For Monday, April 25, 2016 (Posted on April 26, 2016)
ABC #1 Monday as ‘Dancing With The Stars’ top program
ABC
The Alphabet Network broke Black Rock’s six day winning streak by dancing the light fantastic and finishing with Rick & Kate. But, Walt’s World finished down -13.9% vs SD 2015.
8P ‘Dancing With The Stars‘ finished #1 overall with an average 11.661 million viewers and a 8.3/13.
10P ‘Castle‘ finished with an average 6.354 million viewers and a 4.3/7. The writers decided to come back to earlier days which resulted in a fun hour which resulted in a Must See TV ON DEMAND and/or LIVE streaming episode.
NBC
The Peacock Network had singing, but no dancing. It did have tattoos but Sarnoff Sity still finished down 06.8% vs SD 2015.
8P ‘The Voice‘ finished with an average 9.561 million viewers and a 6.3/10.
10P ‘Blindspot‘ finished with an average 5.740 million viewers and a 3.8/7. This exaggerated tale of Penn State football pointed out the blindspot in this show as without romance between the two leads, it is just another program. Fans like that chemistry.
CBS
The Tiffany Network without Supergirl still finished third on Monday as the boys and girls from LA won Monday’s ‘Battle @ 10P’. And Les’ Legion finished UP 9% vs SD 2015. Welcome back, the best bullpen program in the history of television.
8P ‘Mike & Molly‘ returned for its final season finished with an average 6.944 million viewers and a 4.5/7.
830P ‘The Big Bang Theory’ rerun finished with an average 6.192 million viewers and a 3.9/6.
9P ‘Scorpion‘ season finale finished with an average 8.797 million viewers and a 5.8/9.
10P ‘NCIS:Los Angeles‘ finished #1 in the time slot with an average 7.776 million viewers and a 5.0/8. This was a Must See TV ON DEMAND and/or LIVE streaming episode.
FOX
The Animal Network of Broadcast had a rerun and the Devil. Murdoch’s Minions finished down 28.9% vs SD 2015. The Devil beat last year’s program but why would you rerun Gotham, which lost all of the viewers vs SD 2015?
8P ‘Gotham‘ rerun finished with an average 2.008 million viewers and a 1.3/2.
9P ‘Lucifer‘ season finale finished with an average 3.862 million viewers and a 2.6/4. One of the best news series of the year, the season was too short for a fun and sometime thought provoking series.
The CW
The Little Network That Couldn’t, simply didn’t. Singing with a virgin…critics love it. Viewers are a bit worn out. How many times can you listen to another musical week after week after week about this girl who chases a dude who doesn’t like her? Even in West Covina! The WarnerLes network was down 18.2% vs SD 2015.
8P ‘Crazy Ex-Girlfriend‘ finished with an average 955,000 viewers and a 0.7/1.
9P ‘Jane The Virgin‘ finished with an average 827,000 viewers and a 0.6/1.

Today In Communication History
On this date in 1980, The Carpenters’ ‘Music Music Music’ TV special aired on ABC-TV.
NOTE: We have entered a new era in screen ratings. Nielsen is expanding its sample of TV viewers to include new
homes with meters that record the channel being watched—but not the demographics of the people watching. That will be estimated using data modeling and an algorithm Nielsen has developed, and added to the current sample that does include people meters that measure demos. The Panel Expansion (NPX), in which 12,900 households have been added to the national sample, is at the center of this change. The household ratings in these homes are measured by meters on each television in the home, while the demographic ratings in these homes will be assigned by Nielsen using a statistical algorithm. This is the first time since 1987 that homes in the national sample are not equipped with PeopleMeters, which measure both the program viewed and the people watching it.

Mobile Research
Smartphone Owners Want In-Store Messaging When In Stores
Some 74% of adult mobile device owners claim to want to receive messages from a store or business during a visit, per a survey of 2,115 US adults (18+) from Euclid Analytics. However, giving consent and choosing when messages are received are important to a sizable share of respondents, although the medium (how they receive the messages) appears to be the most important factor.
Previous research on this topic has yielded conflicting results: that in-store alerts are both welcomed and annoying.
The following data points sourced from recent research.
While smartphone owners continue to have a strong appetite for content on their devices, such as watching video (81% doing so) and playing online games (69%), they are also facing some frustrating challenges, per a report from Accenture. For example, more than 8 in 10 are unhappy with mobile advertising interfering with their experience, more than 6 in 10 are concerned about the security of financial transactions conducted over their devices, and 60% are dissatisfied with their connectivity and experience and would switch providers. The results are based off a survey of 28,000 consumers in 28 global markets.
They may be unhappy with their experiences, but smartphone owners, as noted above in the Accenture survey, are pressing forward with their use of their devices for digital content. In fact, according to a survey from Limelight Networks, the mobile phone has now narrowly displaced the personal computer as the device to which American adults most often download content. As relates to the content downloaded, the results indicate that movies and TV shows, new apps/updates to apps and music are the most frequently downloaded content types. The most frustrating thing about downloading content, per the survey, is the length of time it takes to complete, though interruptions are also frustrating to many.
Television Research
Netflix Tops HBO
Netflix has overtaken HBO for the first time as the premium TV or subscription video-on-demand service that Americans perceive to have the “best” original content, per a Morgan Stanley survey reported here by Variety. Separate results from the survey show that original content is a major factor in continued membership for 45% of Netflix subscribers, up from 34% last year. Interestingly, Netflix subscribers are heavy media consumers, being more likely to subscribe to HBO, Showtime and Starz than non-Netflix subscribers.
Digital Research
Business Want ROI On Content Delivery
Marketers’ biggest concerns when investing in content are gaining deeper insights beyond clicks and views (59%) and being able to accurately measure ROI (58%), with fewer concerned with measuring content-driven conversion behavior or deeper content engagement. That’s according to a survey of 500 marketers from Rapt Media, which also found that 60% of business marketers are unable to measure ROI on the content they produce. That brings to mind recent research from Rundown, in which only 18% of content marketers reported a clear understanding of the ROI their content delivers.
Marketing Research
Retailers Failing To Meet Customers’ Expectations
Retailers are failing to meet customers’ expectations, averaging an overall performance score of 40% on four core competencies: consistency; content; convenience; and context. That’s according to an IBM evaluation of 550 brick-and-mortar and pure play retailers across 8 different segments and 23 countries. Retailers fared worst in the contextual criteria, as fewer than 1 in 5 analyzed provide personalized name, product content and marketing messages in at least one digital touchpoint.
