Last night the Real Housewives of New York City entered uncharted territory as, with a 19th episode airing, its fifth season became its longest. The first tranche of the RHoNY Reunion only managed to attract an audience of 1,700,000 (and a 0.80 in the 18-49 demo). Sadly, in overall viewers that’s less than the 2nd reunion episode from last season that Andy Cohen said caused the major recasting this season. What’s more, is that that viewer total is lower than even Season One’s reunion way back in 2008.

For the last 16 weeks Miss Advised and then Gallery Girls took the 10pm time slot after RHoNY, and as for RHoNY’s first two Season 5 episodes, this week RHoNY repeated with the repeat airing scoring an additional 1,012,000 viewers (18-49 demo 0.4). While this boosts the cumulative RHoNY audience, it also diluted the 9pm first airing’s ratings which might give Bravo PR some leeway to explain away the ratings decline. Read more

Sunday night saw the 13th episode air of this season’s RHoNJ and was it a lucky episode for the viewers or the cast? As the men sat down to discuss the upcoming Napa trip they all laid into the latecomer, Joe Guidice, both before and after he arrived, but in the end they all showed that bitchiness is definitely not just a female trait. In the fight over the ‘lost’ tools it is just too easy to joke which of them most looked most like one.

On Sunday night the RHoNJ cast & crew traipsed to a tradeshow, an ice cream parlor and a concert venue in the name of business promotion, resulting in an episode that felt like an hour-long advertisement. Nevertheless, the ads came with a healthy side of drama and flatulence, so all was not lost. In fact this ended up being the fourth highest rated episode of the 12 that have aired so far and was significantly higher than our forecast of 2.2-2.4m with 2,642,000 viewers tuning in and scored 1.20% in the 18-49 demo. That helped push this season’s average back above 2.5m keeping it more or less level with both seasons 2 (0.4% down) & 3 (1.5% down). Read more

Bravo Ratings – Bravo TV News & Projections Week July 15 – July 19, 2012

With Sunday’s ratings not released until Tuesdays at Noon Eastern, we turn our attention at Bravo Ratings on Mondays to the schedule for the coming week and make a few predictions on how various shows might rate. The original programming kicks off on Sundays with RHoNJ and this 4th season has seen some wildly fluctuating ratings. 11 episodes in, four episodes have scored in the 2.2-2.3m range but overall the season average to date is just shy of 2.5m, meaning that other episodes have scored much higher. There’s been a 32% swing between the highest and lowest rated episode which shows some serious volatility in the audience. Of course, as Bravo repeats each episode several times this allows viewers to pick and chose their own time slots (as of course do DVRs & Tivos) but it also detracts from the water cooler buzz that has helped make some of Bravo shows ‘must watch’ when it first airs. For this week’s 12th episode of RHoNJ S4 we’re seeing a little slippage in the buzz and estimating 2.2m-2.4m. Read more
