Do you think starting this fall we should include late night in our daily ratings like neilson or keep it like we have it?

Keep it like we have it. They are primetime ratings.

How about you do this MSTV, my network is actually programming prime-time scripted programming at 11:35pm. You should do two kinds of overnights now, a prime-time one and late night one.
You should definitely start doing it this fall, I'm starting my late night lineup on Monday August 24, 2009 so we can start it then.

That's ridiculous, we already have latenight ratings. You can't extend primetime just because you want to.

We aren't extending primetime, I was talking about just the 11:35 and 12:35 talk shows, it won't be that much extra work, but I would enjoy "booking the guests"

What the worst that could happen? I think it'll be fun for those with a talk show to actually book guest and have a chance to boost ratings for huge guest like Obama or something. Monthlys are great but they only giving me only a small percentage of the story on how my shows are actually doing. Dailies are better b/c you can average them out for the week.

If we do them UPN you can't have random scripted programing each night

If we do them UPN you can't have random scripted programing each night Why not? I got to do it b/c I don't have room on my prime-time schedule for specific shows. I'm programming my schedule a little different b/c I need to counter program. If I do talk shows then that makes for a crowded hour of 6 talk shows. For your guys sake, you should be happy that I'm not adding another talk show to those hours.

NTB and EBN why such demanding answers?

Because it's a bad idea, you can still book guests. And UPN just wants to extend his primetime, and it makes it harder to do ratings with these extra 2 hours. I really think this is a lame idea.

No its a great idea, nobody has really thought of the idea to program scripted programming there. If there's a problem of doing an extra 2 hours then just leave it to someone who wouldn't mind doing it. As much as I like monthlys, they just don't really give you a good read of how your show is doing b/c they vary by the day depending on guests and other things.

And then there will only be one person doing ratings, because both NTB and I are against this idea. You are the only one who seems super into it.

My idea UPN can't do that, he didn't even ask me to do, I have been thinking of this.. And the ratings won't be that much harder, we do them the same then at the end of the thread: 11:35 EBN NTB UEN MSTV 12:35 UEN NTB EBN MSTV And ratings for late-night never change that that much...
