I don’t have much commentary for the TVLoop Movers and Shakers this week as the list is identical to last week.  The top 10 for the week ending February 14 are:

The L Word continues its dominance within the TVLoop community which is increasingly odd given its absence across the rest of social media and online buzz metrics.  For comparison purposes, here’s the most recent list of top buzz-getters as well as the top shows on Twitter.

There are some other interesting things to point out from the Movers and Shakers list this week.  As background, I should point out that I only report on the shows that are currently on the air with new episodes.  We have over 200 TV communities, and some of the most active ones are those that are in syndication (Friends, Sex and the City, etc.).  However I think only those on the air are relevant to our purpose of showing what TV shows people are talking about.

That said, there was one new entry to the top of the list that is quite surprising.  MASH, which has been off the air for over 20 years, checked in at the #5 spot with over 5,000 new users - for a 15% increase in population in one week.  That appears to be driven by one fan chain called Nurses are Hot - Pass it On which has been passed on by almost 32,000 MASH fans.  Just shows that you never know what kind of spark is going to ignite a community and drive growth.
