Fast Demo 2017 Sep 01.FRI

NBC:  The closest thing to a network event was the documentary DIANA, 7 DAYS, which suggested the appetite for Princess Diana programming may be exhausted with 0.6.  DATELINE was steady at 0.8.

ABC:  20/20 dipped 0.1 to 0.6.  The night started with 0.6/0.7 reruns.

CBS:  Reruns at 0.4-0.5.

FOX:  Reruns at 0.5/0.4.

CW:  Reruns at 0.2-0.3.
