Overnight ratings for S5x21. According to Mediaweek, last night's episode 'Power Play' got 3.9/5 and demolished UPN.

And post all any other ratings stuff in here.

WOW!!!! Ratings do more talking to studios then save campaigns, come on WB you idiots!!Angel has gotten all this exposure, it may be the wrong method, but canceling a show, fans advertising the hell to save it, may have just improved ratings and show promise if there was another season.

Schadenfreude is coursing sweetly through my veins -- take that, Top Model! Take that, UPN that turned down Angel!

"Not Fade Away," indeed.

I believe 3.9 is pretty good, right? At least for The WB?

Granted, the UPN competition was lightweight: a repeat of a America's Next Model special. (Doesn't UPN realize this is Sweeps month?)

However, ANGEL's total Overnights are an improvement over last week's 3.8/5, while down among 18-49 to 2.1/5 from May 5's 2.4/6. Smallville barely did better among the 18-49 year olds: 2.1/6.

You know this also proves another point - if you promote it people will watch. They promoted the end of the series more than the promoted the series this season.

From Zap2it; "Angel," 2.7/4, kept The WB in fifth.

Not to play devil's advocate, but it was higher than a repeat of the America's Next Top Model special. If it was an original episode, things might have turned out differently...

It is interesting to note that Angel maintained Smallville's ratings in the ever important 18-49 bracket...

Yeah it is pretty good. Still higher than previous seasons and stil very consistent. Little good it does but it's still nice.
