The Question, Thursday 4/11/13: Will Hannibal Eat Up the Repeat Competition?


We're not yet at a point where a 1.6 demo premiere is worthy of genuine praise on a broadcast network, but on NBC we're at a point where a 1.6 demo premiere (especially with a 1.1 lead-in) at least makes week two interesting. And tonight's week two of Hannibal has the added benefit of generally positive reception and competing Scandal and Elementary going into repeats. It will probably drop a bit, just because almost everything does, but I don't see any reason why it should be a large drop tonight.

Hannibal Over/Under: 1.45.

I can't imagine there being much overlap with either of its competitors, but the repeat did okay, so I'll go with 1.5 and over.

Under. 1.4

I feel The Following vibes from this one and although I don't see it having an up-tick, I do think it could catch some Elementary viewers. Over.

Under at 1.4.

Over at 1.5

under.

With all the other networks in repeat mode (besides FOX), NBC has to be able to take advantage of it, right? If The Office is able to gain a few tenths this week (with guest star Roseanne), it should help Go On and in return help Hannibal. I'm going to go positive on this one and say a 1.6. OVER.

...Over, at 1.8.

Under, 1.4. Just because all the series in other death slots (so-called or real) tumbled in week two: Red Widow, 666 Park Avenue, Missing, Charlie's Angels, Awake. Hannibal should drop a little less, but more than a tenth.

Spot said...

The fact that Hannibal was able to grow from its Go On lead-in means there was an engaged (or at least well-informed) audience and bodes well for the show as it gets an easier go of it tonight against reruns.

Over.

Spot said...

Close, but UNDER at a 1.4

Spot said...

Over.
