You're right I don't have children but at same time, I would expect it was moms who got awaken earlier. But that's not the point.

Even if the dads got up that early, you would expect the TV got occupied by the kids "first" and not adults, and either way kids would get involve.

For the claim that working men are the reason for rating spike, the kid shouldn't get involve to this and dad factor is moot unless the dads are forcing kids to watch anime they don't like or kicked them away from the TV, and I doubt that would be the case. Kids are pretty persistent. (while I don't have kids I got cousins and siblings 10-20 years younger than me so I got my shares of babysitting)

Besides, kids would watch anything fun. I mean most of the gag-comedians (1-shot comedians) are supported by the kids more than adults so I won't really put it that.

But I would suspect the subject being space would help, kids loves space and astronauts.
