BB13 Ratings Thread - Big Brother Renewed For Summer 2012

[Vladimir]

CBS was back in action with new Big Brother and the one hour premiere was enough for CBS to take the night both with adults 18-49 and total viewers, and was the night’s top program by a wide margin. The premiere was up across the board from last year, up 8% in adults 18-49 to a 2.7 rating, up 5% with adults 18-34, up 14% with adults 25-54 and up 5% in total viewers to 7.71 million.

I'm happy that people still watch BB. :D

[reece(:]

Yes, good ratings means more seasons! :hugesmile:

[Matt]

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that's the highest rating season premiere since at least BB8?

[Vladimir]

^You're right. :)

It was the best premiere in households and adults 18-49 since season 8 in 2007; in adults 18-34 since season 7 in 2006 and in both viewers and adults 25-54 since season 6 in 2005.

[Callum]

Great ratings, I could tell they were going to be good because Jeff & Jordan and Rachel & Brendon were trending for a while on Twitter.

[Jords]

Get in there BB!

[BBfanUSA]

If Big Brother beats out AGT in the ratings by the end of the season its going to be big

[reece(:]

2 seasons a year please!

[Matt]

Sunday's episode attracted 7.16million viewers - apparently it was the highest rating Sunday premiere EVER! :shocked:

[RST3K]

2 seasons a year please!
After BB9 that will never happen again.

[Vladimir]

Sunday's episode attracted 7.16million viewers - apparently it was the highest rating Sunday premiere EVER! :shocked:


Amazing!! :shocked:

[Matt]

Last night's ratings are in - 7.25million, making it the highest rating Wednesday premiere since 2003 (although there were no Wednesday episodes between 2004-2007 or in 2009)

[MeMyselfAndI]

These ratings are brilliant

[swinearefine]

I hope they don't go down now that Dick is gone.

[Matt]

I'm afraid they are down - last night's eviction attracted 6.48million viewers, a drop of 18% on last Thursday

[reece(:]

a million people were only there for dick i guess

[Jords]

:(

[Jords]

a million people were only there for dick i guess

:joker::joker::joker::joker:

[Macie Lightfoot]

a million people were only there for dick i guess

We'll see. The second week's ratings always go down from the first week.

[iRyan]

I think people are confused by the schedule because normally there aren't two episodes 2 days in a row.

[BBfanUSA]

last year was two episodes days in a row at the same time (7/8c) last year this year evictions are at 8/9c here in the states because they show reruns of a popular show here called the big bang theory here and a crap sitcom

[Sawyer]

Just watched the BB premier, it's the first BB USA I've watched and I'm liking what I see.

[Vladimir]

Big Brother topped the broadcast night with adults 18-49 with a 2.4/7, and 6.8 million viewers, down a tenth from last Sunday.

These numbers are great! :D

[Macie Lightfoot]

Yeah even if the numbers are slightly down from the first week (which always happens. Premieres draw more viewers, it's a fact), it's still winning it's time slot consistently.

[Vladimir]

7.02 million viewers for wednesday's episode. :)

[BBfanUSA]

7.02 million viewers for wednesday's episode. :)

Yay and can u update the top of the page

[Vladimir]

^It's done. :)

[Vladimir]

CBS swept the night winning in the advertising coveted demographics and with total viewers. Big Brother was up 9% versus last Thursday to a 2.5 adults 18-49 rating and 6.7 million viewers.

[Callum]

Great to hear, but then again BB never has any major competition in the summer. :laugh:

[BBfanUSA]

8 is still great in the summer first 8 mil ep this season

[Vladimir]

CBS’s Big Brother was up 8% to a 2.7 adults 18-49 rating and CBS was second for the night with adults 18-49. It was Big Brother’s largest Wednesday audience since the premiere and its best performance with adults 18-34 all season.

With a 3.1 adults 18-49 rating, Big Brother was up 11% and saw season highs (on any night) and hit season highs in adults 18-34 as well. It was Big Brother’s best performance in adults 18-49 since September 18, 2007 (the Tuesday finale for that cycle).

