It's the title of her show, and it's a triple entendre (I do give her cleverness credit for that):

1) Roseanne has macadamia nuts.

2) Roseanne is nuts.

3) Roseanne has cojones, in the figurative sense.

Yup, since digital, it's truly easy for them to log & store the info. At some point, there won't be a need for the Neilsen ratings, or even for the classic "ratings week" when all the networks put on the really great episodes in hopes of getting a higher rating. Why rate only a specific week, when the data is available for all 365 days?

However, organizations that track TV ratings haven't quite figured out how to collect info about who watches a particular TV show online.

I've been watching it just because it's on the Big Island. We're finally moving there Sept 5th. Bought a place in HPP last year, and my daughter and our one year old grandaughter live nearby. We've gone over evry chance we got and have spent enough time there that we know we love it there.
My wife went over one time, and I could,'t go (no time off). She was at the open air market in Hilo and saw Rosanne and her guy there.

It is harder to tell who watches online streaming, at least who in particular. They can still note that a show has been streamed ten thousand times, but then what do they do with that information? With digital cable, or satellite, then know that I watched In Plain Sight. Not that they care, just yet; most data is still used as an aggregate. Some day the fact that I watched that show will mean I get certain advertisements or offers, but that's not here yet.

And I have heard that unfortunately more data doesn't mean better interpretations - this is not limited to analyzing TV data.

Just felt I needed to comment on JoDan's "Ever seen the damage these invasive species do to the natural environment? If you had, you might not feel that way."

Yes, the wild pigs are invasive and are slowly killing the native forest ecosystem. And hunters kill pigs. That does not mean that hunters want to eradicate pigs (far, far from it), nor that eradicating pigs means killing them (it just means getting them out of the native ecosystem, though it's probably much cheaper to kill them than trap and remove them).

Well, they are shipping some of the feral donkeys to California, maybe that state needs feral pigs, too?

Nope, got plenty here

Ok, when and where is this show on? Now I've gotta give it a look.
