So your saying that a bunch of people could be watching Tru and the networks not know it just because the people weren't using Nielson thingies?
 
Well, the whole idea is that the sample *supposedly* (Beckinsale, lets not start arguing about this 😛) approximates the country as a whole. So the Nielsen people would say that a bunch of people watching the show would be reflected in the sample.

But, in the real world, yes, a greater number of people could be watching the show than is estimated.
 
Why don't they go on the web and see how many people are talking about the shows on Forums and do it that way.
 
They do. Joss told the Firefly fans that was the best way to send a message to Fox to do a Firefly movie. However, the fans on the internet represent a very small portion of the viewing public. Fox knows there's us crazies and know the kind of fan following Eliza has. Plus, there's so many TC fans from foreign countries that don't watch FBC and who Fox TV Distribution views as a problems since they're downloading the episode.
 
I hope that they do make a Firefly moive, because that show is great. I know that most people from outside of North America are downloading the eppys, plus you can count me in on one that started to watch the show because I liked Eliza as Faith. But I love the show, so I am going to continue to watch it.
 
There is going to be a Firefly movie. Universal bought the rights from Fox and greenlit the project. But there's no start date yet.
 
i never understood the nielsen ratings until i read some of the posts in this thread but i hope the show reaps in more viewers....thanks for posting that 🙂
 
I agree. I absolutely adored tonight's eppy. My friend and I called each other right after we watched it and were like 'OMG, that was so freakin good'...

So...I'll be one ticked off viewer if this show gets axed.
 
I watched it last night, but I missed the ending because my mom took over the TV. But OMG I would have to say that is my second fave eppy after last weeks eppy. I liked the opening, but the last 2 eppys are my faves.
 
o jeez, they better keep it on air, its such a good show! the episodes are getter better, and more people seem to be watching it...hey, spread the word! tell all your friends/family about the show, make em watch it! lets get better ratings!
 
I was just wandering if Tru is on for you this week? Here in my town it plays on CH, but this week its not on. I hope that it hasn't been cancelled.
 
No, it's not airing this week. It's Thanksgiving (American.) A lot of shows are either airing repeats or are pre-empted.
 
Thanxs for the information. I was wandering why Tru, Joan and Jag weren't on this week. I keep forgetting that because I am in Canada, and ours was last month.
 
I do really hope ratings pick up. It would be so good if this show did great since it is suck a great show, and the episode "Past Tense" was awesome. It kept you guessing the entire time. People really need to give this show a chance and start watching it!
 
I thought that the last two eppys were really good. And yeah last week's kept you guessing.
