[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 444320, member: 57984"] This was the first week of the 1975/76 season. And many of the shows -- THE JEFFERSONS, MASH, etc... --- were at the top of the ratings in 1975. So why so low this particular week? Well, there were a lot of popular, hit shows at the time, so one assumes that despite their superficial rankings, some of which appear "low" here, their actually headcount numbers were probably petty close together, and closer than the week's rankings might suggest. So, by the end of the season, the year-long average would make a little more sense. PS: in 1975, the size of the television audience collectively, when the three networks still dominated, was nearly at its largest. [/QUOTE]
