A total of 7.31 million viewers tuned in to watch Sunday night’s episode ‘Donnie Fatso’. A fair drop-off from last week’s high, but still good figures for this busy time of the year.

A total of 9.56 million viewers tuned in to last night’s episode ‘The Fight Before Christmas’, the highest ratings so far this season for the second week running. These are very positive figures from the show which ended its 21st season with some of its lowest numbers on record. These figures are way above the mark compared to the same time last year and the year before. Maybe the extra viewers tuned in to see this…

A total of 9.42 million viewers watched Sunday night’s episode ‘How Munched Is That Birdie In The Window’ – a new season high! The Cleveland Show followed with 7.45 million viewers, while repeats of Family Guy and American Dad drew 6.41 and 6.15 million viewers respectively.

6.63 million viewers watched last night’s episode ‘The Fool Monty’ — a substantial drop off from last week’s ‘Lisa Simpson, This Isn’t Your Life’, which was the highest rating episode of the six aired to date. Now the show faces its lowest rating episode so far, just seven days later.

A total of 8.97 million viewers watched last night’s new episode ‘Lisa Simpson, This Isn’t Your Life’. These are the highest figures so far this season, which is great news coming off the back of an official announcement regarding the renewal up to Season 23. The numbers were helped by a Football overrun, but certainly shows that there is a casual audience out there that is prepared to watch new episodes of The Simpsons.

A total of 8.20 million viewers watched this year’s belated-Halloween special, Treehouse Of Horror XXI. Unfortunately, this makes it the least watched Treehouse Of Horror episode on record. Below are the figures from the last six years, which demonstrate that an expected increase in viewers based on past trends did not eventuate this year.

The Simpsons pulled its lowest figures for the season so far on Sunday night. 6.72 million viewers watched new episode ‘MoneyBART’. While these figures are still a million away from danger territory, the worrying signs start to appear when you compare viewership to last season. In Season 21, the show did not go below 7 million viewers until January 31st’s ‘Million Dollar Maybe’. From then on, the show failed to recover, posting figures between 5 and 6.3 million for the rest of the season. On the positive side, the show still received higher-than-average figures last week with ‘Loan-a-Lisa’, and the show is bound to recover, as it always does, for the very next new episode “Treehouse Of Horror XXI” which airs November 7.

Sunday’s episode ‘Loan-a-Lisa’ saw a rise in viewership, with 8.95 million viewers tuning in to watch the episode.

A total of 7.76 million viewers tuned in for the twenty-second season premiere of The Simpsons. The Glee-inspired episode titled ‘Elementary School Musical’ received mixed reception by fans on our website prior to the airing — did your original thoughts hold up?

The Simpsons pulled in 6.26 million viewers on Sunday night with ‘The Bob Next Door’. These are increased figures against stronger competition in Survivor: Heroes Vs. Villains season finale, which is great to see. Season 21 is shaping up to pull much stronger figures in its final weeks in comparison to last season, which saw the episode “Four Great Women and a Manicure” pull 5.16 million viewers, remaining the second-least watched episode of all time.

Last night’s episode “Moe Letter Blues” had a total of 5.66 million viewers. The show had a small drop from last weekend which saw over 6 million viewers watching. The drop means that the episode sees itself placed on the five least-watched episodes of all time, rounding out the list at number 5.
