| - "Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars" emanated from the distant reaches of outer space on Saturday, July 26. 2.479 million viewers felt the force of the new episode, a welcome 25 percent increase over the previous week (spoiler alert) and 6 percent higher than the previous hour-long episode "Phineas and Ferb Save Summer". Honestly, though, The Numbers Game was hoping for/expecting to see an even bigger jump than that. The special shined brightest within Adults 18-49, where a 0.5 demographic rating made it Saturday night's top cable original in the age group. It did not fare as well among its target age groups, failing to crack the Top 10 for the week in any of them.

| - "Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars" emanated from the distant reaches of outer space on Saturday, July 26. 2.479 million viewers felt the force of the new episode, a welcome 25 percent increase over the previous week (spoiler alert) and 6 percent higher than the previous hour-long episode "Phineas and Ferb Save Summer". Honestly, though, The Numbers Game was hoping for/expecting to see an even bigger jump than that. The special shined brightest within Adults 18-49, where a 0.5 demographic rating made it Saturday night's top cable original in the age group. It did not fare as well among its target age groups, failing to crack the Top 10 for the week in any of them. Before that, Phineas and Ferb brought another new episode to Disney Channel, with "The Klimpaloon Ultimatum" premiering there on Friday, July 18. 1.991 million viewers had proof that they watched it, a 2 percent decrease from the previous week's "The Return of the Rogue Rabbit / Live and Let Drive". That number also marks a 24 percent decrease from its lead-in Girl Meets World, further proving that those two shows don't have the same audience. Much like the Star Wars special, this new episode failed to find the Top 10 in any of its target age groups; unlike it, it only scored a 0.3 among Adults 18-49. "Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars" makes its Emoticon premiere on Monday, August 4 at 7:30PM Eastern (6:30 Central). If you haven't seen it yet, or even if you have, you really ought to check it out (and then stick around for a brand new Gravity Falls at 9:30). On Disney Channel, Phineas and Ferb returns to the new airwaves next Friday, August 8 at 9:30PM Eastern (8:30 Central) with "It's No Picnic". The Numbers Game will have ratings for it, and last Friday's "Imperfect Storm", in the next issue. Until then, leave your comments down below, don't be part of the 14 percent more scum and villainy, and remember...that the numbers never lie.
