There wasn’t much of interest in Friday’s preliminary ratings, and what little there was will be adjusted on Monday due to NFL PRESEASON preemptions for ABC in Nashville (the Tennessee vs. Kansas City game), CW in Charlotte (New England vs. Carolina) and CBS (respective local simulcasts in Boston and Kansas City).
The NFL dominated the preliminaries as well, as CBS aired the Detroit vs. Jacksonville game with a 1.4 rating. The only original show on a non-preempted network was NBC’s DATELINE, down 0.2 to 0.8. We’ll look again at the Friday numbers when finals come in after the weekend.
A final meal is served tonight for HANNIBAL, which completes its unlikely 3-year run on NBC.
DEMOGRAPHIC DETAIL: For each broadcast program (or hour segment), the chart below displays preliminary key advertiser demographics (adult 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54 ratings), audience skews (women 18-49, men 18-49 and adults 50+ shares) and total viewership (thousands of people over the age of 2).
CABLE RATINGS: Come back Monday for detailed demographic ratings for top cable programs from this day.

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…
