Friday’s prim time is not a sure death or is it

Hi guys as I build this blog and try to figure out how I would present it I just read something that just makes me scratch my head.  There are web news sites that seem to have the idea that if a show is moved from say Mondays nights to Friday nights it must be a 1. A stinker 2.the series ran its course 3. It’s just an ok show see what it can do here. 

It’s a given fact that Friday nights has a smaller audience than any other night of the week. But for me if a show can hold its audience numbers from its last time slot or may drop a few points on Fridays nights I think that at this time net works should give these shows some leg room and support them for a season or two more.  I know it boils down to money and I have series doubts about the old and out of date nelson ratings concept.   

I think there is a need for change in this regard, let’s have a look at DVRs play back and streaming on line like Hulu. These are numbers that are just being missed and it could have an impact how we view our favorite shows.  Please let me know your ideas on the subject and email me and I will repost and we will discuss it more on a later date. 

Peace and long life.
