  • Please bear with me on this page. I'm still trying to get information about the ratings.

Table

  • I'm trying for a weekly ratings table for each season for the US. To nail down the actual format of the table, I'm beginning only with Season 4. Each rating must have a reference, and as I'm relatively unfamiliar with ratings sources, there is always some issue as to whether the rating in any particular source is overall, or the 18-49 demographic only. Also, daily rankings are dependent on the demographic. Digging through Nielsen's site is difficult, and Hollywood Reporter seems to have total demographic ratings, whereas other media articles frequently cite the 18-49 bracket only. Weekly rankings are also given. It's also interesting to see what beats Lost in the weekly battle-- is it another show like Idol, or a special event such as the Superbowl? ... and is it during Sweeps, when crazy gimmicks are produced by all networks? (The final table should note sweeps weeks). The final average ratings is also significant. Finally we also have viewers, ratings, and share. The bottom line is the process of deciding the final format of the table should take into account the existence of all of these items, whether or not they are all listed in the final format. Anyone familiar with these issues can help. ALSO, the DVR/Tivo issue should be noted (I believe Nielsen began recording those recently) and if possible incorporated into the table. -- C¯ _Santa_ ¯T 01:59, 4 March 2008 (PST)
  • All the information i'm finding is inconsistent. I just wanted to see which episode has the highest ratings share to date. I think it is Man of Science, Man of Faith with a +13 share. --MathewBrooks 08:26, 14 April 2008 (PDT)

Seasons 1-3

I filled in Santa's table for season 4 but now we really need to add in season 1-3. Most wiki sites have rating info for their shows so we really need this but i couldn't find one place for all the Lost ratings. Anyone have any ideas? --Anfield Fox 05:03, 4 June 2008 (PDT)
