Ratings Collapse for Sarah Palin’s Alaska

» 135 comments

So, apparently one visit to Sarah Palin’s Alaska was enough.

After setting a ratings record for its debut episode a week ago, the second airing of TLC’s reality show starring former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin plunged 40%–shedding about two million viewers.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the viewers who did stick with SPA weren’t really the ones advertisers get excited about:

Only 885,000 viewers were ages 18-49, dropping 44% from last week.

In fact, the median age of the show is 57 — that’s 15 years older than TLC’s average.

TLC expected a ratings drop coming off the high-flying premiere; executives realized some of their numbers were driven by sheer curiosity rather than eagerness to see an Alaska-based travelogue reality show. Competition from Sunday Night Football and the American Music Awards may have impacted the numbers as well.

“We are very happy with the ongoing strength of Sarah Palin’s Alaska, and it continues to drive big ratings gains for TLC,” said a network spokesperson, who noted Conan had a similar drop.

If you haven’t checked out the show, you’ve got six more weeks to tag along with the Palins as they tour Wasilla, Kodiak and Nome, fishing, climbing and exploring the “final frontier” where you can just “be out here being free” Sundays on TLC.

    The first week was all about curiosity, people wanted to see what was what. The came, they saw, they left, no conspiracy, just plain old curiosity.

  • sarainitaly

    Did Mediaite do a happy dance?

    “Competition from Sunday Night Football and the American Music Awards may have impacted the numbers as well.” – Most likely, as well as the fact that it is Thanksgiving week.

    “According to The Hollywood Reporter, the viewers who did stick with SPA weren’t really the ones advertisers get excited about:” – no, but they vote.

    No Thank you!

  • RTB

    Ratings are still decent for TLC. ..
    a reality show with no drama, scandals, vulgarity and negativity is refreshing. ..FRom a left or right perspective. ..The show will be on a couple seasons and do decent ratings wise. ..

    I DVR’d it and will watch SPA tonight.

  • greg454

    Although I’m a fan of Sara Palin, I didn’t watch it. I don’t like family-friendly programming, boooooring.

    It looks like they moved over to the new ZOGBY POLL.

    NEWS ALERT………NEWS ALERT …. PALIN TIED WITH OBAMA………NEW NUMBERS MORE IMPORTANT THAN RATINGS ON TV SHOW….

    Turns out voters were not simply satisfied to spank the Democrat and his party in the Nov. 2 midterm elections with historic losses in the House of Representatives.

    Obama’s job approval rating as calculated by the Zogby Poll has now sunk to 39%, a new low for his 22-month presidency that began with so much hope and excitement and poll numbers up around 70. As recently as Sept. 20, his job approval was 49%.

    A whopping 60% now disapprove of his job, up from 51% disapproval Sept. 20.

    Obama now trails in hypothetical 2012 matchups against Republicans Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and the next Bush, Jeb.

    And, oh, my! Lookee here! Obama has even fallen into a statistical tie with none other than Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor. How embarrassing that is because other polls have shown a majority of Americans believe she is unqualified for the presidency. So it appears many have now decided, on second thought, Obama looks that way too

    Yea yea keep comforting yourself, it’s finally coming to light that nobody can stand this cretin and nobody wants to watch her or her inbred family… the only reason she gets coverage is the same reason people slow down to check out car wrecks.

    Let’s see how they’d spin this. Now she’d have to run for the office, or stick to her Fox job.

  • lane

    So, approx. 3 M watched the 2nd episode, TLC must be thrilled. For TLC that’s huge numbers, to say they collapsed is silly. TLC is made for marathons and repeated showings. Sunday nights are a touch night with regular shows AND sunday night football, 3M is huge numbers. Good for the Palins and TLC. I forgot it was even on.

    Good weekly tourism video for Alaska!

  • More Liberty

    Here we go again. Mediaite, AKA Paliniaite, isn’t this like the 6th article with Palin you’ve done today? What is up with this obsession?

  • paulmdoro

    3M is good numbers for a network like TLC. Context is also important. Most shows lose viewers following the premiere, especially if said premiere has been hyped up and received lots of media attention. For example, HBO’s Boardwalk Empire lost 31% of its viewers from the first episode to the second. The show is still a great success though.