[Jords]

:shocked:

[Jords]

America loves The Brechel Show :love:

[BBfanUSA]

UH wasn't thursday's show higher than that

and Jords maybe they like to see them go home

[Callum]

UH wasn't thursday's show higher than that

Yeah, this? :conf2:

I think people are tuning in to see how annoying Brenchel are

[Vladimir]

It was season high in adults 18-49, not in total viewers. TV channels care more about the 18-49 demo than total viewers.

Pending adjustments Big Brother was up 11% to a 3.0 adults 18-49 rating versus last week when there were several local pre-emptions for CBS.

These numbers are great!

[BBfanUSA]

YAY and BTW i think 13x16 is actually 7.64 not 8.64

[Vladimir]

Actually, it's 7.12m, dropped a lot in the officials.

And here is how BB13 ranks against previous seasons of BB after 19 episodes:

BB4: 8.4 million
BB3: 8.3 million
BB5: 8.1 million
BB13: 7.32 million 2.5
BB6: 7.2 million
BB12: 7.05 million 2.4
BB8: 7.04 million 2.5
BB7: 7 million
BB11: 6.68 million 2.1
BB10: 6.26 million 2.1
BB9: 6.09 million 2.3

WOW!!

[Callum]

What about BB1?

[Vladimir]

I have no idea why aren't there ratings from season 1 and 2, I found this on another forum. :) I know BB1 wasn't popular, would like to see its ratings.

[BBfanUSA]

I know this is preliminary but sunday got 8.82 million :)

CBS easily won the night with adults 18-49 and total viewers as Big Brother rose 10 percent to a 3.2 adults 18-49 rating to go along with its 8.48 million viewers. Big Brother matched its season best adults 18-49 rating and had its best performance with adults 25-54 and its biggest audience since September 2007.

[Callum]

Not surprising, last night's episode was epic.

[BBfanUSA]

i was surprised that they fit a little of the event 24 hours before

[iRyan]

Fantastic! I wonder if ratings will drop though now that Daniele and Jeff are gone.

[BBfanUSA]

I don't think so but if they do I think it's going to be 7 mil

[Callum]

Probably will, Jeff is America's favorite houseguest.

[lostalex]

Fast Forward nights are always the best episodes. I think even though the numbers will go down, they will still be better than last year, cause last year's final weeks were soo boring because the Brigade were unstoppable at that point. The final weeks are definitely going to be better than last hyears final weeks.

Also i think people will look forward to seeing the Jury House footage that they will start showing soon.

[ff10wakka]

Rachel and Jordan will still be there for at least another week and a half though so the ratings should still remain decent.

CBS's Big Brother rose 10% from last week and tied its season high 3.2 adults 18-49 rating, dominated the 8pm hour and lead CBS to the adults 18-49 ratings win on the night.

[BBfanUSA]

hmmmmm it didn't for POV ep

[BB_Fan_09]

The ratings for tonight's show might be really low because CBS is showing football games instead of Big Brother for many parts of the country. In the New York area, Big Brother will be on at 1:37am instead of the regular 9pm Thursday time.

[BBfanUSA]

7 million calling it now

[iRyan]

7 million calling it now

Ratings are going to be way worse than that. Did you not see the post above? It's showing at 1 AM in some areas.

[JeanP!]

GRRR I hate football

Even without NFL pre-season or substantial MTV competition like last Sunday, Big Brother ratings slid from last week's 3.0 adults 18-49 rating to a 2.3/2.4 rating.

:/

[lostalex]

Wow, people miss Jeff a lot!!!

[Vladimir]

...or Daniele maybe.

[Firewire]

It didn't air in some parts of the US until past midnight because of football.

[reece(:]

dani is a big miss!

[Callum]

...or Daniele maybe.

No, it's definitely Jeff. He will probably win America's Favorite Juror too :sleep:

[Roy Mars III]

These ratings mean Jeff will be in season 14. And he won't be able to be voted off till the final three in a special twist.

