TV Ratings stuff for this week...

• World Series is, predictably, blowing chunks:

1. 10.81 million for Game 1 -- only last year's was worse.
2. 10.28 million for Game 2 -- only last year's was worse.

Nice job, Manfred...

• Very interested to see how a shit Week 6 drew in the NFL ratings-wise...  (Sports Media Watch)

1. CBS National:  Worst-watched National Week 7 window since 2001.  Bucs-Bears in 90%, 9.3 rating, 17.75M viewers.  Worst late window of ANY WEEK (which did not include double doubleheaders) since Week 4 2017 in ratings and Week 6 2018 in viewers.  -25% ratings, -22% viewers.
2. CBS Regional:  8.4 rating, 15.15M viewers, up about 3-4% in both metrics.  Chiefs-Titans in about 3/4 of the nation.
3. FOX Single:  8.2 rating, 15.74M viewers, down 6% ratings, 1% viewers.  Washington-Green Bay or Eagles-Raiders led that slate.
4. MNF:  12.87M, including the latest ManningCast.  1.6 million for that, down about 13% from Weeks 1 and 2.
5. SNF:  9.0 rating, 16.11M viewers -- lowest so far this year for NBC.  On the other hand, it was almost 15% up from last year in both metrics.
6. Thursday Night:  7.3 rating, almost 13M viewers, up about 25-30% over last year.
