Title: KNT Initial Run Ratings Post by: felineki on July 02, 2010, 09:38:31 pm I recently came across what appears to be complete record of viewer ratings for KNT's initial run here (http://logsoku.com/thread/kamome.2ch.net/asaloon/1241727365/) (post #837). The post didn't actually specify a show, but the dates seem to match KNT perfectly, and one subsequent poster states that KNT is the only show they can think of that matches the dates provided. Here's a transcription, along with translations of the comments that I can make sense of:
1990.02.01 7.8% 1990.02.08 8.3% 1990.02.15 7.3% Effective(?) lowest ratings. 1990.02.22 8.1% 1990.03.01 8.8% 1990.03.08 7.7% 1990.03.15 9.1% 1990.03.22 9.2% 1990.03.29 8.2% 1990.04.03 5.9% First airing in new time slot. 1990.04.10 8.9% 1990.04.17 12.1% 1990.04.24 9.3% 1990.05.01 10.5% 1990.05.08 9.9% 1990.05.15 9.3% 1990.05.22 9.4% 1990.05.29 10.2% 1990.06.05 8.8% 1990.06.12 10.4% 1990.06.19 8.6% 1990.06.26 9.3% 1990.07.03 7.6% 1990.07.10 9.3% 1990.07.17 8.6% 1990.07.24 10.6% 1990.07.31 10.4% 1990.08.07 9.9% 1990.08.14 5.0% Lowest ratings. 1990.08.21 9.6% 1990.08.28 11.2% 1990.09.04 12.6% 1990.09.11 10.9% 1990.09.18 11.5% 1990.09.25 14.0% 1990.10.02 11.2% 1990.10.09 9.8% 1990.10.16 12.0% 1990.10.23 12.3% 1990.10.30 13.1% 1990.11.06 12.9% 1990.11.13 11.4% 1990.11.20 11.5% 1990.11.27 14.6% Highest ratings. 1990.12.04 12.6% 1990.12.11 13.9% 1990.12.18 12.0% 1990.12.25 10.2% 1991.01.08 11.7% 1991.01.15 7.9% Sudden drop due to airing on Coming of Age Day (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coming_of_Age_Day)? 1991.01.22 11.3% 1991.01.29 13.4% 1991.02.05 12.9% 1991.02.12 14.2% Ends on a high note of 6.4% higher than the premiere and only -0.4% lower than the highest ratings of the run. Average ratings:10.32% Highest/Lowest ratings:14.6%/5.0% Post Ep. 13 average VS Ep. 1-13 average:+27.9% This falls in line with the numbers mentioned in the AnimeNation Ask John article (http://www.animenation.net/blog/2007/08/02/ask-john-was-samurai-pizza-cats-successful-in-its-time/) I've previously mentioned, and shows that viewership actually steadily increased as the show's run continued. |
