Powered by the debut of “Stargate: Universe” and the return of “Sanctuary,” SyFy had its strongest October ever according to the network.
“Syfy jumped to #3 in A25-54 and #4 among A18-49 versus all basic cable entertainment networks – its second best monthly ranking ever in these demos behind December 2002 when Steven Spielberg’s record-setting ‘Taken’ premiered,” the network said in a press-release. “The record October performance was fueled by strong ratings from ‘Stargate Universe’ and ‘Sanctuary’ — which both premiered this month — ‘Ghost Hunters’ and ‘Destination Truth’, the two highest-rated paranormal investigative series on television, along with the annual 31 Days of Halloween spook-a-thon.”
Across the board, ratings were good for the network, including an average of 2.85 million viewers for “Universe,” an average of 2.2 million viewers for “Destination: Truth” and an audience of 2.6 million for the Saturday night movie, “Megafault.”
I’m just shocked 2.6 million people actually watched “Megafault” …
