Through the first two days of the current week, Shark Week continues to give Discovery a solid presence in the program rankings (although the network has declined each night from a 2.2 rating on Sunday to around a 1.7 Monday to a 1.3 on Tuesday). Tonight Shark Week continues with Top 10 Sharkdown and Great White Serial Killer, […]

At this late point in the network summer, it wouldn’t make sense to expect much change from the norm. ABC: The move of MISTRESSES to 9PM had only mild effect, as the show climbed 0.1 to 1.0. That was below the 1.1 for the rerun SHARK TANK that preceded it. NBC: With less competition […]
Sunday ratings for last night with comparisons to same night last year and last week. The ratings are unadjusted fast nationals. The Sunday Night Football Game will go up to about a 7.8 adult 18-49 rating in the official nationals after the time zones are counted properly, but it will still be a relatively soft […]

However, THE BLACKLIST held its 2.9 (losing in total viewers to Castle). MONDAY CABLE: MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL (ESPN) was inevitably in front with a tremendous 6.1 rating, just slightly behind […]
The only entertainment America wanted with its turkey last night was football. NBC: NFL FOOTBALL swamped the night, with what we expect will be a 7.0 rating when numbers are adjusted early next week.
