How are shows rated?

In the United States, viewership is usually measured by Nielsen people who conduct surveys of a small fraction of all American homes. Each home has a “people meter” which can monitor the channel and program being watched, as well as the number of viewers. People Meters record the whole household’s viewing habits. The Nielsen ratings are then compiled and made public.
