New England Sports Network's Red Sox broadcasts dominated Boston TV ratings last week, locking up eight of the most watched programs July 29-Aug.4. The top rated network show was news magazine program "60 Minutes" which came in 9th with 236,000 total viewers. And TNT's "Rizzoli & Isle" came in #16 with 161,000. (Hmm...could that have anything to do with the fact that the show is fictionally set in Boston? It's filmed in Los Angeles though.)
Meanwhile down south, football and Spanish soaps scored the most viewers in Miami/Fort Lauderdale. Of note, VH-1's "Love and Hip Hop" came in #24 with 126,000 and WSVN-Ch. 7's 10 p.m. newscast came in #28 with 115,000 viewers. And William Levy's new telenovla "La Tempestad" popped in at #12 with 137,000. Here's the breakdown for the two markets:

Is the ridiculous CBS/Time Warner blackout affecting Miami? I thought it was an affected market but I can't seem to find where I read that or what the affected markets are outside of LA, NY and Dallas.
ReplyDeleteIf so, does Time Warner have much market share down there?
Hi Terrence. The blackout isn't affecting Miami.
ReplyDeleteI figured it out! It was Boston. ha! Fortunately, I believe Comcast has a dominant market share in that area so it's probably not as much of an issue there as it is in NY and LA.
