THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 9/14/14

 

Now that NFL football has returned to Sundays, the weekly ratings for NBC, FOX and CBS will be subject to more than the usual amount of adjustments, and we won’t know exactly where those networks stand until final ratings are released on Tuesday morning.

Daily Comp 3way 2014 SUN Sep 14

NBC:  Preliminary numbers for NFL SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL have the game at 9.0, up a full point from last week’s early number.

ABC:  The MISS AMERICA PAGEANT fell 0.4 from last year’s installment to 1.5.  It was preceded by a COUNTDOWN TO MISS AMERICA special that was down 0.3 from last year’s equivalent to 0.6.

CBS:  Currently, the 2-hour UNFORGETTABLE season finale is at 1.1/1.0, but the show started 50 minutes late on the east coast, so that number will change.  It was preceded by a preliminary 2.2 for BIG BROTHER.

FOX:  Reruns, except for a pair of AMERICAN DAD episodes at 1.3/1.3.

DANCING WITH THE STARS airs its season premiere tonight, while AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR and MASTERCHEF have their finales.
