Payout Perspective:
We are starting to see college basketball running over into TUF’s time slot. This time the Big East game ran over into the TUF time slot. It’s unlikely to matter with the overall rating but might confuse those trying to DVR the show. For a show running on a night when many were traveling, the ratings were up from Episode 9.
Tv live ratings are irrevelant for the ufc…il wait for.the dvr numbers hahahahahahaha
dvr numbers are nothing to paying avertisers
