PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"TAR-All Stars Ratings & Commentary" |
While skimming through the USA Today weekly TV chat transcript, I came across the following question about TAR and its ratings. Here's the text:"Little Rock, AR: Hello I have tried to watch the recent the Amazing Race but can' get into it because I really don't care about the teams. How are the numbers and are you a fan of this thing, thanks Robert Bianco: The numbers are terrible, and I tend to believe they're bad (in part, at least) because we had seen enough of these teams the first time around. Even the ones we liked have begun to wear out their welcome from over-exposure. It's a bad "Survivor" idea transplanted to "Race," and it's proving to be damaging. Still, on the subject of bad "Survivor" transplants, I'm sure many "Race" fans were happy to see the last of Rob and Amber. Now, let's pray to the TV gods that we have, indeed, seen the last of Rob and Amber. Talk about wearing out your welcome - these people are the guests who refuse to go home." Here's a link to the transcript: http://transcripts.usatoday.com/Chats/transcript.aspx?c=1132 As a TAR fan, I'm disappointed but not surprised by the poor ratings of All-Stars. (Wish Robert Bianco would have shared the actual ratings numbers.) Viewership of TAR in general has been declining, and we've already seen the all-star version of Survivor be less than successful. Still, I hope this isn't the end of the line for TAR. We'll also see if Romber's departure affects the ratings...

I dunno if I want to listen to this guy. He doesn't even know if Starbuck is really dead.  I am surprised that the ratings aren't that good. I was mostly looking forward to this season, though I would have preferred it to be all teams that placed either 1st or 2nd in their season. Sometimes our very own Webmaster posts ratings news on the front page here. I will watch for one.

Although there aren't any numbers, Broadcasting and Cable confirms that the Race isn't faring all that well. For Sunday, March 5:Amazing Race came in third at 8-9 p.m. behind ABC's Extreme Makeover and the Fox comedies. 
Tribe strikes again!

Yup. It'd do better some weeknight slots.
Rays of light by tribe.
I still remember the time when the thing to look forward to on a Sunday night was Walt Disney.

It hasn't quite dropped to Apprentice levels.CBS Has Sunday Win Down 'Cold' "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" moved ABC into the lead at 8 p.m. with a 7.9/13. CBS dropped to second with "The Amazing Race," 5.9/10. "The Simpsons," 5.3/9, and "The Winner," 4.1/6, finished third for FOX. NBC got a 4.1/7 from "Grease: You're the One That I Want," leaving The CW's "7th Heaven" rerun in fifth.
-----
At 10 p.m., CBS' "Without a Trace" dominated the hour with a 10.8/18. "The Apprentice" posted a 4.9/8 for NBC, and a "Brothers & Sisters" rerun on ABC earned a 4.0/7.

9. "Keeping hope alive..." |
This past week's episode did much better than usual, especially considering that Rob & Amber were booted already.At 8 p.m., CBS improved to 8.9/14 with "60 Minutes" and "The Amazing Race." A repeat of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," 6.2/10, held onto second for ABC. "Grease: You're The One That I Want" kept NBC in third, slightly ahead of FOX's "Simpsons" rerun, 4.4/7, and "The Winner," 3.6/6. The CW got a 1.3/2 from "7th Heaven." "The Amazing Race" and the start of "Cold Case" combined for an 8.0/12 on CBS at 9 p.m. NBC moved into second with "Deal or No Deal," 7.2/11. ABC's "Desperate Housewives" rerun, 4.9/8, came in third. FOX held steady with a "Family Guy" rerun, 4.6/7, and a second episode of "The Winner," 3.5/5. A "Top Model" rerun finished the night for The CW. TAR was also #17 overall this past week. Nice improvement.

LAST EDITED ON 04-04-07 AT 10:47 PM (EST)For 4/1: "Dateline," 6.0/10, gave NBC the lead in households at 8 p.m., although ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" repeat had more viewers. The first half of a two-hour "Amazing Race: All-Stars" posted a 5.1/8 for CBS. FOX stayed in fourth with "The Simpsons," 4.0/7, and "King of the Hill," 3.9/6. The CW got a 1.2/2 from "7th Heaven." ABC and NBC switched places at 9 p.m., with a "Desperate Housewives" clip show (6.6/10) leading in households and "Deal or No Deal" (6.5/10) drawing more viewers. The second hour of "The Amazing Race" improved to 5.5/8. A "Family Guy" rerun, 4.2/7, and "American Dad," 3.7/6, kept FOX in front of an "America's Next Top Model" rerun on The CW. "Cold Case", which followed TAR, was the top-rated show of the night. So TAR isn't beating either NBC or ABC, but apparently it's not too much of a drag for CBS either. But the numbers are well off from what Jims posted.
Tribe strikes again!

You can't convince me that the episode in which teams were few hours away from other group of teams was exciting.
Yo can't convince me that episode in which fist team stop to buy food and becouse of that Mirna became first ,holds viewers attention!
What lack of action and excitement.
