[QUOTE=V1man;368050]Susanne is a highly experienced professional who knows exactly how present ratings become a factor in the equation creating future advertising rates. From that perspective you are correct with regard to other current MTV programs, however, what Wall Street looks at in its evaluation of VIACOM stock are what past ad rates/program ratings meant for past stock price history. NBC's branded cable channels are currently kicking MTV Network's butt. Daniels was brought in to elevate the position of the network and achieve a greater return on investment for the stockholders. So far, the jury is out on any improvement. T[B]he "professional" majority cast of the next challenge may, in fact, represent her influence, since it's the kind of casting BMP has never done before.[/B][/QUOTE]
You should know by now how much I like your inside scoops, but could you please explain what "professional" mean in this sentence. People, who deliver drama, people who know how to act in front of a camera, people who have fans or a Fresh Meat 3 where the fresh meat are actors?
I would be very thankful.

If I answered you completely, it would be a spoiler for the San Fran RW season. In short, this is mostly a cast that comes out of professional casting circles and not from individuals who have long had a passion for RW. Survivor has been doing this for the past several seasons. Even people on the streets of San Fran have figured this out with several smart people noting on line that the cast was being given direction from production just like so many scripted shows shot in the city.
You're all forgetting that The Challenge requires incredible set ups and probably a large budget to accommodate that and prize money. Ridiculousness costs nothing to make outside of Rob Dyrdek's contract

Thirty seconds of homework in the official ratings thread would have told you that you were wrong.

Total viewers is the number of people who watch for at least 7 minutes or something like that. The 1.6 million viewers is the average of the people watching over the full hour.
[QUOTE=V1man;369582]Thirty seconds of homework in the official ratings thread would have told you that you were wrong.[/QUOTE] Why do they need to do homework to be told they're wrong when you and so many others will take such glee in telling them they're wrong? Wouldn't want to take away your fun! :)
[QUOTE=theman23;370524]Just bet one of my friends that the next challenge will be Duel 3[/QUOTE]
I hope for your sake that there was no money involved... :encouragement:
