Watching Nielsens Top 20

by

Here’s a link to Nielsens Top Numbers for last week and it’s not what I would have thought at all.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by anything anymore, but I was kinda, by the fact that Samantha Who, which I think is one of the least good new sitcoms this year, is on the Top 20 list, and none of the others are on there. I’m talking new sitcoms here, not old ones, cause there are a couple of those on the list. I suppose it has something to do with Samantha airing a new ep last week when most of the others (maybe all of the others) were repeats.

Another thing that surprised me was that I saw very few, if any, of the shows I watch listed in the Top 20. Granted, I was busy last week and maybe didn’t watch as much TV as normal, but overall, very few of the shows I like and watch are on that list.

judge-judy.jpgI only saw House, Law and Order:SVU, Jeopardy (which I catch occasionally) and Judge Judy (which I watch religiously, cause I just love her!) The Top 15 Cable list had some movies on there which I’ve seen, but which I did not watch again last week, namely, Santa Clause 2, High School Musical 2 and Elf.

Call me crazy, but most of the stuff I saw in the Top 20 just didn’t appeal to me at all. So now I’m wondering, am I watching the wrong stuff or is everyone else?
