Today I got a Nielsen Rating packet in the mail.
Along with promotional papers I got the prepaid return envelop, the survey and two one dollar bills.
I was expecting a list of major networks, A list of all the prime time shows and a list of time slots with a 1-5 rating for each. I even expected a place to write my own comments.
What I got was:
Do you watch tv? (I put YES)
What types of shows do you watch? (I put Scifi & Fantasy, Horror and some Crime Drama)
Do you own a DVR? (I put NO)
What is your age bracket? (I selected Over 50)
Are you of Hispanic Origin? ( I put NO)
What is your Nationality? ( I selected WHITE) They didn't offer "American"
Do you speak Spanish? (I put NO) [if NO please skip #8 and #9 and go directly to #10]
Do you have a Cell Phone? (I put YES)
Do you have a Landline based Phone? (I put NO)
May we call you for future surveys? Just provide your Number or email address in the spaces provided. Leave blank to not be contacted? (I left them BLANK)
Thats It.
