re: the 'Merlin' ratings - it's a Sunday night, the program was already produced so there's no cost to NBC on that score, so I hope the network shows patience with it and let it play out. I deliberately kept from seeking out more than the first episode via "other means" (and with that first it was just YouTube, an ungainly way to watch it), because I wanted to show my support for it. Not that I'm a Nielsen family, sadly.
The US Open over-ran by 13 minutes, so that could be why many didn't find it. By that point, an audience should be pretty invested in whatever show they're watching.
