aki dejo un plan de reparo de daños ke postearon en KateWalshaholics:
OK people here is the reality. I don't know how many of you follow ratings and stuff but the ratings for Private Practice last night were quite terrible (like if we keep this up we are sure to get cancelled by November Sweeps bad). We got beat by America's Got Talent that is how bad it was.....it's......well it's not looking that great.
This is how bad it is......
Quote:
Left out in the cold at 9 p.m., however, was the second-season premiere of ABC’s Private Practice at a third-place 8.05 million viewers and a 3.2/ 8 among adults 18-49. Although that built from the second-half of lead-in Pushing Daisies by double-digits, it was also down by 6.36 million viewers and 40 percent in the demo from its series-premiere on Wednesday, Sept. 26, 2007 (Viewers: 14.41 million; A18-49: 5.2/13 on Sept. 26, 2007). Absence, no doubt, has not made the ratings heart grow fonder!

We lost 6.36 million viewers? Ouch.

Anyways so Coord (
hangfire), Jamie (
Addisonlove), and I had a little chat and decided that it is time to do some damage control, so we came up with a list of stuff which we all can do in order to help create more buzz for the show and we really
NEED your help, like we are not asking if you can do this, we are saying that you
HAVE to do this, ya know if you would still like to see Kate on your TVs every week, and still get all the pics, interviews and Kate in mags and stuff that we currently get, I am sure none of you want to see all of that dry up right?
THE LIST
1. Participate on the ABC Private Practice Messageboard. It might be set up a little differently to in here but as it is the
ABC messageboard you only know that TPTB (like Shonda and stuff) are keeping tabs on everything which the fans are buzzing about in there, heck maybe even the cast has a look in it from time to time.

If you have a TWoP account then can you please go and leave a review in the episode discussion thread on there, and ramble on about how much you loved the episode, and Addison and all the others at OWG. Something which I sometimes is create one main review and then copy and paste it on other boards which I visit. Also, it is a known fact that Shonda's people keep tabs on in there at all times.

Gossip Girls, Popsugar etc. It might sound dumb but PR people for the networks also keep track of much buzz the actors for the shows are creating on the internet and elsewhere.
4. If you live in the USA get EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE you know watching PrP, even if they can't stand the show at least convince them to Tivo it or have it on mute while it is airing live. Basically, recruit as many people to watch as you can.
5. If you go to other Kate or PrP messageboards, or sites, then ask a mod/admin there if they can start a list similar to this so that we can recruit more and more people to help create the buzz.
Gosh I scared myself, but I am super worried right now.......and yes we may be prematurely freaking out, but there is no better time to fix a potentially big problem (like no more Kate on our TVs every week) than when it first arises, before it can get even worse than it is already.
We also would be truly grateful if you can please think of any of other good ideas which we can do to create buzz, anything else we may have not thought of. Please!
Thanks!
