Supernatural Season Five DVD Sales – Week Two Update
More US DVD sales news! According to The Numbers, Supernatural Season Five sold 55,049 DVD units in its second week. That brings the total to 248,876 with total revenue of $9,454,799. Not bad for two weeks of release. Companion show Smallville Season Nine sold 54,053 units for a total of 220,773 and $8,385,647.
Here’s a fun little fact. Glee was in its first week and sold 187,525 units. That’s roughly 6,000 less than what Supernatural sold in its first week. Grey’s Anatomy Season Six sold in its first week 186,330 units. Fringe Season Two in this first week only sold 96,087 units. So score one for the smaller show! Also,The Vampire Diaries in three weeks sits at 208,095 units. Okay, how about this? In three weeks, House has only sold 236,430 units.
I so love getting to play numbers geek like this. Congratulations Supernatural!
It’s good to hear that Supernatual is doing well in DVD sales. 🙂
I have to admit I am not a specialist when it comes to numbers (though I am so very interested in statistics). That our show is doing this well is indeed amazing. Perhaps that will help us get some more seasons? And House is a bit behind, eh? That show lost its drive long ago. I used to love it, but I stopped watching it also long ago.
I hope that will never happen to Supernatural. If it goes out one day, then with a bang and not because the scripts are getting weaker and weaker…
thanks for bringing this to our attention, Jas
Thanks, Alice,
I like it when you play the numbers geek. 😀
It’s nice to see that although our little show may not get the numbers of Glee, House, Grey’s even TVD, that we do make up for it in longevity via the DVD sales. No doubt those dollars in hand help the CW figure out who to renew and who not to.
I understand that. Since I began a fan of the show, I feel often that it’s something special. Well, for me it’s something special and unique in TV. So, I buy every DVD set to keep it, because I need to rewatch it and to know that someday I could show it to my son. House, Fringe, they are good, maybe. Like others. But they are not unique. I think I’d be proud to say “I was a part of this, look …”
Well, that’s pretty cool. Thanks for posting this, Alice!
Always happy to read about Supernatural’s “successes”
Yay!!!! Supernatural just rocks!
