The entire roster must be eating nothing but struggle flakes at this point. It's like frosted flakes but with 100% more struggle.

I knew it'd be a disastrous number, but was expecting more around 400,000-ish. This though... Yeah. Sticking to my guns that they'll be dead before the end of the year and quite possibly before the end of the summer.

Another note Bryan related on the B&V show last night he emailed them to ask what other platforms TNA would be available on and they told him to contact his local library.

So basically they've announced that they've resigned all the pricy guys on their roster and brought back Kong... and their viewers are 1/4th of what they're used to? For the Super-hyped "live" debut show?
I get that the ratings don't matter as long as DA is happy, but for them to be happy with so little they can't be giving TNA much. That and we can't be sure that DA is happy with so little... Maybe they were expecting TNA's audience to follow them and the show to do at least 400k. I mean they paid to get a bump in their audience, not to pay (presumably) a lot more for something that does comparable ratings to what they already have.

As long as they maintain the highest rating for the network, which doesn't seem hard to do, and perhaps air the programming on the internet, they should be fine.

It's not just about being better than everything DA has, it's about Discovery feeling they're getting their money's worth. For example: I don't think they'll pay 100% more for a program that only has 10% more viewers, whether those 10% make it the most watched show on their channel or not. Discovery has shown over the past year that they can be VERY stingy with money when they want to be. Just ask Mythbusters.

If DA is paying them enough to get by, then they'll get by as long as they cut corners with production and maybe sign more cheap guys instead of big names. It's hard to know what to expect since we don't know how much DA is paying them and whether it's enough for TNA to live off of. After they burned their bridges with the Impact Zone and went on the road full-time without forecasting the expense, I'm not sure we can even give them the benefit of the doubt in this case.

I feel like TLC might have been a better place for TNA as far as availability goes. It's in quite a bit more homes than Destination America which would help raise the ratings.
