SNAPPED BREAKS PREVIOUS RECORDS

Snapped Celebrates Its Highest Rated and Most Watched Episode Ever

NEW YORK -- April 8, 2008. Sunday's "Snapped" premiere episode ("Michelle Michael") generated series high results on several key measures. Currently in its most successful season ever, Sunday's episode delivered a series high 1.0 HH rating. The show also saw record viewership for the series among key demos including W18-49 (414,000), P18-49 (534,000) and total viewers (848,000). Compared to the "Snapped" season five average, Sunday's premiere was ahead by 117% with W18-49, 102% with P18-49 and 60% among total viewers.

A marathon of the "Seven Deadliest Snapped" episodes built momentum for Sunday's premiere episode. This marathon, coupled with the success of this season of "Snapped" led to Sunday's milestone. Immediately following "Snapped" on Sunday, "Captured" saw its highest rated (0.8 HH) and most watched telecast ever among W18-49 (345,000), P18-49 (450,000) and total viewers (693,000).