    There are a number of Palin-based hate sites out there you can go to to e-gasm on without worrying about influencing neutral readers to be more sympathetic to the woman’s cause. Remember, people love underdogs and hate bullies.

    Isn’t irrational Obama hatred at least as common here as irrational Palin hatred?

  • Seeing 2012 From My Window

    Paul, if you are implying I have an irrational hatred of Obama, you’re wrong. I don’t hate him, I just don’t like his policies. You won’t ever hear me tear down his parenting skils or criticize him for mistakes his daughters might make in the future.

    I was not implying that Michelle, nor did I say that. I am not singling anyone out. But from what I have read during my time here, there is just as much irrational Obama hatred here, if not more.

    No, and that’s clearly not rational thought for selecting the most powerful person in the world. Neither is the new “conspiracy” that some leftest groups want her to be the GOP candidate because “they” think she will surely loose. Going by “their” mindset, that’s a pretty big risk to take. Look how much the electoral map changed after only two years on November 2. What will “we all” do if this “conspiracy” backfires on “them.”

    If Palin runs and makes it to the general election, I’ll judge her by her campaign platform, her public service record and not anything else. I probably won’t vote for her against Obama, but a lot of the “liberal thought” I get exposed to here and at other more prominent media outlets certainly doesn’t encourage me to vote Democratic. For every one Blower here, there are about ten LeviCoults. Since the beginning of 2008, I see liberals in a much more negative light than I used to and its not from “propaganda” coming from Fox News, its coming from the “mouths” of the liberals themselves.

    Interesting how you write that with Obama it’s only about policies but with Palin it’s obsessive hatred. That just is not the case. That may be true for you, but it most definitely is not true for many other posters here, who never offer any substantive criticism of the president’s policies. Instead, they rant and rave about Communism and Fascism and Marxism. Both sides are guilty of irrational hatred. Asserting otherwise ignores reality.

    3M is good numbers for a network like TLC. Context is also important. Most shows lose viewers following the premiere, especially if said premiere has been hyped up and received lots of media attention. For example, HBO’s Boardwalk Empire lost 31% of its viewers from the first episode to the second. The show is still a great success though.

    I can watch Boardwalk Empire several nights during the week or I can watch by using Comcast On Demand. I watch on Comcast. I also can watch Palin On Demand, do that too.

    It looks like they moved over to the new ZOGBY POLL. NEWS ALERT………NEWS ALERT …. PALIN TIED WITH OBAMA………NEW NUMBERS MORE IMPORTANT THAN RATINGS ON TV SHOW…. Turns out voters were not simply satisfied to spank the Democrat and his party in the Nov. 2 midterm elections with historic losses in the House of Representatives. Obama’s job approval rating as calculated by the Zogby Poll has now sunk to 39%, a new low for his 22-month presidency that began with so much hope and excitement and poll numbers up around 70. As recently as Sept. 20, his job approval was 49%. A whopping 60% now disapprove of his job, up from 51% disapproval Sept. 20. Obama now trails in hypothetical 2012 matchups against Republicans Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and the next Bush, Jeb. And, oh, my! Lookee here! Obama has even fallen into a statistical tie with none other than Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor. How embarrassing that is because other polls have shown a majority of Americans believe she is unqualified for the presidency. So it appears many have now decided, on second thought, Obama looks that way too

    Someone quickly call President Giuliani who beat the Democratic nominee, Hilary Clinton, to win the Presidency in 2010 (at least based on the polls two years before the election). I am sure he’ll have an opinion on this.

    I’m not sure how to tackle this one… there’s like zero substance in your insults, at least when I talk smack it’s connected to reality.

    I suspect you’re having trouble grasping this then. I’ll explain in a way you may understand. Wishing something to be true, as in your statement that we all now know what a cretin Palin is, is something that people do when they’re psychologically challenged, it’s called self fulfilling projection. You wish something were true, then you say it’s true over and over, and then in your underdeveloped mind, it becomes reality.

    You know, I thought you libs and progs were supposed to be smart, but you’re really a dumb ass. You gauge your worth here by how you come off as you “talk smack”?

    So far, every time you say that I’m embarrassing myself you have yet to come up with a valid answer to when I’ve challenged your moronic statements…. Like the polling story on the other post today (look back at it again). You keep on throwing pitches, I keep hitting them out of the park, and you continue to chase the ball over the wall like you can still get the ball and throw me out.