[lostalex]

It didn't air in some parts of the US until past midnight because of football.

Oh yea i forgot about tht, in most of the US they had the first pre-season NFL games. Firewire is right.

[Roy Mars III]

It didn't air in some parts of the US until past midnight because of football.

There were no pre-season games last night.

[Firewire]

My bad.

[lostalex]

well i dunno what kind of games they were, but it didn't show here til 2AM after that scottish idiot. Some kind of football was on.

[lostalex]

And next week they arn't even gonna show it at 2am, they are cancelling it entirely for the 9/11 cry-fest.

[BBfanUSA]

And next week they arn't even gonna show it at 2am, they are cancelling it entirely for the 9/11 cry-fest.

:wavey:that's reserved for the clip show anyway

[ff10wakka]

You would think that J/J fans would still watch because Jordan probably going to win again :)

[Roy Mars III]

You would think that J/J fans would still watch because Jordan probably going to win again :)

While people like Jordan, I think Jeff is more popular than her with the casual fans.

[rk3388]

they are cancelling it entirely for the 9/11 cry-fest.

and they should! i know someone who died in 9/11 btw :shocked: its important to remember those innocent people

[Roy Mars III]

and they should! i know someone who died in 9/11 btw :shocked: its important to remember those innocent people

Agreed. Especially since it's the 10 year anniversary.

[BBfanUSA]

Big Brother USA has alot of connections to 9/11. Monica on bb2 had a relative that died (was missing at the time) and Enzo worked somewhere nearby in the NYC area and could see it. And the incident was revealed to the final 3 hgs on the same day on BB2

Alex from BB9 also lost his father in 9/11.

Ratings drop was probably because of the massive power outage that happened here in California.

BIG BROTHER, the summer reality hit that is wrapping up its most successful season since 2004, has been renewed for its 14th edition to be broadcast next summer on the CBS Television Network.



This summer's edition of BIG BROTHER delivered its largest audience and highest adult 18-49 ratings since 2004 with year-to-year increases of +4% in viewers (8.11m from 7.80m), +11% in adults 18-49 (3.1/09 from 2.8/09), +4% in adults 18-34 (2.5/09 from 2.4/08) and +12% in adults 25-54 (3.7/10 from 3.3/09).



BIG BROTHER also saw growth online as CBS.com's BIG BROTHER website was up +18% from last summer, while subscribers to CBS and RealNetwork's 24/7 live streaming video feeds are up +10%. BIG BROTHER also saw robust social media growth, particularly on Facebook and Twitter, while on cable, BIG BROTHER: AFTER DARK, on SHOWTIME 2 is up +8%.

BIG BROTHER, hosted by Julie Chen, follows a group of people living together in a house outfitted with more than 52 cameras and 95 microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day. Each week, the Houseguests vote someone out of the house. The last remaining Houseguest will receive the grand prize of $500,000.



BIG BROTHER 12 is executive produced by Emmy Award-winning producer Allison Grodner and Rich Meehan for Fly on the Wall Entertainment, in association with Endemol U.S.A.


It's official. :D

[Roy Mars III]

Not a surprise, but still great news!

[Ryan.]

Is jealous for BBUK

[Callum]

Great news, I hope it's a cast of newbies next year who really want to play the game and not be scared to make game moves. I wonder what it would be like without Julie Chen hosting, I can't see her sticking around for many more seasons really. I don't think it would be the same without her though.

[MeMyselfAndI]

Woo, BBUSA does so amaze:D Well it is probably better than the UK version. But this season has been good, but it has alot of faults. so in otherwords average lol. Danielle leaving early & some of the twists made it uneven and not as intereting.

[BBfanUSA]

I read an article and noticed two things wrong with it

1. at the end it says bb12
2. this season was creative... NO IT WASN'T AT ALL STOP RECYCLING COMPETITONS FOR F### SAKE!!!!!!
