I guess it will be interesting to see how bad Saturday does. I'm definitely not expecting any phenominal numbers from it, especially considering the fact that Inuyasha has the lead-off spot.

Well aren't you a little bright ray of sunshine.
Well, he has a point. Put the show that seems to appeal to everyone AFTER the most polarizing show on the block that new viewers won't get unless they've watched the last 80something episodes. Pure programming genius.

My point is that Saturday's lineup is great right now, and it's sad that thanks to Inuyasha probably not performing at Futurama or FMA standards, comedy will probably have to come back to interrupt the lineup again. Just speculation.

Pure programming genius.Most polarizing show on the block? New viewers? What the ****? They put it there because Inuyasha's one of the most popular anime series on AS and it's airing new episodes, and they figure people will stick around for Champloo.

I think thats why IY isnt part of premier rerun night because if Futurama has to be brought back IY would get the boot and move easily to a weeknight new episode run as had been planned

Just speculation. AS has enough confidence in Inuyasha getting first or second place in the ratings to have put it on at 11PM. PA and s-CRY-ed very likely wouldn't have preformed as good as Futurama either, I doubt any anime series would (AS knows this)... and AS wants to try to not put any new episodes of any show at 1AM if they have to.
If the lineup does decently I see AS keeping the schedule as it is for Saturdays.

Well, to be fair, polarization and popularity aren't mutually exclusive. Robot Chicken is both very polarizing and very popular. And Beatdigga does have a valid point. Inu-yasha is already past episode 100, so if they intend to get new viewers it probably won't work too well. However, I don't really think they're trying to get new viewers to the anime, I think they're trying to get viewers who already watch Inu-yasha to watch the rest of the block. Nevertheless, Inu-yasha didn't perform too well the last time it was a lead in, of course, back then no one knew that Adult Swim was on Saturdays. Hopefully now that people know that Adult Swim action is on Saturdays they'll tune in.
But, I think it's true that a lot of people like the other anime but hate Inu-yasha. Just skimming the message boards at adultswim.com it would seem like Samurai Champloo is one of those rare shows that comedy viewers who don't normally like anime actually enjoy. I think Samurai Champloo may have made a decent lead in, but it obviously is not as popular as Inu-yasha, at least not yet.
I think thats why IY isnt part of premier rerun night because if Futurama has to be brought back IY would get the boot and move easily to a weeknight new episode run as had been planned
I think that's because they don't have room for it. Inu-yasha already airs reruns 3 other days of the week, so they'd rather give repeat night to Robot Chicken, Tom Goes to the Mayor, Samurai Champloo, Paranoia Agent, S-cry-ed, and of course Family Guy and American Dad. There's just no room for Inu-yasha there. And there's really no need for another episode of Inu-yasha on weeknights. For that matter, even if there was one, it would just confuse viewers. Viewers watching the episodes on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday would tune in Thursday and be confused by the seemingly out of order episodes.

There you go. Inuyasha's where it is based on its previous performance and predicted continuing performance. Probably why it's on at 12:30 weeknights too. New viewers will watch if they're interested (DBZ kept going up and up even after 150 episodes). If Champloo outperforms Inuyasha, then good for it :). Besides, Inuyasha has one of those "This is what we've been doing" short stupid recaps every 7 episodes or so. I didn't understand why Beatdigga was criticizing Inuyasha being at the front because they want it to get new viewers. Isn't that what they want for every show on the network?

Something to keep in mind when the ratings are shown. The Spurs/Suns game was still going when Inuyasha was on, which will probably have a significant effect on its performance. The game ended halfway through SC, I'm not sure what kind of effect it will have on that one.

And notice that nobody gives a damn about Sunday's ratings...
I kinda doubt that there's many Inuyasha fans who are also Spurs/Suns fans, though.According to Shonen Jump, the vast majority of anime and manga fans have little in common with "normal" people.
And I loved every part of that "Paranoid Shampoo" card. AS needs to repeat it.

it's not too good of an idea to make a solid prediction til a few weeks pass and we have a trend. especially on a 3-day national holiday weekend. when Venture got bumped off, Inuyasha beat GitS, but then GitS outperformed it every week after except for one.

