From UltimateTV.com Users
More Than 3000 TV Fans 'Grade The Clip'
at Utimate TV's Fall Preview Web Site
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- You
can't judge a book by its cover, but you can judge a show by
its promo -- or so UltimateTV.com ( www.UltimateTV.com )
users did within the site's ``Click the Clip, Pick the Hit''
feature.
Part of UltimateTV.com's Fall Preview
package, ``Click the Clip, Pick the Hit'' offers users the
opportunity to view video previews of the new fall shows,
primarily debuting the week of Sept. 20. They can then grade
the teasers using a letter system with ``A'' as the highest
mark.
The top picks of UltimateTV.com users?
To date, a video clip of The WB's
teen-aliens show ``Roswell'' has topped all promos with 74
percent of users rating it an ``A.'' NBC's ``West Wing'' and
``Freaks and Geeks'' clips also received ``A''s from more
than half the users.
Fox Network's ``Harsh Realm,'' CBS's
``Once and Again'' and ABC's ``Wasteland'' all scored ``A''
grades with 50 percent of the users.
Other top-ranking shows with high ``A''
marks were NBC's ``Stark Raving Mad'' (44 percent), NBC's
``Cold Feet'' (47 percent) and CBS's ``Work With Me'' (41
percent).
