  1. Spud,

    The numbers you have posted are obviously wrong, because once again, they indicate that Countdown is #4 in the 8 p.m. ET timeslot. This cannot be true, because we read constantly that this program is “soaring” in the ratings.

    Please recheck the numbers and repost the corrected version of the ratings. Thanks.

  3. According to TVNewser, too, Countdown is #4, behind O’Reilly, Grace and Zahn, in that order.

  4. I second Missy’s statement. :)

  7. Olby and the other idiots are getting cancelled soon. Rumors have MSNBC moving to more canned programming.

    Good riddence to that pompous idiot.
