Amazing for someone in the 5pm time slot to carry 3 million viewers.

Hold on dems, Beck is back and is actually growing in viewers.

Your little left wing mobsters tyrants did not work so well did they?

5PM – P2+ (25-54) (35-64)
Glenn Beck– 3,040,000 viewers (888,000) (1,385,000)
Situation Room—688,000 viewers (141,000) (271,000)
Hardball w/ Chris Matthews—536,000 viewers (139,000) (217,000)
Fast Money—215,000 viewers (55,000) (80,000)
Prime News–267,000 viewers (97,000) (109,000)

Poor CNN and MSNBC were of course millions BEHIND Beck combined!

Way to go Glen! Expose that idiot!

Even poor Ted Kennedys specials for 2 hours did not draw that many viewers.

Hey dems, GLEN IS BACK!! Bigtime!!!!!
I couldn't watch it live because I was in on the road and out of state so before I left in the morning I set my timer recording (something I haven't used in over 2 years) and all I could think about all day was, it better work. If I miss Rush on Beck, I'll explode. Of all days not to be home... So, then I get home around 8:00P and head straight for the TV and WOOHOO! it worked. But I'd like for Glenn to have Rush on live sometime. Sounded like Rush would be willing.

Anyone think maybe Rush's diet might be a precursor to a TV show should the Dems try to strike down Talk Radio? He's been on Greta a lot, too, lately.

People love a spectacle. And Beck is the cable news spectacle supreme.
But the above is pretty sad. Why do people watch this crap?

Americas top talent / American Idol are also horrible

I happen to know a lot about TV ratings. I'm an avid watcher and follower of TV and ratings and I even have a blog about it.
I dont think this means anything since Glen beck is news/talk and Royal Pains is crap. What is the highest rated news show? How does Glen Beck compare to this?

again.. you all miss the point entirely.

I was comparing Cable to cable. Obviously it's not "crap" since it has a large viewership.. so much for crap

The only reason why his numbers hit 3M is because of the current controversy surrounding him. THAT is the point I was making.

BTw.. I'd rather watch that "crap" and lose myself in a fun TV show.. then to hear actual REAL crap coming out of Glenn Beck's mouth. THAT is true crap!

True Blood gets about 5.3M viewers and was the top rated scripted show on TV. It's breaking records for HBO. It's also tops in 18-49.

I write a blog about TV, ratings etc.

Most liberals do not know what day it is let alone what is prime time.

Most of them do however know when the 1st day of the month rolls around!
