That's gloomy. Might Nick get paranoid and start talking cancellation before seasons 3 and 4 make it to air if they dip below 1.5 million (which could be three weeks away at this rate?)

>>114322
But they all ready spent the money, they can't cancel the show now that they've paid for 4 seasons, can they?

>>114325
They will if Spongebob reruns they already paid for are making more money.

easy its the wrong time of year and the wrong time slot. Also the numbers are still misleading since you've got alternatives to actually watching on a TV such as itunes and their own website.

>>114325
They will if Spongebob reruns they already paid for are making more money.

These ratings are above-average Friday night ratings, better than almost all other Friday night cable draws. Blame Nick for moving it from its insanely lucrative Saturday morning slot.

>>114332
yea that is a key point that its doing better than most other Friday slot shows on top of already noted discrepancies.

Why are people acting like it's going to be cancelled? Those are still, you know, pretty good ratings for a cartoon on a Friday night that isn't Spongebob.

>>114334
we've seen some that have that raging hateboner that also take glee in seeing things cancelled some as a sick sign of accomplishment and are the ones massive shitposting at the moment both on tumbler and reg /co/ and stir others to fear its "low" ratings and discourage others to keep watching.

>>114336
But Nickelodeon already order 2 more seasons, didn't they?

>>114392

Book 3 is getting principle animation done as we speak and Book 4 is recording voice acting.

>Starting October 9th, the Legend of Korra will begin airing new episodes exclusively on Nick Toons, starting with episode six, "The Sting". Even more surprisingly, another new episode, "Beginnings Part 1," is scheduled to air the very next day. This might even be troubling news for the show, which as, we reported a week ago, is in a ratings slump. This sudden move might be a result of that, though there is no confirmation from Nickelodeon.

>We also don't know if Nick will continue airing new episodes past October 10th, or if they will continue to run episodes until the show goes on hiatus (as it has done in the past with it's predecessor, Avatar: The Last Airbender). We'll update you with any more information on this developing story.

>You may be seeing a post going around saying that “The Sting” and “Beginnings, Part 1” will be airing on Nicktoons at 8:30 on 10/9 and 10/10. This is what is listed on the Zap2It Tv Listings. Also on the Comcast listings, repeats of Book 2 Episodes 1-5 are listed airing on Nicktoons starting on Wednesday October 2nd.

>Going by this schedule here is the current Nicktoons Korra schedule:

>Wed Oct 2nd: Episode 1 repeat
>Thurs Oct 3rd: Episode 2 repeat
>Fri Oct 4th: Episode 3 repeat
>Mon Oct 7th: Episode 4 repeat
>Tues Oct 8th: Episode 5 repeat
>Wed Oct 9th: Episode 6 new airing
>Thurs Oct 10th: Episode 7 new airing

>Then we don’t have any info after October 10th. So I guess it’s possible Nick is just going to air new Korra episodes on Nicktoons daily now after repeating the already aired episodes, but this seems unlikely:

>I asked NickandMore, who knows a lot of about Nickelodeon’s scheduling this, and they said Nick hasn’t released their October premiere info yet and that “they’ll likely have to fix” the Nicktoons airings.

>Basically, this is probably a scheduling mistake and while it should be noted that this is what the listings currently say, in all likelihood it’ll be fixed soon.

In short nothing to see folks just go on your way. Just a small dedicated bunch of vileness trying to spread their vile nonsense around.

>>114519

>Basically, this is probably a scheduling mistake and while it should be noted that this is what the listings currently say, in all likelihood it’ll be fixed soon.

Fucking shocker.

>>114519

>Basically, this is probably a scheduling mistake and while it should be noted that this is what the listings currently say, in all likelihood it’ll be fixed soon.

That could be wishful thinking. the ratings speak for themselves.

>>114521

The second highest rated program on Friday nights behind Smackdown.

Scheduling changes aren't made 3 weeks into a season, on a weekend. Those people aren't at work until Monday.

This thread is shit under my shoe.

>>114523

They are losing money aring Korra when repeats of spongebob have just as high ratings. They would be fools to air anything else.

>>114521
The ratings are not that bad, holy shit. It's still doing very well for a cartoon on a dying network.

>>114525
>They are losing money aring Korra
Says the guy who just has to work for Nickelodeon because that's the only way he could know this.

https://twitter.com/NickelodeonTV/statuses/385166632903262208

Bryan pretty much killed all this talk of them cancelling LOK and has confirmed the show is doing just fine in terms of ratings.

>>114676
NYCC panel is tomorrow, hope someone gets some info from it.

