Imma tell my grandkids one day that the big finale to the iconic Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul universe got beat in the ratings by Dolph Ziggler.

All three hours beat the Saul finale. That’s nuts.
I think it speaks to how Better Call Saul never really captured the zeitgeist like Breaking Bad did.

The biggest thing I’ve been seeing is the retention. They aren’t bleeding viewers in the third hour

Right now it's not a whole lot different from what Raw has been under Vince, it's just booked a hell of a lot better. So I don't know why anyone would all of a sudden just stop watching.

I just figured it may drop with that being the main more so than anything...Still pretty interesting placement with it over AJ/Lashley and the hyped Lumis stuff

Probably my only real complaint about the show.

They're 18-49 numbers have still remained above SmackDown the past few weeks which really shouldn't happen given they're on FOX. Even if you bump SmackDown's numbers by 10% to account for preemptions last week, it still doesn't beat RAW. My current theory is the Triple H switch has brought back some lapsed fans weekly so far to RAW but they haven't made a full five hour commitment every week which is always the uphill battle in getting new or old fans to watch. Monday to a lot of folks is still wrestling night to them.

I think it more speaks to the fact how many people who watch Zeitgesty show's don't have cable anymore because any time a season drops on Netflix it's in their top 10 for a month.

Like the obscene number of ads (at least compared to RAW), the never-ending heat vortex that is the Bloodline, and an incredibly poor women's division. On top of the men's midcard not being fresh either, outside of Gunther.

I don't have regular cable, and forgot it was a regular cable thing and not just a Netflix thing. I also should watch it sometime since I'm sure I'll dig it, but I've got 100 things in that "should watch" list.
