Galactica Ratings Up For Season 4

This is unusual. Most continuity heavy tv series have declining ratings as there are fewer jumping on points. [Link]
Seven episodes into its fourth season, the show is up 4% among adults 18 to 49 (averaging 1.4 million viewers) compared to the show's "Season 3.5" 2007 run. When you factor only episodes that have full-seven days of DVR use available, the show is up 18%. Total viewers (2.1 million) are up even more. Also: Last season the show aired on Sunday nights, a night with higher audience levels. Why this is interesting: "Battlestar" been on a downward ratings trend the past few years. Serialized shows, as many have pointed out, do not usually gain in the ratings.
Good news.
