Not according to some graph I found on the Internet, but I know that's a pretty terrible source. Is there a way to find out the numbers?

Last year I posted an inlined graph from a french site that charted the ratings for TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT up to (I think) the third season. Sadly that site's since gone dead, and I never personally saved that picture.Uraniun235 wrote:If I remember right, even the great and vaunted TNG's ratings started to slip and fall somewhere around the fifth season... which, coincidentally, is where it started to nosedive in terms of quality.
But yeah, TNG's ratings went up, then went way down, and the ratings for each following series continued progressively downward.

I saved it. You're wrong about TNG, although it did go down a little after the fifth season.Spanky The Dolphin wrote:Last year I posted an inlined graph from a french site that charted the ratings for TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT up to (I think) the third season.

EDIT: Since the new BSG beat ENT several times in the ratings, the fourth season would probably be somewhere around 2 million.

I know, it's only a recent trend. You've said it slightly more than once a day since July 1. Someone that frank shouldn't have to mention it anymore. I'm going to run away before the spam patrol comes.Spanky The Dolphin wrote:Hah, I checked and "frankly" only appears in less than a thousand of my posts, often not even by me!
