We await the cumulative figures for the first full week of Piers Morgan Tonight on CNN. The Thursday show did not significantly improve things, with Morgan's interview with Ricky Gervais attracting 279k viewers in Morgan's self-stated key demographic of 25-54 year-olds. Fox News' Hannity show scored 557k.
I love comments on US websites - gems here from TV Newser.
Of course there was no ratings bump. Who wants to see a prerecorded, edited conversation between two elitist English blokes, sipping beers and talking about the Golden Globes...an event which ceases to be relevant after 24 hours?
It would have been news had these two Brit-blow-hards actually made good ratings. What is CNN smoking over there?
Ricky Gervais was scheduled against the first new Office of 2011. They asked themselves, "When will everyone who wants to see Ricky Gervais be watching something else?" and scheduled Ricky for that timeslot. Idiots.
Watch for a cloud of silt as this venture sinks softly to the bottom where it will settle in and slowly come to rest