>>114678

Wut. NYCC is next week Thursday. The Korra panel is on the 12th.

>>114702
ah I was reading the scheduling wrong thinking this weekend instead of next.

>>114827
should put turtles in there before it. I thought they had more on before Nick at Night, didn't know that crap started at 9:00

re/207195/

>Korra isn't even listed

>>114830

Why do you even post here?

>>114830
Probably update it with those numbers later when they come out. Nothing to be concerned about really. They'll have a big promotion this coming con maybe finally give it some merch.

>"Peacekeepers" Gets 1.103 Million Viewers

http://dongbufeng.tumblr.com/post/63427511298/peacekeepers-gets-1-103-million-viewers

>>114839
Ouch. Still not worried about a cancellation, but still that has to hurt.

>>114839
Jesus fucking shit.

>>114839
>>114840
And I'm not usually one to go all conspiracy theory on this, but seeing as Nick DID have hangups over this show I wonder if they're not trying to ambush it (even though they've already started on books 3 and 4). Either way, it should go back to the Saturday time slot.

>>114842
getting all twitchy about the female protag possibly. Yea put it back to Saturday or just leave it at 7:30. 8:30 Seems to be putting against too many other shows in that demo.

>>114839
regular 4chan and tumblr are having crazy joygasms at this news.

Pic related

stupid bastards they pull this same shit with every adventure that doesn't meet their approval and then piss bitch and moan when all that gets approved is slapstick. and thanks for the heads up before going over to talk about anything.

I'll be honest, the third and fourth episode left such a serious sour taste in my mouth that I only watched episode five out of inertia. I'm glad that I did, though because that was easily the best one so far.

That said 1.1 million is looking like a death sentence if the show doesn't bounce from it.

You know the IZ staff made episodes that never aired (had to wait for them DVDs) and recorded audio for even more and the show still got canned, right?

NickandMore goes more in depth about the latest ratings decline:

>Last Friday, Nickelodeon decided (about three days earlier) to move the series to 8:30pm on Friday. Now many fans instantly tried to tell me via Twitter that it was a good move as this was a “better timeslot” they said. Well, they obviously don’t pay attention to how things work. For the three weeks Korra aired at 7pm, it had a SpongeBob lead-in. That’s important, as SpongeBob (which is down somewhat itself) is still Nick’s top draw.

>Friday’s lead-in to Korra? Sanjay and Craig. Okay, initially you’d think that should be okay. It’s a Nicktoon? Yes. It’s a newer series? Yes, just premiered in May. However, it doesn’t have a good repeat track record. Ratings are nowhere near SpongeBob-repeat level. In fact, the whole new Friday line-up from 7-9pm was weird to look at. At 7:00 replacing Korra was Sam & Cat. That’s understandable, I guess. It’s a new show with a decent viewing for both new and repeat views (though, still not SpongeBob-level). Okay. Here’s where it gets weird. 7:30pm was… Drake & Josh. Not knocking the show at all, but that series ended over six years ago. So, then you had the aforementioned Sanjay and then was Korra. So, between the 6:30 SpongeBob episode (which by the way scored 2.3 million viewers on Friday – again, not great for that series’ normal repeat levels, but decent) you had three different series that are nowhere near Korra-compatible.

http://www.nickandmore.com/2013/10/08/legend-of-korra-drops-to-1-1-million-viewers-whats-going-on-nickelodeon/

>>114852
Nick can also banish Korra to Nicktoons, like they've done with so many series like The Mighty B!, Planet Sheen, and recently, T.U.F.F. Puppy.

>>114856
You guys are still freaking out over nothing.

>>114852
I'll be fine if the rest of the show makes a DVD release, at least.

>>114857
Well its not like we've not seen networks intentionally kill a show before but yea its likely just a freakout and doesn't help if anyone is actually going over to reg /co/ and seeing those idiots cheering hoping for its demise. They need to put it with a solid block not just wandering the wilderness. I mean its not like they don't have action shows and enough of them to assemble a solid block that could very well boost off each other. But looking at the schedule Nick can't schedule for shit.

>>114863

>>114884
Well Disney just gave up and just ran out the clock with midnight shows.

>>114884
What a nearly perfect show...
Makes sense that nobody watched it and the network actually tried to kill it.

It was actually too good for us.

Seriously LoK getting shafted is basically just an echo of this.
Too bad nobody jumped the gun and gave Charlie Bean a 4 season package to produce...

>>114886
It pulls good numbers if they would just let it be. Someone knows they need something because in the end if all they have is SpongeBob its going to mean their death. Hell the sponge already makes up about HALF their daily programming and buffers both ends of Nick Jr.

