30 Rock debuted in Germany yesterday and it scored a 0.0 in the ratings meaning less than 5,000 people tuned in to watch it according to The Hollywood Reporter. Ouch!
ZDFNeo picked up the show to reach a younger demographic, but instead it didn’t pick up any demographic. 30 Rock doesn’t do well here in the ratings, I wonder why Germany would think it would do any better for them over there? I mean I never would’ve thought that Tina Fey’s Emmy winning show would do well anywhere but The US because it is a very Americanized show that I don’t think has worldwide appeal. Personally I never got the show, but I know people who love it.
