Happy New Year All...
Well Looks Like Oprah has done her thing so far with her new OWN Chanel (Oprah Winfrey Network)
I missed the actual Premire however it replayed all weekend I instantly fell in love with "Master class" It showcases walks of many lives Artist,News Anchors,music Icons, legends, Kind of like an intimate account of their lives up into the point where we know them as house hold names. Diane Sawyer was at most inspiring and a personal favorite of mine. I find it very refreshing to have such a network as an option to live the Best life ever. I will Miss Oprah on the air however this seems to very well fitting for her and as a fan I support this Network. OWN premired on Saturday January 1, 2011 to 1.16 million viewers alone.
The fact that the ratings below are “coverage” ratings bears explaining.
Most of the ratings on our site are “national” ratings, where a ratings point equals 1% of all US TV viewers in that particular group. “Coverage” ratings, which are not infrequently used in cable network PR measure the % of that cable networks reachable subscribers, so a single coverage ratings point equals 1% of the TV viewers who receive that particular cable network.
Also, to put the 1.16 million in primetime average somewhat into perspective, during Christmas week, 17 cable networks averaged more than that for the entire week.
