New Blog Alert

Special announcement:

We are Margie and Edna. We have lived in Jericho, Kansas all our lives but we've decided it's time for us to branch out beyond our beloved town.

We'll still keep you informed of all the gossip-I mean the goings on here in town-but we're also going to talk about anything and everything else.

Please visit us at our new blog: Margie and Edna's Basement.

We do love having company.

CBS: Know Your Audience

"There was even “Saturday Jericho Game Night,” as well as a “Two Old Ladies of Jericho” chat. Back in August, Remote Access asked two Jericho fans to guest-blog on their website; they accepted but approached the task from the fictitious eyes of “Edna and Margie,” portrayed as two of Jericho’s oldest residents. The humorous, gossip-filled blog became both a must-read for Jericho fans and made “Edna and Margie” instant Jericho celebrities."

CBS is the real story for many of us. It was shown by Katie Couric's ratings that CBS does have an older audience but they keep trying to grab the 18-49 group.

Once again we see that CBS does not know their audience and they won't until they stop relying on Nielsen. Maybe not even then. Also, I've been told that many CBS affiliates did not air Jericho on Sat. night


"The real story here for me is CBS. And I’m sure I’ll take some hate mail for it, but the problem this network faces is in attracting 18-49 viewers. Indeed, CBS came in last or next to last (beating only the CW) in the 18-49 demo every single half hour of Sunday night. The problem is that on this Sunday, at least two of the four shows it aired, Big Brother and Dexter are aimed at younger people. How bad is the problem? It’s really bad. In the 7:30p half hour, 60 Minutes had 13.12 million people tuned in and American Gladiators had only 6.94 million and still beat CBS handily in the 18-49 demo.

What happened to Big Brother? It finished next to last, in both viewers AND the 18-49 demo, beating only the CW. What happened to Dexter? It finished last (by 10pm, FOX and CW were off the primetime grid or it would have at least thrashed the CW) in viewers and the 18-49 demo.

Dexter did a bit better than Jericho and it also did better than Big Brother, but all three of these shows have the same problem, they seem to be targeted at an audience who don’t actually watch CBS much. "

Blackjack Fairgrounds: Blog Carnival

"Despite the fact that Edna & Margie were nowhere to be seen in Tuesday’s season premiere, “Reconstruction,” Remote Access has stumbled upon a transcript of a conversation between the two ladies right about at that time…"

TiVo's attempt to transform itself into a media services company took another small step forward Thursday. CBS signed on as a client of TiVo's Stop Watch service, which provides second-by-second viewing data from a panel of 20,000 TiVo users.

Editor: The TiVo sampling is anonymous, so any TiVo customer might be included in the sampling."



"The last pre-strike episode of Supernatural will be airing next week, and they'll be back with four more season 3 installments beginning on Thursday, April 24. This means that fans will be waiting about two months in between new episodes, and while that is a pretty long time, it could certainly be worse."

Jericho: Margie and Edna

"Margie & Edna have a message for CBS"

"Anyhow, since Jericho’s been jerked around all over the place since being brought back for a second season, Margie and Edna are back to talk about loyalty and neighborliness."
