Bellwether

(Maybe I should have written "bellweather." Eh. I'm sure I will, still.)

Good signs: "There have been two Flight 93 projects on TV, both drawing strong viewers. In January, A&E earned its largest audience ever (5.9 million viewers) with "Flight 93." Last fall, Discovery's "The Flight That Fought Back" (a mix of re-enactments and interviews) averaged 7 million viewers."

And bad signs: "By a slim margin the film is the top choice among males, but it's also registering a high percentage of "definitely not interested."

And good signs: "Indeed many industry insiders were surprised "United 93" got Universal's greenlightgreenlight at all."

Just out of curiosity, 6 million viewers at $6 is $36 million. So we need 17 million viewings to break $100 million, eh?
