The Circus on Showtime Audience Graph • Social Signal

Seven of the ten nearest neighbors to The Circus on Showtime are Journalists — a subcategory that dominates the top 10 so thoroughly that the remaining three slots go to a Government Official, an Academic, and a Politician, with no other TV Shows appearing in the set.

The shape is flat: scores run from Asha Rangappa at 0.93 down to George Conway at 0.93, a band of less than one point separating the top from the bottom. The journalist cluster includes Philip Rucker (0.93), Hallie Jackson (0.93), Natasha Bertrand (0.93), Jim Sciutto (0.93), and Matthew Dowd (0.93) — all political and national-security reporters. The three non-journalists reinforce the same thematic gravity: James Comey (0.93) is a Government Official, Neal Katyal (0.93) is an Academic, and George Conway is a Politician — all figures whose public profiles are anchored in law, governance, and political accountability. No other TV Shows appear in the top 10.

The flat shape and the tight subcategory concentration together indicate an audience defined less by television consumption habits than by sustained engagement with political journalism and legal commentary.
