It's my favorite new show of the fall season. > Sorry - that was crueler than I intended. I was just thinking of something I read at TVBTN last week: http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2011/10/11/abc-mayday-pan-am-descends-toward-cancellation/106745/ "After starting reasonably well, *Pan Am<http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/pan-am-abc/> * ratings fell 16% in its second episode, and then fell 27% in its third episode and was ABC's second lowest rated scripted show last week (ahead of only *Charlie's Angels<http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/charlies-angels-abc/> *). That trend is most definitely not its friend. Perhaps ABC forgot that with all the awards that period dramas like *Mad Men<http://tvbythenumbers.com/tag/mad-men-ratings> * and *Boardwalk Empire<http://tvbythenumbers.com/tag/boardwalk-empire-ratings> * have shoveled in, their ratings are *terrible*. *Because the Index is a season average, shows like Pan Am<http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/pan-am-abc/>that have ratings which are changing quickly week to week tend to temporarily have a higher Index than their most recent relative ratings would otherwise indicate.*" -- TV or Not TV ....
