WHAT MATTERS:
- Numbers posted. NBC's season premiere of America's Got Talent led into new reality competition Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge.
I'm very happy to announce that the so-called "A18-49+ Era" (the period across which we have sufficient data to calculate a "league average" and thus translate all raw ratings into historical-adjusted A18-49+ ratings) will be expanding on the back side one more (final?) time, with the addition of the 1999-2000 and 2000-01 seasons being added in the Schedules Plus updates this summer. Coupled with the newly added 2022-23 season, this means we will have a whooping 24 seasons covered by this metric! That's basically a full generation in the traditional sense of the word, and in terms of how much the TV industry has changed over this time, it may as well be a millennium.
