BB 15 is averaging the same as BB 13 with the officials so far.

Agree with everything. Looking for +1 is a pisstake at the moment and even the officials without +1, but to be honest, DS did release the BARB officials with +1 a day early (last Sunday) but when BARB updated on Monday, a lot were missing +1 as they didn't reach the +1 Top 10. So all of the +1 officials do include +1, but Wikipedia has gone by BARB and had half of them missing the +1.

The timeshift this year has been ~400k so there is no reason it can't beat BB12 and BB13's 1.6m at this time, like I said, if it stays the way it has, we are looking at 1.7m

And again, agreed at BB14. It did slay, Daley's ejection and the aftermath getting 2.10m and 2.11m were brilliant for civilian BB and still remain the two highest highlight show on Ch5 for a regular BB, along with both Sallie's eviction going over 2m and Dan's eviction almost hitting 2m (I think).This is the time last year where the ratings climbed (Week 3-ish) and hit it's peak between Week 5 (Daley) to Week 7.

Nope

BBUS Ratings
6.64 million - Launch #1
6.56 million - Launch #2

We Americans don't lose interest in a show just because the Housemates are bad. We just root for the others.

Your population is about over 300 Million so you have about the same ratings as the UK, bye

Not really, BB is still a rating success in the USA. It beats most of the scripted shows on ABC, FOX, NBC and even CBS.

The amount of networks and shows that actually air in America... their BB is a huge hit.

oh

It's odd, BBUSA is one of the only current BB that has been increasing over years.

BBUSA has always struck odd with me. It's true. American media is LITTERED with so much television, not to mention english-speaking channels. I read somewhere that one channel 'Univision' is in fact America's 6th most watched Channel, despite being almost all in Spanish!

BB does a great success for CBS, and compared to some shows such as Family Guy, whose ratings are around the 4 million mark, while other shows like CSI are hitting 9-10 million it seems to strike a balance between 'enough'. The show has a wide following, not just in the USA, Canadian ratings for the show also regularly top many viewing figures charts around over a million, (these are even better for the Canadian edition)

They need to release as much viewers as possible to bulk up these figures

Anyway found the +1 for Friday ....FINALLY

Big Brother: Power Trip live eviction 1.21

Big Brother: Power Trip live eviction 1.3 (+1 added)

It came last in its slot.

Just me or are these +1 figures way down aswell? I recall last summer adding around 200k an episode but now its 90k and even 50k the other night.

Heres an example from Friday nights schedule showing the audience is still there and +1 adds a great deal extra to the ratings with other shows.

8 Out Of 10 Cats 1.21 (same as BB)

Then add +1 of 200,900

8 Out Of 10 Cats 1.5

You would think this Helen situation would be making the headlines and dragging in viewers because to me she is the Daley incident 2.0 every highlights show.

Lets see what happens when she gets ejected, walks or has a breakdown when the inevitable happens and Ash leaves. There may be another "gate" brewing which is what we need :)

933k for bbuk bit on the psych had 419k

I miss toya :bawling:

That's bad

Toya was in last night's HL's...

I didnt watch the show last night.
Only last 15 mins of it. For some reason i dont feel nessacry to watch over eviction night apart from last 15 mins which is the aftermath of the eviction.

Excluding +1, isn't that the highest rated Saturday?

it is I believe

same I watched transformers on c4 instead Lol

Oh excluding +1 :facepalm:

yeah Jemal I didn't watch most of yesterday either or Friday, don't really have the time or interest in this series anymore bring on BB16

without a live feed can't really get into bb now last year was great having them two hours nightly

I hate that opinion.

The Saturday show literally shows 5 minutes of the eviction and the rest is a new highlights show.

After almost a decade and a half people still cant get that into their head.

933k (4.5%) is without plus 1, +1 will probably add around 50k I think nothing to get excited about it should be released later today.

If the share is more important Channel 5 surely aren't happy with 4.5% when I heard somewhere they would be happy with a reliable 6% for the highlights.

