Worst rated Thanksgiving IMPACT ever and worst of the year. Oh well, it's not like it was a good show or anything.

Not shocking at all. Thanksgiving, Black Friday started earlier this year, and going against Steelers vs Ravens, there's also the spoilers not looking good.

Thankfully, those that didn't watch didn't really miss anything.

Not good. I long for the days when 1.1 was the average rating, and ratings dropped to 1.0 for holidays.

Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez (well mostly Alvarez) acted like it was a great and fun to watch show. But it sounded pretty horrible to me...
I'm kind of surprised by the rating though, as TNA viewers usually remain loyal even on Thanksgiving.

I'm kind of surprised by the rating though, as TNA viewers usually remain loyal even on Thanksgiving. I enjoyed the show. It was a very welcome change of pace from the normally super-serious, Aces & 8's shows that featured beat-downs with hammers. I had a good laugh at numerous moments; especially those involving Roode, Bad Influence & Chris Sabin. Those guys were on fire all night. There weren't any classic "5-star" matches or anything of the like, but I was really entertained & they had a proper ending for a feel-good show, with a food fight where the good guys come out on top. I was having a really crappy day that day, but watching that show really cheered me up. I may be in the minority but everything clicked that night & it was a really good show to watch if you don't take it too seriously in the long run. Also, line-of-the-night has to go to Kazarian: 'Joseph Park tested positive for gravy'. Hilarious line.

It wasn't as bad as some people on here have made it seem, but, outside of a couple segments, you didn't miss a lot.

I have a soft spot for the tiny underdogs since watching the likes of Mikey Whipwreck & Spike Dudley & those two are flat-out brilliant in their roles. I can imagine they'll get a huge pop if they .. I don't know ... get a pin over EC3 in a 6-man tag match or something like that. I also forgot to mention how great it was to see Zema Ion back. He fits in perfectly with the Bro-Mans.

Yeah, Zema was great, especially doing the airhorn sound after everything Robbie & Jessie did.

Seems like whenever TNA gets a really horrible rating (as opposed to the usual, just horrible), there's always an excuse like "it was on Thanksgiving" or it was on Valentine's Day etc...
Reminds me of Jakks Pacific (WWF/WWE action figure company known for making more than a few horrible figures). When Jakks did some major mistake their HQ excuse was it was "Chinese New Year."

I've only just caught up with the thanksgiving episode, I thought it was AMAZING, one of the best Impacts I have ever seen. I wish TNA was like this all the time and just embrace the silly campy side of wrestling like it did with this show.

Instead of punishing people for missing by putting on must-watch TV, TNA puts out lazy garbage with one and a half worthwhile segments and punishes loyal viewers. You're not exactly loyal, all you do is shit on the product every single week. You may watch every week but that is from addiction not loyalty.

My football team is the Redskins, I watch them get hammered every week and I bury them for being shitty, but that doesn't make me disloyal, it makes me someone that wants the team to get their shit together. Same concept.
