THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/20/13

Another night with little for the networks to cheer about. ABC:  The first 90 minutes of the night provided some good news, as THE MIDDLE rebounded a bit from last week’s low to 2.2 (up 0.3), THE NEIGHBORS was up 0.2 to ...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/13/13

A bad night for most. CBS:  SURVIVOR returned from its hiatus with its lowest cycle premiere ever, a 2.4 that was down 0.7 from last Spring’s start.  The show ran 90 minutes, and CBS filled in the gap with a 1.6 BIG BAN...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/6/13

February Sweeps stunts by NBC and CBS both fail. NBC:  The network aggressively promoted last night’s SVU because it featured Mike Tyson as a guest star, but the show dropped 0.2 to 1.5, in 4th place for its hour.  CHIC...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/30/13

A blah night for network TV. FOX:  AMERICAN IDOL may not be the behemoth it used to be, but it’s not going anywhere either, down just a tick to a still-powerful 5.4.  That’s higher than the combined ratings for AB...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/9/13

ABC cleans up on the “specials” programmed elsewhere. ABC:  A great night all around.  THE MIDDLE kicked things off by rising 0.3 from its last airing to 2.4, followed by THE NEIGHBORS, up 0.4 to 2.0. MODERN FAMIL...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/19/12

  Chicago Fire, not for the first time, responds well when it doesn’t face off directly with CSI. NBC:  After the MISS UNIVERSE PAGEANT‘s 1.8 (up slightly from last year), CHICAGO FIRE hit a 1.9, up half a ...

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

…and this is why NBC won’t be running Revolution without a Voice lead-in anytime soon. NBC:  TAKE IT ALL, airing for the first time without the comfort of that Voice audience, collapsed by more than a ratings point...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/5/12

Thanks to Nielsen delays, Chicago Fire had to wait to get some unaccustomed good news. NBC:  CHICAGO FIRE benefits by not airing against a new CSI on CBS, because their audiences, while overlapping, prefer the latter when they...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/21/12

On the network’s menus for Thanksgiving Eve:  heaping platters of series lows.  (It should probably be noted that the reason it made sense for 3 networks to air new episodes last night, despite the anticipated lack of a...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/14/12

Another night to consider how low a rating can justify a back order these days. NBC:  WHITNEY returned to the NBC schedule last night, and the same nobody who watched it last year came back for more.  The show kicked off with...

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

It’s good to be one week after Halloween, as week-to-week comparisons in most cases look unusually good after last week’s low holiday numbers.  The exception is wherever The Voice comes into play. ABC:  Everything...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/31/12

  Halloween is traditionally not a great night for network TV, especially on the younger-skewing side, brecause viewers have other plans.  Last night was no exception. ABC:  With all the promos for NASHVILLE, THE CMA AW...

UPDATED: THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/24/12

World Series Game 1 won the night, but didn’t seem to affect anyone else very much. ABC:  After a slightly increased 2.6 (in final numbers) steady 2.5 from its THE MIDDLE lead-in, THE NEIGHBORS was up a tick to 2.0, stil...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/17/12

Only one of last week’s premieres held its number. CW:  What does it say about the broadcast season when the only good news on a fall night came from CW?  ARROW is looking like a genuine hit with a steady 1.3, beating h...
