The SciFi Channel rules Friday
This info is coming straight from the pages of the Futon Critic, and it is great news:
SCI FI owned Friday nights during 3Q05, becoming the #1 cable network on Fridays among P18-49 and P25-54. The strength of the 'SCI FI Friday' franchise was proven with its recent summer finales. In spite of stiff competition from network premieres, the 'Stargate SG-1' finale (Sept. 16 @ 8-10pm) and a new episode of 'Battlestar' (Sept. 16 @ 10pm) were Top 2 cable entertainment programs among P25-54 that night. A week later, the summer finale of 'Battlestar Galactica' (Sept. 23 @ 10pm) drew 2.3 million viewers and became the #1 entertainment program on cable for the night among P25-54 – it was also the only non-news program to finish within cable's Top 10 among that demo.
#1 entertainment program has a nice ring to it... I can imagine the conversation going like this from now on:
Someone: "Hey Trapper, what show do you watch?"
Me: "Why I chill with all my 25-54 bretheren watching the #1 entertainment program on cable! What do you watch?"
Someone: "I am stuck watching Monk"
Me: "That dude is jumpy..."
(no fans of Monk were meant to be harmed in the writing of this post... the one episode of Monk I watched, was decent...)
