According to a report from AdAge, every single network drama that aired on Tuesday night experienced a double-digit decline in ratings. And aside from a decent showing from The Muppets, the report relays that there have been few bright spots to the start of this year's fall TV lineup.
[...] All told, cumulative viewership during "Premiere Week", as it's called, is down 8% compared to the same period a year-ago. More worrisome for TV networks is that viewership from the highly sought-after 18-24 demographic is down 20% year over year, with male viewership within that demographic falling by 24%.
Males in the 18-24 demographic are the most coveted in advertising because that's when studies show brand preferences are formed. 24% is a catastrophic decline for TV.

Archie was no hero. What he was is a product of his time being forced to slowly evolve and loath to admit it. Likewise, he was no villain.

Not a villian - just an obnoxious old asshole. I saw a lot of Archie in my own father, and many of the people around me as I was growing up. They weren't villians, but many of them were most definitely assholes.

Dude, you are an Archie Bunker for the modern day.
Just like all those assholes couldn't recognize their own asshole nature that Archie illustrated back then, neither can you now.

It's just so thrilling to see my devoted fan club hanging on my every word.
