‘Bob’s Burgers’ Has The Poorest Viewers Of Any Current TV Show

If you’re a Bob’s Burgers fan, you’re probably someone who’d go to Bob’s Burgers for cheap burgers, cheaper fries, and cheapest conversations with Teddy. That’s because, according to the Wrap, the Fox animated series has the poorest viewers of any current show on the Big Four. But at least we have our integrity, i.e. we don’t watch Nashville.

The median Modern Family viewer in the 18-49 demographic rakes in $81,100 annually, according to Nielsen data. Bob’s Burgers watchers in the demo, on the other hand, earn around $48,000 per year.

Neither are particularly rich or poor — but the ratings company carefully tracks even minor differences in wealth because advertisers want to wring out as much as they can from the people who watch their shows.

TheWrap found the gap between ABC’s Modern Family and Fox’s Bob’s Burgers by looking at Nielsen’s average median income of primetime viewers this season for the four biggest broadcast networks — not including sports, specials, or awards ceremonies. (Via)