>>114889
Lets not kid ourselves.
Something at Nick changed between Season 1 & 2. And the current agenda isn't to make LoK a hit, that's for sure.

But hell, even if it were, Nick is a sinking ship.
Once somebody cuts the Spongebob life support, that channel is dead.
Hell, it's a wonder Viacom isn't shutting them down already.

>>114907
because they intend to also churn out at least one youth group live action crap sensation.

Nick is putting SpongeBob back as a lead-in for Korra, so that's something.

http://korraspirit.tumblr.com/post/63781961138/next-weeks-korra-episode-starts-on-a-new-timeslot

Is this for real?

>>115103

It's an hour long special, of course it's gonna start earlier

>>115104
Oh. Duh. My bad.

http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2013/10/14/friday-cable-ratings-baseball-playoffs-win-night-wwe-smackdown-legend-of-korra-haven-jessie-more/208815/

ratings up by 800,000 from last week

>>115300

Good news... except it comes right ahead of yet another time change, and then a hiatus.

>>115308
thought that was just an hour long special

>>115308
>>115309

Beginnings is meant to be an hour long special, so Korra starts at 8 this week and run until 9, but that's just for Beginnings.

so...how were they this week?

>>115537
Ratings for last Friday? Shit.

show really should be airing earlier it seems.

>>115541
Well I think this all but confirms book 3 will be moving back to Saturdays (no, the ratings are still not bad enough for the show to be cancelled and the itunes/amazon sales CAN make up lost numbers).

>>115543
course not. Look at Breaking Bad for most of its run up until the last season where it dominated It still pulls better than most hour long stuff on other networks. Itunes sales are possibly high since its a viable alternative now even more than when Book one was airing with the tablet gaining over the PC in the last year as the user platform of choice and the steady decline of Cable.

>>115544
I think Nickelodeon should work out something for individual shows and Netflx since its removal has hurt a lot other than my aggravation at not being abole to watch Classic Nicktoons anymore.

>Book 2 is on the rise! The Guide drew 2.473 million viewers!

>This is exciting news as this is higher than any other episode this season except for the premiere, and is likely thanks to the Spongebob lead-in being brought back.

>>115789
On Hallowe'en night? That's actually pretty damn respectable.

>>115794

Halloween was the day before. People still have Halloween parties though depending on the weekend.

Surprised that last week's episode did better than the much hyped one-hour special.

>>115796
decent lead in helps. The Sponge for all that people think of how its changed is still a decent background noise that people can wait through to see what they want.

And we're back down again.

>>116171
seems to be the habit of the hour longs.

>The on-air premiere of the #Korra book 2 finale scored 2.094 million total viewers Friday on Nick.

https://twitter.com/nickandmore/status/405127227890597888

>>116309
thought that would be lower given the early release, happy to see that not being the case.

>>116310

Aside from the Peacekeepers dip, Book 2 consistently hung with Smackdown, aka the "king" of Friday nights on cable TV, which isn't really saying much for Friday night TV in general. Friday night is an awful night for TV and I hope Korra gets its old Saturday morning slot back going forward.

>>116311
They've been hurting since everyone has been going digital for a while now and is started effecting that older age bracket who while watching it wish to do so on their own schedule. Hence why Nick did the early release online so they could watch those numbers. But things like the Viacom Dispute a while back that got Nick kicked off Time Warner for a while really hurt their viewership numbers specially among the older ages since during that dead period they moved on and picked up other habits. But it does sound with the articles coming out that maybe Nick might appeal to the older audience with this next season coming up in a few months.

http://www.nickandmore.com/2013/12/29/top-50-most-watched-nickelodeon-programs-of-2013/

Lots of SpongeBob; no Korra.

>>116563
more to the point that Yellow menace is looking more and more like a death knell for them if they don't fix that. Regardless of how popular it is if they don't switch things up they are setting up for a blowout at some point.

NickAndMore posted that 448 of the top 500 ratings for 2013 were Spongebob, so unless LoK made 51 or 52 on the top not Spongebob, not a single episode of LoK cracked Nick's top 500 slots of 2013.

>>116569
The highest Korra ep. was the premier, with a 2.60. So I doubt it.

The fucking movie was more watched than Korra.

>>116570
>people watch the Shyllama movie to see info on LoK
>these people don't tune into the actual show

Or maybe it was like, "Hey everyone, that really bad movie is on!"
"<insert name of movie here?>"
"No, Last Airbender"
"Oh we GOT to watch this!"
