Update: I moved the ad break that was at the end of QH2 to the beginning of QH3, instead, after hearing from a second person that doing so is more accurate.
PLEASE NOTE: We used a VOD version of this episode of Smackdown to create the quarter-hour content labels you see in this report, as opposed to a DVR recording with the original ad breaks, which made it difficult to ensure we had the proper timing for the labels. To check these labels, I crowdsourced four volunteers on Twitter who said they had DVR recordings with the original ad breaks. Three of the four said the labels were already correct; one said there were some minor misalignments with the ad breaks. Because three out of four said they were already correct, I’ve left the labels as we originally wrote them. If you see any significant errors or misalignments in these content labels, though, please contact me at brandon@wrestlenomics.com or through Twitter DM. As always, the viewership data, i.e., the P2+ and P18-49 numbers in this report, are obtained through Nielsen sources. The content labels we always produce ourselves using DVR recordings.
