When you become a "Nielsen Household," there's a little box that is connected to your TV, which records information on your viewing habits, which shows you watch, when you watch those shows. From that pool of Nielsen viewers, they then come up with the ratings composites. It's very similar to sociological research in Academics in how they generalize and come up with ratings and ratings patterns (the problem with this being that it's difficult to determine a proper sample size. Only .02% of homes participate in Nielsen research, but that's about 25,000 televisions. Not to mention that services like Hulu aren't factored into ratings at all)

As for DVR data, that's considered, but only after the fact. It's not included in things like segment breakdowns or the fast number that we get on Wednesdays, but it's usually something like a 10% bump (maybe a little more than that, since more and more people are watching things on DVR).

It's not terrible, per se (their resistance to including DVR numbers in reported ratings at the behest of advertisers is complete bullshyt though), but with the way that media is consumed nowadays, measuring this one thing and taking it to be the be all and end all of television consumption is a bit of an anachronism. Whatever.
Thanks Breh.

And what about folks who watch shows through HULU? I do that a lot too and wonder if they know or count that stuff.

They could count it and include it if they wanted to, but there are issues (specifically with viewing shows on the internet) of not being able to measure demographics or overlap between viewing platforms (such as someone watching the TV and internet feed of a show at the same time).

Then, yet again, there is the problem of advertisers, who don't pay for timeshifted ads. So numbers on platforms like Netflix (no ads) and Hulu (different types of ads from TV) aren't counted for that reason as well.

Honestly, when you really break down Nielsen ratings, they're increasingly becoming non-representative of the American population's viewing habits. You can only put so much faith into them, because so many things complicates the measurement and affects its accuracy.

I heard the podcast

Real talk Metlz fell off a long time ago

There was a time when dude was on-point with his "inside snitch knowledge".

The only thing the observer is good for NOW is "logic" in wrestling (which Lance Storm is the best @ when he's on their shows)

Aside from that all you will hear from that fakkit Metlz is "I really think that's what Vince was......." & "That's what the word was backstage...."

Doublespeak fukk-boi "I'm 80% sure this will derail his push, But I would not be surprised if it has no effect if things change"

Fake ass fakkit be on his chris broussard multiple sources shyt

Dude has never had shyt on lock since Dave Lagana got fired.

Watch when D-Bry starts moving weight in merch and gets portrayed as that "guy" bytch ass Meltz will fallback and change his tune

I had a feeling it was D-Bry he was talking about when I heard it. :rambo:

Fits the pattern of HBGOAT being in Bryan's corner but not showing it overtly, only mentioning him once in a blue moon on twitter.

:salute:

Now all of a sudden is "they had no other choice with Punk" when year and a half ago it was "welp, that's another low rating. I'm not saying they are going to pull the plug but he's not their prototype for a superstar..." :pachaha:
