Also not happy were fans of Adult Swim’s Rick and Morty, when a McDonald’s stunt involving Szechuan sauce went sour. The fast food chain, responding to Rick & Morty’s mention of the sauce, offered a one-day promotion on October 7 – and wildly underestimated demand. “Between the costumes, the memes and the cross-state travel, you, the fans showed us what you got. And our super-limited batch, though well-intentioned, clearly wasn’t near enough to meet that demand. ‘Not cool,’” tweeted MdD’s, promising lots more sauce and locations this winter.

RATINGS
 
The launch of Disney XD’s DuckTales on September 23 ranked as the net’s #1 animated series launch in 2 ½ years in total viewers (662,000) and Kids 2-11 (311,000/.8 rating).
 
The season 4 premiere of CBS’s Madam Secretary on Sunday drew 7.1 million viewers and a .8/3 rating among A18-49, up 18% in viewers and even in the demo versus its season 3 bow.
 
There was a shift in shows that best captured viewer attention in September, according to Dan Schiffman, CRO for TVision. “Game shows and reality TV, which topped the ranks in summer attention, gave way to scripted television in the Fall TV lineup,” Schiffman told Cynopsis. “New season premieres like Great News and Young Sheldon, achieved the most attention as September sitcoms and dramas took over the top ranks in Broadcast Attention.” (Of course, attention doesn’t always correspond with ratings – among cable’s top 5 was Bravo’s just-canceled Odd Mom Out.)
