I'd need to check but doesn't ITunes do it's top sellers the same way e-book sites and Amazon et all do them? The top sellers aren't top sellers from the beginning of time, they are weekly results (or in the case of Amazon and some other sites - daily - and in some cases HOURLY). In which case it makes perfect sense that the most recent episodes are top rated. People buy the most recent ones first. I know that's what I do with ITunes. So if there are people coming back after the hiatus and they have missed an episode or have one they particularly want then they buy the most recent ones.
It's kinda the same way that ratings are so difficult to judge without looking at several other factors. What else was on in that time slot. What the total number of viewers in that slot was compared to the week before. What the week befores episode and trailer did to continue a storyline into the new episode to encourage people to tune in...
It's all relative.Comment

Yeah, thought so. It's a marketing ploy. The theory being if there's a top ten list or a best sellers list then people are more likely to impulse buy. Once they buy one episode then they're shown the others and you get tempted further into the spending money web...
Book and DVD sales have been that way online for years.Comment

I wouldn't be so quick to say it was Lana's return that brought in viewers. It's just as likely that word has gotten around as to how controversial this epi was and people are interested in seeing what the fuss is all about.Comment

Odyssey is also the season opener, which, if going by weekly standards, makes sense that some people begin with the most recent episodes and others start from the beginning. After Odyssey is Bride, which is also pretty recent. I'm sure the numbers going further down the list are a lot closer to each other, but the top three are usually the most recent for any show. Not a coincidence.Comment

Because she knew her fans would enjoy it? I seriously think Kristin stopped trying to please the whole Smallville fandom a long time ago, because regardless what's done with her character it seems the fandom will always complain about it!
Even before Lana came back, even before spoilers were released, people were having an issue with her returning. So why on earth would she even care to think about anyone outside from the group of fans who've supported her and her character for the past 8 seasons?Last edited by Kreukie; 02-02-2009, 12:50 PM.Comment
