SHOWBUZZDAILY FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 8.21.2015

Posted August 22, 2015 by Mitch Metcalf

  On another night riddled with football preemptions and likely to be adjusted by Monday numbers, there was little to say.  ABC’s WE DAY special went largely unseen at 0.4, and the night’s original 20/20, down 0.2 to 0.7, barely outraged its SHARK TANK rerun lead-in.  NBC’S DATELINE won the night with a paltry 1.0, […]

Posted February 15, 2012 by Mitch Salem

>Viewers didn’t spend their Valentine’s Day evening watching network TV. ABC: The network pretty much left COUGAR TOWN to fend for itself in its season premiere, and it sank rather than swam. The only thing one can say about its anemic 1.8 start was that it held more than 80% of the 2.2 lead-in it […]
