Episode 1.09 Did Take A Drop!

[koenigrules]

The HHR for BSG 1.09 was a 2.13.
But the new Law & Order show aired as well as the Monk finale, so it did face stiff competition.
I hope it picks up this week.

What's the source on the 2.13 rating?

Also, I believe this week is when the show airs half an hour later than normal due to the 90 minute long SG1 episode, is that correct? If so, I'm afraid the ratings might be affected, as some people might not know about the change and miss the episode.

Some may even have to be in bed by eleven!

I would say that as a cable show and a sci-fi show this is as good as it is going to get. Many came on to check it out 3 mil or so, and those that did not like it have left, loosing a few hundred thousand is to be expected.

As long as it stays with in 2-2.5 range we are good, if it dips below 2 mil, season two will be a very short season indeed.

It's my source over at Sci-Fi.

Oh, OK. Sorry, I haven't been paying attention in past weeks, but has the source always given you numbers that match what Sci Fi later reports officially?

All except for one week, Episode 1.07.
The rest have lined up very well.

I think it was a dull episode anyway which probably turned off a lot of viewers.

I think the Tigh me up was a poor episode in comparison with the rest. The next one though is the best. Hand of God is good because it stands on its own and you dont really have to know the history of the series so far. Hopefully new people will watch it and get hooked.

OK, cool. I've added the ratings info for the last two episodes (in italics until confirmed by Sci Fi Wire) to my ratings website:
