Re: Guardian: "Sky Atlantic won't be on Virgin Media soon, says BSkyB boss"
Looks like I was right about Sky Atlantic.... it's certainly struggling to attract many viewers.

Treme: Sky Atlantic, 10.15pm – the UK premiere of David Simon's latest drama followed the pattern set by The Wire. Much talked about – even sometimes in the Guardian – but not so much watched.
Friday's opening episode of the post-hurricane Katrina New Orleans drama averaged 66,000 viewers and a 0.5% audience share.
FX's True Blood is faring better, averaging 236,000 (1.3%) from 10pm.
The 9pm hour showcased two contrasting multichannel music shows, with ITV2's American Idol (523,000/2.2%) up against BBC4 documentary Toots and the Maytals: Reggae Got Soul (216,000/0.9%).
Also in the 9pm slot, The Simpsons made an uneasy transition into peaktime on Sky1 with two new episodes averaging 275,000 (1.2%) and 323,000 (1.4%).
