Yeh I think TC could start the comback. It definitely needs more MEGA MONEY spinning episodes as it did last night, more gimmicks = higher ratings! Probs eclipse TP next month….we can check back
The 161,000 if higher than the average gap of 2 weeks ago and the average gap this year. It’s the biggest Tuesday gap in 4 weeks. BTW Monday’s margin was 135k.
