Ratings analysis follows the […]
For NBC, the preseason was nice while it lasted. NBC: The network launched its Thursday line-up last night against little or no competition from 2 of the other networks…. and fell off a cliff. THE OFFICE, the last remnant of “must see TV,” tied its lowest-rated airing ever at 2.1, which was down a ghastly […]
It’s getting to be time for the season’s first cancellation. CBS: MADE IN JERSEY plummeted to 0.8, below even (gulp!) Fringe, and can’t be long for this world. It probably didn’t have much effect on the long-running CSI NY and BLUE BLOODS that surround it, but they’re slumping too, with twin 1.2s that are far […]
AMERICAN HORROR STORY returned last night with a different storyline, setting and cast, and also brought along some new viewers to scare.

It was the story of Reagan and Chris Brinkley (Christina Applegate and Will Arnett), who had to cope with becoming new parents and the resulting loss of their “coolness” factor. Chris was a stay-at-home dad, while Reagan worked […]
The only faint sign of ratings life came from the US OLYMPIC TRIALS. 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 […]
ABC turned in a 1.8 rating with adults 18-49 last night, down from the 2.0 last week but still #1 for the night. Last Man Standing and Malibu Country each posted a 1.6 rating in their second week (down four-tenths of a rating point for Last Man and down a hefty seven tenths for Malibu). The comedies fell to second place […]
