Olympics minus 1. ABC:  Possibly in the belief that its activities qualified for Olympic medals, viewers thronged to WIPEOUT, giving it a 2.2 that was up 0.5 from last week.  ROOKIE BLUE was also up a bit to 1.5, winning its ...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/19/12

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 8/27/12

Nobody is earning any stripes at NBC. NBC:  STARS EARN STRIPES is now a full-fledged disaster, falling to 0.9 in its 3rd week.  GRIMM fell a bit as well to 1.6 against reruns, which isn’t much better than the show had b...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 8/28/12

THE SKED WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/4/12

  The bombs burst in midair for NBC on July 4th. NBC:  There are fireworks, and then there is the MACY’S 4TH OF JULY SPECTACULAR, by far the highest rated show of the night with a 1.7 (although that was down from 2....

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/23/12

The kitchen outrated the boudoir. ABC:  BACHELOR PAD wasn’t able to capitalize on the strong ratings for Sunday’s Bachelorette finale, premiering with a 1.4 that was way below last year’s 2.2 start.  That di...

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 ...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/20/12

A night, sadly, for news shows. NBC:  We don’t know at this time what the ratings have been for the 24-hour cable news networks that have been covering the Aurora shootings non-stop since Thursday night.  Friday evening...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 8/30/12

The Republican miniseries ends.  Also, last night’s preliminary numbers are more preliminary than usual, because preseason NFL football made for lots of local preemptions. NBC:  An odd evening.  Again, numbers may be s...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 8/26/12

Even exhibition football is football. NBC:  NFL PRESEASON FOOTBALL took the night with a 2.9, which is just a taste of what the numbers will be in a few weeks when the real thing returns.  Even a MADDEN NFL pre-show came in 2...

THE SKED FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/13/12

  Step up, one and all, for the death-defying showdown of… 2 newsmagazines? ABC:  On another deadly summer Friday, 20/20 beat Dateline with a 1.3 as the only original programming aired by any broadcast network for t...

THE SKED SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/15/12

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/25/12

The numbers weren’t worth waiting for. NBC:  The only show on network television last night to score over a 2 in the 18-49 demo was AMERICA’S GOT TALENT, airing its pre-Olympics finale and earning a 2.2.  The nigh...
