ok so supernatural? absolutely fantastic. definitely worth the download. and CROSSOVERS FTW! you might throw up at one point (i seriously gagged) but it's so amazing.

anyway, just because i don't want people jumping down my throat for downloading it, i'm going to give a small lesson on ratings.

Hee. That reminds me of when I was an electronic media major. But one thing... The random sample is random but at the same time not. They make sure they get different regions, classes, and ethnic groups, because back in the day they didn't. Like when TV first showed up Rating in new york would decide it all which isn't exactly a good sample of America's population

yeah what i meant by random i meant you can't just go and say "hey let me help." they have to give them to a certain demographic, but they aren't supposed to know "who" actually gets them.

and yeah it's not something that should be solely relied on, i was just pointing out that downloading the episode on itunes isn't going to take away from the ratings, cause i can almost bet that the main fan base of supernatural aren't nielson homes.

And really if you're that nervous about it. Watch it when it comes on TV too.

[crunknwj]

exactly. no harm in watching it twice.

Is it very hard to educate people on how TV ratings work.. some people honestly don't get it. That's really why I try not to get wrapped up in the ratings anyway. To think that a CW show would ever rank amongst the big 3 (or 4) is just silly.
