two shows for 4th Quarter Sales.

May 16 PAV based Estimates Published

My clients at WRCB already have management-reviewed and approved estimates impacted by the just released May 2016 PAV data.

And, they have inventory and updated estimates for ABC, CBS, Fox, CW and Antenna TV.

So, time for me to enjoy a toasted bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon, another cup of coffee, and (before I see any spoilers) last night's Game Of Thrones episode. 

The things we do for clients...

Mid-Summer's Night Eve Data

May 2016 Nielsen data for clients has just arrived.  I'll be working late.. 

Update: Just before Midnight on the 19th, PDT, I emailed a planner summarizing the May 16 book's impact on WRCB.  90 minutes later, I've also updated Antenna TV and the ABC competitive.  While I won't finish the CW and Fox updates tonight, I'll polish off the CBS station so the major newscasts in the market can be compared when station management arrives at their desks in a few hours.

After a short sleep tonight, I'll check for feedback from Chattanooga in the morning.

Waiting for CW's Fall Schedule - No Longer

NBC stations don't operate in a vacuum, and competitive sales management often looks ahead at primetime programming sold by ABC, CBS, Fox and CW.

Our clients have already been sent a 4th Quarter Prime Planner showing the entire prime line-up for each of the above networks, except for CW, who will announce their fall season tomorrow morning.

Update:  The fall season for CW is now in client inventories and estimates.

What's Your Cost Per "OOOH"?

“Television is not about ones and zeros,” Yaccarino says. “It’s about ooohs and ahhhs….We reach our fans, your consumers right here [pointing to her heart] where it counts the most. Only NBCUniversal brings together the art and the science.”

 http://deadline.com/2016/05/nbcu-jabs-digital-nielsen-upfront-sales-one-company-1201757180/

And the perspective of the New York Times is here.

"Then there was the smackdown line from NBC’s ad chief, Linda Yaccarino, who threw shade at Nielsen’s outdated ratings metrics and declared, “I’m happy to do their job for them."
