ABC is hoping that in May, when HP makes it debut, they will bring in the ratings. Article:
Thanks to Wizardnews Quote: ABC hopes to make ratings magic with a night of television built around the network debut of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" (search) -- and a sneak peek at the third Warner Bros. film in the franchise.
The 2001 movie, starring Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint and directed by Chris Columbus, will air on Sunday, May 9, (7 p.m. EDT), in an extended, high-definition version that includes previously unseen footage, the network announced this week.
It will be followed by a 10-minute look at "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban," directed by Alfonso Cuaron, which opens in theaters on June 4.
All told, ABC will devote four hours to the Harry Potter phenomenon as part of May "sweeps," a key ratings measurement period used to help set local advertising rates.
The broadcast will include interviews from the "Harry Potter" set with Radcliffe, Watson and Grint. The films, which include 2002's "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," are based on the best-selling books by J.K. Rowling. Foxnews  | |

I think it will get the ratings mainly because of the 10 minute preview. Quote: I already saw PS on CBC like 2 months ago. its not it's tv debut. It is it's debut on network TV not cable.

Well I don't have a DVD, big deal! I wouldn't be able to wach this too, though. Not that I care that much, I went to the cinema several times and had enough  I guess I'm a bad fan. Ah well, but at least I reread the books 20 times a month...

Wow! ABC Network seems desperate to get Harry Potter on there to get them ratings! Well, of course i'll be watching, mainly to see the 10 minutes worth of snippets and such from POA.

I'm watching it for both actually, I think they said that PS/SS would have never-before-seen footage and I haven't PS/SS in ages anyway, so it'll be a treat to see it. My DVD is collecting dust in my cupboard lol. I've been going it around and watching stuff like PotC, 8 Mile, and Nemo. I'm gonna tape it though, just in case I go out unexpectedly.
