Pinnacle Television Prop -- Does this seem like a lock?

[Shakes]

No, I don't think Survivor would have fallen off so much as to get beaten by the two comedies. Those two shows are already pretty much established and have their audience. It would be a stunning premier if UB beat Survivor.

Basically, I think we're talking about ABC brining in nearly 20 million new viewers to this time slot, and I don't think they have done nearly enough promotion to do that. I watch more tv than the typical person, and I hadn't even heard of the show until I saw it on Pinnacle.

It just hit -400... I wonder how long they leave this up.

I'm starting to agree with you now. I've been through what must be 20 websites and although it seems to be actually quite popular amongst people who have seen it. They do tend to be reviews by, er, non-typical viewers.

It seems that it will do quite well, but I can't find enough bad stuff about Survivor to make me think that Survivor will fall below it, and I can't find enough good stuff about Betty to make me think it'll have a stunner.

I'm going to be leaving this one alone, but if you put a gun to my head, I'd take the survivor side as of this moment.

Where are those numbers from, Lori?

I think it is going to depend on if people are a fan of the teams in survivor separated by race. I have never heard about ugly betty though so I have no idea on that one

It doesn't seem that many people are fans of it, but reality fans are a tough breed and will sit through a farce as long as it's their fave show (I sat through a total joke of a Big Brother this year)

I think it's an close win for Survivor. Last week Survivor only mangaged 17.26 million viewers vs. 13.46 for a clips episode for Grey's Anatomy. I still think Survivor wins it by no more than 2 million. I see it as 17.5 for Survivor vs. 15.75 for Ugly Betty.
