Mad Men, Family Guy Top Shows for Online Audience

A&E hit show Mad Men was the top show in General Sentiment and Q Scores' inaugural Prime-Time Television Audience Evaluation Report (TVAER). Mad Men narrowly beat out Family Guy, broadcast television's top show during the week of September 6 – 12. Overall, broadcast television dominated, with 12 of the 13 highest ranked shows in the Prime-Time TVAER.

The Prime-Time TVAER is a collaborative effort from media measurement technology firm, General Sentiment, and consumer appeal specialists, Q Scores. It combines data from General Sentiment's Involvement Index, which measures the online discussion/word-of-mouth generated by prime-time TV shows, with Q Scores' Emotional Bonding Q, which determines a program's ability to hold onto its most important viewers over time.
