Got a 1.6. However, people should take this with a grain of salt. This show is downloaded, streamed, huluized, DVRed, taped (if they still exist), and on top of that Friday being the big NCAA night. I doubt many people were watching a TV show.
The Nielsen Rating (http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/List_of_Nielsen_ratings_%28RDM%29) system is flawed. Period.

It's not so much flawed as obsolete. It used to be a perfectly valid, if imperfectly precise, system. But that was a long time ago.

I don't really care about the Nielsen rating system. It is flawed, obsolete and needs to be ripped up from the ground and upward.
Also, the 1.6 HH rating is actually better than the season finale's rating of 1.2 HH.
Of course, it doesn't help the Nielsen rating that it was already streamed live. Plus the rating doesn't count for the encore presentation early Saturday morning.
I could go on, but I choose not to, since there's really no point in discussing the obvious elephant in the room that's long since turned into a rotting carcass.
