FYI, Xavier: when you post ratings, you need to cite your source, with a link if available.

It's only a drop of 13,000, which isn't even 10%.

Looking at other ratings, I find it amusing that Court TV is doing significantly better than MTV.  Also, what is NAN?  I can't think of anything off the top of my head and it wasn't covered previously.

Incidentally, July's rating is the same as, IIRC, May's rating.  The network only had a mild upturn in June that's probably more to do with the random fluctuations of the Nielsen system than anything.  GSN's been ranging between around 175,000 and 185,000 for a few months now.  It's not good, but at least they haven't fallen out of the top 50.

There has been some rumblings about how that might possibly happen, especially considering how Versus is tanking and how Comcast doesn't seem to be moving forward very quickly on the US version of NHL Network that was supposed to be part of the deal.

I'd like Thorne (and maybe Clement, if NBC would let him go) back. I would rather not have The Mouse treating the game as a fourth-class citizen again, considering they have significant baseball, basketball, and football deals. So I'm torn: I want the game to expand because I truly feel it's the greatest game in the world; I don't trust ESPN to help them, but there is no really viable alternative if Versus keeps tanking.

Hell, I didn't realize you could get a 1.0 just by running Roseanne, Fresh Prince, and Cosby into the ground.

NBC hasn't really treated it well either - especially leaving an overtime game in last year's Conference Finals - but I know their ratings haven't been very good.

I think it did quite well on ESPN for a while.  It got good enough ratings for them to keep it on the schedule for many years - and come playoff time some nights it was on both ESPN and the Duece as well.  Maybe they'd have a chance of increasing their ratings if it went back.

(I guess I'm speaking selfishly...because I don't get VS!)

I've heard rumblings from the dbsforums.com Sports Forum (of which a couple of members here are also members there) that NBC has already let him go.  NBC apparently plans to do the studio shows next season on-site from the game they'll be carrying, and Pierre McGuire will handle hosting chores as well as heading back to ice level during games.

I wonder if McGuire will handle regular studio wraps (news and highlights from other sports--they could easily fold those in from New York).

No, they haven't, that's true. But at least NBC doesn't have the NBA deal overshadowing it.

It seems funny to me that with Costas and now Michaels on the payroll, they can't get one or both in on the hockey coverage. It would feel far more big league if they did. At least they imported Don Cherry for a couple games.
