National Nielsen Ratings for "The Simpsons" and "King of the Hill"
Ondre Lombard
For about the 5th week, King of the Hill got stronger ratings than The
Simpsons. I suppose people were more interested in a unique story that DIDN'T
have about 8 minutes of joke-filler. ("I *rumble* don't *rumble* think
*rumble* we should *rumble* talk *rumble* unless *rumble* it's *rumble*
absolutely *rumble* posi-tively *rumble* necessary *violent rumble*").
Anyway, the ratings were as follows for Sunday night:
7 PM: Alien Autopsy: Fact or Fiction - Ratings: 3.8/8
8 PM: The Simpsons ("Mountain of Madness") - Ratings: 5.8/12
8:30: King of the Hill ("Plastic White Female") - Ratings: 6.9/13
(exceptionally higher than The Simpsons. Even 4 points higher than hit
X-Files)
9 PM: The X-Files - Ratings: 6.5/11

Hey Ondre,
Did anyone tell you that it's re-run time and people are watching the shows
they haven't seen yet! Get a clue!

All is right with the world.

So how does that work? Unless The Simpsons WASN'T a re-run this week,
that theory doesn't really hold water.
Share your "clue" with the rest of us, Mister Salty.

Yes, the numbers will change significantly because more people will be
watching TV. The low numbers networks as a whole have been getting this
summer is rare and a new development. Regardless of what people think, King
of the Hill is a successful show on its own. It got about 3 wins over The
Simpsons during the new season--one of which during Boston Common's
(infinite) hiatus. Furthermore, Touched by an Angel is stiffer competition
than 3rd Rock and Boston Common combined.

compete with the simpsons and KOTH have totally different audiences. i
mean 3rd rock and boston common are targeted at roughly the same
audience as the simpsons and KOTH, while touched by an angel appeals
(mostly) to old women and foot-washing baptists (who probably think
those other shows are the work of the devil anyway) Let the flaming
commence! and this isnt even a troll, really.

Fox re-ran THIS again? Yeah, I know about the Roswell 50th anniversary
and the box office success of (the very good) "Men in Black" and (even
better) "Contact", but still...how many times have they showed the
stupid thing? Has Homer or Dale or Mulder taken control of Fox?

Alien Autopsy isn't a "special." It's a summer series Fox has
programmed. It's apparently doing horribly, as it should.

Ondre,
What I can do to contribute to your Episode Capsules? I'd really like
you help you with them. Also, I would like to help with the the CHaracter
Lists, too. Well, let me know how I can join and contribute to them. :)
