Top 25 Watched Channels.

I am trying to find this on google or anywhere else TV guide, ect… but cant seem to find it.
I want to find the top watched channels on TV. Not the top watched shows. Most of the top 100 shows are all on the same 5 or so channels. I want to find the top 25 channels as far as most watched/ highest rated. Anyone think the can help?

start with the big 4, you know they’re on there

Looking for a list.
Like…
1.) CBS
2.) NBC
3.) Fox
4.) ABC
etc…

It looks like tvbythenumbers.com has what you need but for wahtever reason i can’t get to the site from work to confirm…check it out

Will not work from my home computer either.

I get a page with MySQL errors everywhere

looks like their database is dead

I am pretty sure the numbers change depending on what season you are in for certain shows.

Looking for a general list. I might just start a new thread for it and get everyone’s opinions. I am doing an install on a hotel next week and the owner want a suggestion on what channels to add to his line-up. I don’t watch a lot of TV so I am not the best to suggest them.

I dont watch tv either, but when I do I typically surf over to spike, speed, DIY, discovery, hgtv, vh1, comedy central

If I had to pick 25 to represent the biggest cross-section I’d probably go
NBC
CBS
ABC
FOX
ESPN
ESPN2
MSG
CNN
FOX NEWS (UGH)
MSNBC
Comedy Central
Cartoon Network
Nickelodeon
Discovery
Weather Channel
TBS
TNT
USA
Spike
Lifetime (UGH)
MTV (UGH)
VH1
HBO
Showtime
PPV

Lots of sports but all it takes is for a game to be on and not get it and you’ll have a lot of pissed off guests.

NYSpeed is not going to be a proper test group for a survey

LOL I think you can tell them it’s for me. Keep in mind the it’s being run 1/2 as a motel and 1/2 as apt building. No I’m not putting porn on there either. Heck some of the people don’t even turn on the TV :angryhump:.
Thanks

Joe, that looks like a pretty decent list.

Oh throw in Disney too…gotta minimize the probably of bratty kids flipping out

I think this will be best for the 24ch Hotel Line-Up…

01.) NBC
02.) CBS
03.) ABC
04.) FOX
05.) CW23
06.) ESPN
07.) ESPN2
08.) CNN
09.) FOX NEWS
10.) MSNBC
11.) Weather Channel
12.) Disney
13.) Cartoon Network
14.) Nickelodeon
15.) Discovery
16.) Comedy Central
17.) TBS
18.) TNT
19.) USA
20.) Spike
21.) Lifetime
22.) MTV
23.) VH1
24.) HBO

I could see no sabres games pissing people off a lot. Some people are freaks about missing them. Maybe less at a hotel since a lot would be from out of town.

MSG does not play the sabres games on satellite anyway. We would have to dedicate a alternate sports station to it. It would not work out well for all the time there are not games on (it would be a blank station when no game is on)

Hmm yeah…could you bump one of the other channels during Sabres games or is it a fixed tune thing? I always wondered how the hotel systems worked, whether they had to have 20 different receivers all outputting on different channels or whatever

No History, no care.

We just upped his package to 30-36 channels and I’m pretty sure he added that and a few others that were clinchers.
