THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 6/4/13

  Talent competition shows continued to dominate network television. NBC:  After THE VOICE‘s new Tuesday low 3.0 (down 0.2 from last week), AMERICA’S GOT TALENT premiered with a 3.1 rating from 9-11 pm (3.0, 3...

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 6/3/13

  Only one show on network TV last night beat Sunday’s Game of Thrones and its 2.8 rating–even though that show is available in only 1/3 of US households. NBC:  The one winner, naturally, was THE VOICE, but it...

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

  Broadcast TV barely even had a pulse last night. FOX:  Somebody had to “win,” and that was FOX, with a line-up of animated reruns that gave the network a 1.3 average for the night. NBC:  The night’s o...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/31/13

  A steadily unimpressive night. CBS:  The season finale of MIKE & MOLLY, pushed back because of a tornado storyline, was all but buried among reruns on Thursday night, and it only managed a series-low 1.8, even below...

UPDATED AND CORRECTED: THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/29/13

  First, our abject apologies.  We were working from inaccurate ratings numbers this morning when this was first posted, and consequently our charts were off.  We’ll try to make sure that doesn’t happen again...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/28/13

  Viewers had plenty to choose from in last night’s line-ups–and essentially chose none of it. NBC:  THE VOICE was the highest rated show of the night and it gave NBC the win, but its 3.0 rating marked its 7th...

UPDATED WITH CHARTS: THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/27/13

  Remember when The Voice was a big hit? NBC:  We won’t know until fall if it really means anything–certainly there are fewer people watching TV in general now that the regular season is over–but THE VOI...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/26/13

  There was no curtain call for Smash.   NBC:  SMASH‘s 2-hour exit was an ignominious one.  Although its 0.5 was up 0.1 from its last Saturday airing, it was very nearly the lowest-rated show on a low-rated holida...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/23/13

  Welcome to summer TV.  Collectively, the broadcast networks declined 22% from the same night last year. NBC:  The network can’t get rid of the awful SAVE ME fast enough, as NBC is double-pumping it on Thursdays t...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/22/13

  Last night the May sweep and the broadcast season ended with a whimper.  For the season as a whole, (757 prime time hours in the 34 1/2 weeks between Monday, September 24, 2012 and last night), CBS finished at #1 as exp...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/21/13

  Viewers continued to check out early on the season last night. ABC:  The season finale of DANCING WITH THE STARS was up a big 0.8 from last week to 2.6–but that was also down a big 0.7 from last season’s fin...

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/20/13

  Viewers have started to exit the season before it’s even ended, as neither premieres nor finales excited anyone last night. NBC:  THE VOICE, as usual, won the night for NBC, but with its lowest-rated Monday episod...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/19/13

Live awards shows have been surging in the DVR age, and last night it happened again. ABC:  The BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS blew away the competition with a 3.6 (peaking at 3.9 in the 9-9:30PM half-hour), the show’s highest r...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/17/13

  Only one show last night topped a 1.5 rating. ABC:  An 8PM SHARK TANK only managed a 1.2, but the 9PM season finale zoomed up to a 1.9, easily the highest-rated show of the night (but down a tick from last week).  2d h...

UPDATED: THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/16/13

  Last night’s festival of season/series finales was also a riot of off-hour running times, and there will be more than the usual number of afternoon adjustments once final numbers are on.  The analysis below featur...
