I was doing some research on the net today about what the networks are charging for a 30 second commercial during each of their programs and came across this tidbit..The WB is only charging its advertisers $42,000 per 30 second ad during “Roswell.” I’ll be happy to share other ad prices for other shows if interested.<\/p>\n
Thanks to dluu for sending this in from Variety :)<\/p>\n
In Variety Sept 25-Oct 1 there is an article All Eyes On Monday Battleground. Under the WB: The Frog net fell back 21% in adults 18-34 (to 1.5\/4) and 22% in teens (3.9\/12) with most of these losses in the troublesome 9 o’clock hour.
\nThings improved significantly last April though, with the move of sci-fi drama “Roswell” to the night, and the series is back in that slot this fall. While “Roswell” might seem an odd pairing with the family-friendly 8 p.m. hit “7th Heaven”, it fares much better than anything else the net has tried in the last couple of years.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nThanks to Sheila for sending this in :)<\/p>\n
