Ratings data is from Gateworld (except for 'The Shroud', which was estimated as 1.1 by data from outside sites. It is possible that it will be a 1.2)
The dropoff in viewership is dramatic - and steady.
I find it astonishing that the Daniel and Jack fans (whether seen as a couple or as individuals) didn't make more of a dramatic upwards change in the ratings for 'The Shroud'. Both Shanks and Anderson were back for that episode, and yet, the ratings hardly changed at all. The folks who like those characters (and those who thunk after the actors) - many of those fans would surely have their ears and eyes open watching for the return of their favorites? What comes across to me, however, is that too many folks don't like the new direction of the show over the past couple of years and it isn't worth watching their favorite characters and actors in episodes that the fans don't like or appreciate - or even look forward to... it's more like watching to see if things 'aren't that bad'... and that's depressing. Better off doing something else with the time.
