TNA rating drops big this week - 23% - Lowest viewership of the year!

[KingHill]

TNA Impact on Thursday, February 20 slid to a 0.95 rating, down 20 percent from last week's 1.18 rating.

It was the lowest rating since the first Impact of the year on January 2. Impact was at or above a 1.08 rating the previous six weeks after the Jan. 2 show.

- Impact drew 1.093 million viewers, down 23 percent from last week's audience. It was the fewest viewers of the year.

- In the key demos of males 18-34 and males 18-49, Impact slid one-tenth of a rating compared to last week. Meanwhile, teen males did not register a number.

- On cable TV Thursday night, Impact ranked #48 in overall viewers, #23 in males 18-34, and #24 in males 18-49. Impact was hurt by NBA on TNT, which drew nearly four million viewers for the NBA champion Miami Heat in action.

Also, Impact did not rank in the Top 100 cable TV shows among the broader demo of adults 18-49. It's bad timing when Channel Guide Magazine published Friday an interview with TNA president Dixie Carter claiming that TNA is diversifying its audience on Spike TV.

Oh my God! The year is 2 months deep. Not to mention they've gotten far worse. Fuck, there was barely any Dixie segments too. Closed due to ignorance.
