GSN number-palooza once more

Douglas took a little vacation from GSN numbers. After all the data he's supplied, he deserves a few weeks off. But now he's back with October 24-30, and it wasn't a great week for the network. There might have been a reason for the massive schedule shakeup. The daily prime time/total day averages (in thousands of viewers)...

Mon 222/207
Tue 364/240
Wed 354/240
Thu 296/234
Fri 231/203
Sat 325/219
Sun 220/193

Maybe the World Series didn't help on Thursday and Friday, though sports are generally not much of a threat to GSN's audience. But there were a lot of forgettable numbers. We'll see if the new schedule does any better.

The top 20 had a certain monotonous look to it...