Big Brother Xtra @BigBrotherXtra · 8h

Last night's BB has crashed with the ratings again only 933k tuned in!



Big Brother Xtra @BigBrotherXtra · 8h

and you can forget Bit on the side, that only managed 419k more people watch Postman Pat on cbbc! :hehe:

BBXtra don't understand how BB ratings work. I don't see how it 'crashed' when almost every Saturday show for a regular series on Channel 5 has been around the 1m mark for the last three years.

Live feed again... it's nothing to do with that. The fact is that the show isn't what it was, and Live Feed isn't enough to bring back old viewers.

He needs to get his ratings correct it was only 30k off hitting the million mark +1 added 67,000 viewers so its correct over night is 997k right?

Lets compare it to the new TOWIE which is getting around 600,000 at the moment :) that should make us feel slightly better lol.

Not great but its a Saturday and ratings have generally been down and to be honest not a huge drop off from what the highlights are getting.

I agree, look at what TOWIE is getting like you said. Normally BB gets at least double than TOWIE with 1.2 and over.

I know nothing about ratings...is that really all Towie gets? :eek:

I'm quite shocked at that btw. Oh and I don't watch it never actually seen an ep but I thought it was really popular.

I see the highlights dropping to like 800k by the end of this series. BB14 was just so much better than this series in every single way and the numbers say it all.

:joker: mess

I think getting 1m on a Saturday is decent for the series, after it logged only 1.6m for it's 2nd launch, I would have thought that it would have gone to around 700k at this point on a Saturday against World Cup.

It's an extremely solid performer, very static, 900k-1m for Saturdays, 1.2-1.4m for highlights/evictions. No more, no less.

From DS:

Friday
Channel 5
21:00 - Big Brother - Live Eviction: 1.29m (6.6%)
22:35 - Big Brother's Bit on the Side: 0.69m (5.0%)
23:35 - Stand by Your Man: 0.21m (2.5%)

Saturday
Channel 5
21:00 - Big Brother: 1.00m (4.8%)

You can't really complain if compared to other shows, look at Stand by your Man :shocked:

I know its weird, its made some of the cast millionaires, household names even yet BB housemates are on tv everyday and don't emerge celebs even though they are on tv everynight for 70 odd days.

How much did you think it got? lol Its not doing to bad actually this series its about 300/400k behind BB not bad when its not even on a proper channel.

The day TOWIE beats BB is the day BB dies for me.

Sunday 22nd: TOWIE 920,000 including +1

Sunday 22nd: Big Brother: 1.3 including +1million

Wednesday 25th: TOWIE: 771,000 including +1

Wednesday 25th: Big Brother : 1.1 million including +1

Stand by your man got 21,000?

Is a sad site to see looking at the eviction ratings though I don't think we expected these 1.0/1.2 and under and Sunday shows are really not up to the usual standard but are proving the highest performing day on +1.

u will be surprised lots watch bb for the live feed

Didn't the eviction get 1.3? I know its only a small difference but 1.21 and 90k on +1 is 1.3 right?

0.21m is 210,000 mate, but yeah, a flop. 21k would be 0.021m. Imagine that :laugh:

And with the 1.29m and 1.30m, not too sure, maybe there was a difference of being tapechecked so 1.30m could be the actual rating.

If the scrapped stand by your man and replaced it from live from the house they could get 700k-1.0m in raitings, when will silly channel 5 learn.

Agreed, it has worked in the past. Lets say 1.3m for the eviction, around 700k for BOTS, I reckon Live would get around half a million (which would result in a higher share than BOTS).

I remember during CBB9, Live Feed was hitting 1m on 5*! I think one of them became the highest 5* rating of all time.

also Agree look what Live feed got last Monday officially BIG BROTHER: LIVE FROM THE HOUSE (MON 2203) 1.18

Omg no I meant 210,000 hahaha!
