Ah, thanks. That’s nice to have. Yeah, those aren’t going to set the world ablaze, but it’s not surprising. Actually…how are TV-DVD sales in general? With Netflix having (close to) effectively taken over the world, I’d imagine TV-DVD sales are down all over, except (maybe) for HBO shows and other cable shows that Netflix/Hulu don’t/can’t pick up: Game of Thrones for instance (but, lol, that is still the most pirated show out there so…who knows)
There’s definitely been a decline in home video sales over the years, but it’s still a profitable enough business to continue. There are still plenty of people who prefer owning movies and TV shows on physical media, myself included. Take a look at the combined DVD/BD sales for October 18th to get an idea:

SFG
300 years after, give or take.
Don’t be surprised if we see our demo go down a little for tonight’s OUAT, since they’ll be factoring both 508 and 509 together as one rating. I’m predicting a 1.5, or a 1.4 at the very least.
Same. Plus…TWD.
JUST wondering … do they consider DVD sales in the determination of keeping a show on lines… I am thinking all the ONCERS by the BLUE RAY & DVDs. Those that can not watch via streaming or on line probably add the dvds to their collection. . .
It’s not a major factor, no. And not all Oncers buy the DVDs. I don’t, for example. The biggest factor is live viewers because that’s where the money is. DVD sales *help* but not all 5 million people are spending $40 to buy the DVDs and even then the ad buyers don’t care because their commercials aren’t shown on DVDs
For the record, the current Blu-Ray/DVD sales aren’t spectacular, as someone who keeps track of that:

I’m going to go out of limb and suggest that the ring previously belonged to Merlin. Don’t ask how that ring fell into Hook’s possession over the years, but I have a gut feeling due to Elliot Knight teasing that there’s an important connection between Merlin and Hook. Plus, we saw Merlin make a ring for Nimue in the same episode Hook’s ring was introduced.