Okay, Sunday had the excuse of being Christie's Night of her favorite episodes (AKA Reruns.) With the exception of the basketball game (don't mean to stereotype everyone, but I think we can agree the vast majority of anime fans aren't sports fans) Saturday had no real excuse for those ratings. Memorial Day weekend, haha good one. I'll just pretend those ratings were from last year until I see the ratings next week where if they're similar or worse will be bad news.

06-06-2005, 01:45 AM
Alright, I've settled on my Champloo/Inuyasha thing. Champloo would be a much stronger lead-in. It has a vast appeal that Inuyasha doesn't have. Able to grab anime fans and those "crunk" kids who "don't need a rubber to make a girl feel good". So, yeah, there is no excuse really. But I suppose we could chalk it up to the whole scheduel revision. Those are just too....average.

I usually don't post but I have to raise my glass to Trigun. AS is gonna have to put out a double dollar bounty to make people watch some of these premieres. Ah well there will probably be some return to normalcy next week and Vash will ride off into the sunset.

A part of me was expecting the ratings for last week to be all over the place.... It will probably return to "normal" on next week's ratings report though.
PA and s-CRY-ed aren't on the Top 3, but I'm not surprised since they are shows that probably are hard to get into for most of the audience.

I think this is the first time AS has reported which run they are rating. Previously, we just assumed it was the first airing of the night being reported. But here, they were reporting whether it was the first or 2nd run of the night that got that rating.
Having a show pull in more viewers on its 2nd run than its first isn't surprising, though, given that a lot of 18-34s will be getting in from their night out, too restless to sleep, so they turn on good old AS.
And then there's the notorious erratic nature of Saturdays, soaring one week and crashing the next. I think the variability has a lot to do with the local events each weekend in the towns and cities where the Neilsen families live. These have a disproportionate effect on the 18-34s who are the most likely to go see hot local concerts, bar bands, sporting events, festivals etc.
And while I'm a staunch Inuyasha fan, I agree they should have reversed the first hour, putting Champloo first and IY 2nd. Either show could readily follow One Piece (and eventually Naruto) on Toonami. Champloo is the strongest of the new anime they have, while Inu's loyal fans will be there whenever IY is run.
I'm not surprised by not seeing PA or S-cry-ed in the top 3. S-cry-ed is a slow-building show that's been around for a while. PA is a surrealistic series that's hard to grasp, especially without subtitles for the signs, text, etc. that are important for understanding the episodes. I was glad to see AS realized the PA signage problem and will correct it. Here's hoping that they insist on subtitles for the Japanese signs and text that're important to the story in all future dubs they buy. (^_*)

06-06-2005, 12:22 PM
It's strange isn't it. Inuyasha fans always gripe about it being on too late but when it airs early the ratings aren't as good. Though Champloo after 4kids One Piece... just doesn't seem right. But I suppose we need some quality entertainment to wash our mouths out after that one. I'll bet FMA could do much better in that 11PM slot and hopefully they'll put FMA in that slot as soon as AS gets the rest of the series because Inuyasha at 11PM just doesn't work like you think it should. But if they have to do a quick fix... moving Champloo up would be perfectly acceptable... It's certainly the star attraction of the block at the moment. Though I wish PA could get it's due.
This also testifies that if Trigun's on. The fans will watch and en-mass.

That wasn't an excuse. I gave no excuse for the ratings being that low, I was simply stating a fact.
I think this is the first time AS has reported which run they are rating. Previously, we just assumed it was the first airing of the night being reported. But here, they were reporting whether it was the first or 2nd run of the night that got that rating.
The only time they report which run they're rating is when the repeat run actually places a show in the top 3. The only other time I remember this happening was on a Sunday night about a year or so ago in which the second showing of the Brak Show got into the top 3.

The Collector

You know, I'd think that if SC was this hugely successful show that some people here think it is, it would beat out the shows playing a couple hours after it, but that's just me. We'll find out next week if it was simply a very strange night or if it's an unfortunate trend. I'm holding to the opinion that the NBA game had a lot to do with it, we're talking mainstream ratings here, not just devoted anime fans.

