THE SKED MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 6/18/12

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/11/12

An ugly night all around. NBC:  AMERICA’S GOT TALENT has come crashing down this week, and last night hit a season low 1.9.  None of this will matter in 2 weeks when the Olympics start, of course, but the show may need ...
