We are very excited to bring you the new website for The Company. This new design will allow us to become a platform as much as a podcast.

Season 3 Premiere Ratings: Is the Nielsen Company the real “Villain”?
September 27, 2008 by Demi · Leave a Comment
9.9 was the magic number for Monday Night’s two-part premiere for Heroes: Villains, but was it magical enough?
The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that the Nielsen ratings are down “25% from last year” and fell even further if you deflate the Generations ratings by removing last year’s Saturday premiere repeat. While Heroes came in at just under 10 million average viewers throughout the two-hour premiere, ABC’s hit reality show Dancing With The Stars garnered just over 21 million viewers during its respective two-hour premiere.
What does this have to say about Heroes this year? Absolutely nothing. Hype had already started from Comic-Con and Heroes fans/creators alike know that it will take some time to gain back the respect of the public. As soon as word of mouth comes in, the show will be just as successful. It’s already leaps and bounds ahead of Season 2 in terms of action and style, so its only a matter of time before the numbers show that.
Of course, the Nielsen Ratings system is a dead relic in the attic of old media. Time to think outside the box, Television Industry.

September 14, 2008 by Demi · Leave a Comment
Hello everybody, despite an editing hiccup the new podcast episode is finally here!
We didn’t really have any show notes for this episode because it was really just our excuse for getting back together and getting our equipment setup and configured correctly again.
Hope you enjoy anyway!
In this episode we ramble about Season One including:
1. Our moment/episode.
2. Angela Petrelli’s transformation from MILF to GILF. 0_0
3. Save the Cheerleader. Save the World. What does it mean?
and much more!
As always, we hope you give us comments and feedback on what you like and dislike. Keep in mind that this is not the format we’ll be in come the Heroes Season 3 premiere, where we will be much more organized with segments and the like.
If you want to be on the show, send us a voicemail at 205-383-4781 or send a text only or an mp3 attachment e-mail to thecompanypodcast@gmail.com
Also, join us for some awesome discussion in our forums! See the link on the left of the website.
