1. What happens to the rating when you have two TV's in the same house watching different programs?
Example:
- Living room: Watching Channel Nine - CSI Mimi
- My bedroom: Watching Channel Seven - Prison Break
2. What happens to the ratings when you just flick through the channels?
Example: Channel Nine to Channel Seven to Channel Ten.
Does that count towards the ratings?

Yes to all your ratings questions: all that data is compiled, sorted and sent to those seeking it's statistical totals. The old fashioned approach, still used to this day, has people employed by Arbitron and Nielsen randomly call people to survey their television viewing habits.
But today, there's a new whiz-bang approach to gathering ratings....espicially amongst satellite customers....without anyone knowing it. Cool? Yeah. Scary? Hey: Big Brother IS watching us......