The fact that the repeat of Inuyasha beat the first airing makes it pretty clear that there's something fishy about these ratings. Stuff like this has happened before. I know it sounds unlikely, but maybe the long weekend does have something to do with it?
I'll be waiting to see next week's ratings to get a better idea of where everything stands.

Guess they felt Action could stand on its own now because people knew about it being there. Besides, everyone sure seemed happy it was gone over in the thread that originally announced it.
Here's your spin. Inu-Yasha scared off all but the dedicated anime fans, which seem to number about 400,000.
Futurama, Family Guy, or American Dad will return in about a month at this rate.

If things are going bad. I fully blame Inuyasha. Even I care barely enjoy it these days. Saturday's line-up is not a failure it's Inuyasha. They need to bring back FMA for that slot before they decide to bring in another comedy infusion. FMA proved it could get the main audience watching better than Inuyasha has lately. Hopefully FUNi will get them the tapes soon.

Zyzzybalubah
06-06-2005, 08:30 PM
Personally, I believe FMA, Champloo, or Futurama should just open the block. Honestly, I was very surprised they went with Inuyasha to open the block being that it originally opened AS Saturday's return and we knew those ratings weren't good news (around 100-200k right?) Seeing that Fullmetal Alchemist would occassioanlly beat out Futurama or have a strong second place performance, you would think they would give the opening spot to that show if it wasn't going to be Futurama. It's their highest rated anime ever (sure Inuyasha is second, but correct me if I'm wrong, IY's ratings have never reached FMA levels.) I'm sure people would still watch FMA reruns (I catch them a good deal of the time weeknights even though I rarely watch AS weeknights.) Champloo had a strong following after Futurama it's first night, but I would be questionable putting it as an opening show right away (even though it does have great appeal.)
If ratings improve, then great. If they stay consistent or sink, then like Beatdigga said, make room AS Saturday, because Futurama is coming home!!!
Blaming Inuyasha for last Saturdays poor ratings is pretty damn short-sighted. The action block should be able to garner decent ratings without having to use a comedy show as a crutch. Anyway it's only the first weekend (and a holiday weekend at that) so going "Chicken Little" over the ratings is kind of needless. It's probably best to wait a week or two and see if this is a trend or not as Vegetable said.
Oh and because I'm curious, could someone please explain to me how Inuyasha was able to pull in 400,000 viewers at an a.m. hour if it really turns viewers away?
The Collector
06-06-2005, 11:45 PM
(around 100-200k right?) If memory serves, it was closer to 300-400k, at least for Inuyasha, while WR pulled 200-300k. As far as FMA eclipsing IY's ratings, remember that IY never had the ratings boost that AS being considered its own channel gave all the shows on Saturday. Wait another week or two before declaring changes should be made already.

I say it's just a case of the 'new' sickness. Give it another week or two, and everything should fall into place a little more properly. Whether this experiment is good or bad should be apparent soon enough. I have to say, I really hope it's good.

This really is one of the most cynical forums on the internet. It's bad because Trigun is an old show that's been re-run quite a few times, yet this ratings report seems to indicate that more people want to watch that than the new shows. It's bad news for the new shows, theoretically.

I considered Futurama sort of a bellwether for Saturday ratings.
It sort of gives an idea of what potential the night holds.
So, what would be considered good ratings now?
I'd be thinking they would want shows over 500,000 and expect the same growth they've been getting.

"Ay, yeah. I was watchin the ******* Adult Swim tonight, and ****, I thought I was readin a mother****in LIVEJOURNAL on my ****in television! Why y'all got some ******* chink screamin 'yellow pride' and all this ********? Pardon."

Has anyone noticed that whenever Shake gets burned he almost always says "Dracula called and he's coming over" Is that the only comeback he can come up with?

Hmm, sooner than expected. Delicious. And I assume it'll be the first because it's earlier than Paranoia Agent. Since I would expect it's next episode to follow with the same rating.

Hmm, too bad. They are going to have cut some content at plot TV-14. It's a pretty raw episode.
