Support Major Crimes- Thank the Advertisers!
On the occasion of the Major Crimes season premiere, we’ve decided to bring back our Thank the Advertisers Campaign, to help us show our support for Major Crimes in the terms that make sense to the network executives: advertising dollars. We hope you’ll join us every week for this campaign, as we all work towards a common goal: keeping Major Crimes on the air for many years to come.
Want to help support Major Crimes ? Join us in thanking the sponsors and advertisers that help make it possible! The point here is to thank the the advertisers who have bought ad time during Major Crimes for their support of the show- by showing them that the Major Crimes viewers are both devoted and brand savvy, we show them that this is a show they want to continue doing business with, thus encouraging them to sign on for future seasons, which then encourages TNT to produce future seasons. So here’s how it works:
1. Watch the show live (if you can, though many of us can’t, and that’s OK too), or through one of the other means (iTunes Download, Amazon.com, TNTdrama.com website)
2. After the episode, tune in here or to our twitter feed (@MajorCrimesTV) to see the advertiser handles for that evening. Send a tweet to each advertiser (and to @TNTDrama) thanking them for their support. Throw in your own fun fact for the advertiser. If Toyota runs a commercial and your family has one, let them know!
@BestBuy saw your ad on @TNTDrama’s #MajorCrimes. Just bought my #MajorCrimes DVD’s from you- thanks for supporting the show!
Make sure to include the following in each tweet.
-The twitter handle for both the advertiser and TNT (@TNTDrama) -Some mention that you saw the ad on #MajorCrimes (mentioning the ad shortly after it airs will prove that we are paying attention) -A quick thank you for their support of the show. -If you have space, feel free to include the @MajorCrimesTNT twitter handle Also, this might go without saying, but if you have a protected (locked) Twitter account, this will not work (the advertisers won’t see your tweets). So in order to participate, you may have to open up a public account just for this purpose, or unlock your tweets for a bit.
Please write your own tweet (hitting the Retweet button does not have nearly the impact). It can be similar to ours, but give it a little variation. Please be polite to the advertisers- we want them to see that the Major Crimes watchers are an intelligent bunch that would represent a good target audience for their brand.

MCTV Exclusive: Michael Paul Chan Talks Tao and Why This Is ‘Major Crimes’ “Best Season Ever”
Michael Paul Chan, the man behind everyone’s favorite tech-wizard and veteran cop, took some time out of his season four filming schedule to chat with us about how season four is going for him, and tonight’s Tao-centric episode of Major Crimes.
Major CrimesTV: How is it going so far for season four?
Michael Paul Chan: To be honest this is my best season ever; physically, and mentally, it’s really going good for me. This season for some reason we just, there is just such a connection, with all of us, it’s really cool. I think knowing what kind of a show we were, you know like being with The Closer for seven years, we kept putting the time and effort into this. And we had to accept that this was a brand new show, and for me for this season it just seems kind of right in sync.
MCTV: James Duff has said that the theme for the season is “courage”. Does that theme affect Tao at all?
MPC: It hits me full-force in (tonight’s episode). But I can’t say anything more than that about it.
M CTV : Last season it was revealed Tao had a side job as a consultant on a familiar-sounding cop show, Badge of Justice – are we going to continue to see any of that this season?
MPC: That I don’t know, we haven’t touched on it yet. It was fun to play with, but it seems that that was all last year and we’ve kinda moved on because of all the things that we deal with this season.
But I’ve gotten the heads up that James always likes to, he’s into numbers and I’m into numbers, so he always says, get ready for number eight! Eight is a good luck number. It’s such a fu nny premise, but it’ll be fun because it’s a whole other thing to deal with.
MCTV: Tao is often the rock for the team, who holds things together. Does the pressure of that role ever get to him?
MPC: In (tonight’s episode) something happens and you see the vulnerable side of him, and hopefully we’ll get to deal with that a little bit more. Because something happens to him.
MCTV: What else can you tell us about this season?
MPC: More of his cop-side is coming out, you know because he’s always been the cool techy nerd, so more of his cop-side is coming out. He sees a little harder-edged this season, which has been lots of fun to do.
Major Crimes airs tonight at 9pm/8c on TNT.
Ratings – Major Crimes 50th Episode Wins Night; Stays Steady in Sophomore Outing.
On the heels of its strong season debut ratings, Major Crimes remained steady in its milestone 50th episode, winning the night as the Most Watched Scripted Cable Program with 3.81 million viewers.
Despite the expected ratings drop for the sophomore episode of the season, Major Crimes still performed strongly, retaining a close to 90% of its premiere audience, and in key demographics stayed steady at 0.5 million viewers, on par with the premiere. Meanwhile, sister TNT series Murder in the First lost close to half of it’s lead-in audience, a further decline from that shows premiere ratings.
Last weeks season pre miere of Major Crimes continued to gain momentum in time-shifted viewing, and was the second most-watched drama across all cable networks, behind only the season finale of Game of Thrones . As we first reported yesterday, the season premiere virtually doubled its viewership in Live + 3, with 7.0 total viewers turning in via DVR and multi-platform views. In key demos Major Crimes tripled its impact, rising to 2 million viewers in adults 25-54, and 1.4 million viewers in adults 18-49. Those numbers are expected to further rise, with the season premiere currently projected to score approximately 8.3 million total viewers once Live + 7 data is available.
Congratulations again to the cast and crew of Major Crimes on 50 amazing episodes!
