Happy holidays and welcome all to Volume 25 of The Numbers Game! Analysis indicates a 100% probability of breaking down the numbers of our favorite show.

"Lotsa Latkes", the first of three consecutive new episodes, premiered to 3.607 million viewers on Friday, November 18, a modest 8 percent increase over previous new episode "Escape from Phineas Tower". While good for No. 3 on the night behind Jessie and a college football game, it did fall a few ticks shy of the Cable Top 25 for the week.

The episode did do well in the target demographics, highlighted by Kids 6-11 where it was No. 3 on the week behind Jessie and Good Luck Charlie, with an 18 percent increase over "Phineas Tower". In Tweens 9-14, "Latkes" used a 4 percent increase to check in at No. 6, and it was No. 7 for the week in Kids 2-11, going higher in that age group as well. In the Adults 18-49 category, the new episode checked in with a 0.5 rating, down a couple of notches from last month.

Phineas and Ferb is new again this weekend with "A Phineas and Ferb Family Christmas" premiering Friday, December 2 at 7:45PM Eastern (6:45 Central), sandwiched in between a new Fish Hooks and Good Luck Charlie, It's Christmas! Look for The Numbers Game to cover last weekend's "Ferb Latin" sometime around then, not to mention the backlog that won't take care of itself. Until then, further analysis indicates a 115% necessity of following @RyanStoppable on Twitter. And you know that's true...because the numbers never lie.
