Out of the Blue

I haven't mentioned MrsBlue's and my favorite new comedy of the season up until now, but since the season finale for Better Off Ted runs tonight, it's probably too late for the show to be cancelled... this season at least. The show is indeed on the bubble for next year, but with the BlueTower tuning in every week, the show is lucky it wasn't Ted on arrival.

Oh yeah, happy Cinco de Mayo (and happy birthday B.J.)!

Actually TIVO Specifically tracks when the show is watched and reports skips and all back to the mother ship if connected.

I recall TIVO reporting that the titty-flash in that one Super Bowl Half-Time was the most rewatched event in their history, so I would imagine they also know if 90% of the TIVO audience skipped all the commercials of a specific broadcast.

I am not sure about the other Cable DVR, Dish and DirectTV options. I use Dish, but my DVR isn't connected to a land line (Who has land lines anymore???).

I am fairly confident that the primary Nielsen rating does not take into account DVRd shows that are watched at a later time, even for Nielsen Families.
