THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/13/13

  This was the first Wednesday in a while not to feature special circumstances (World Series games, the CMAs), and things returned pretty much to normal. ABC:  All the network’s shows were within 0.1 of their last regul...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/8/13

  NBC’s undead are starting to look like corpses. NBC:  Just 3 weeks into its season, GRIMM is down to 1.3, already as low as the show scored all last spring.  That’s down half a point from its season debut 2...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/6/13

Last night’s CMA Awards were a huge hit for ABC, but because the last two Wednesdays featured World Series games, the other networks (except for FOX, of course) were already down–the better comparison is to three we...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/24/13

  NBC:  The regular Friday line-up got off to a solid start.  GRIMM, at 1.8, was just about where the show had been last spring (and up 0.2 from last season’s finale).  The better news was that DRACULA looks to be...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/18/13

  Whatever Undercover Boss did last night, it should do that again. CBS:  On a mostly quiet network night, UNDERCOVER BOSS zoomed by half a ratings point to 1.8–not quite the biggest show of the evening, but close.�...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/11/13

  A few Thursday footnotes before the dreary Friday numbers.  NBC, with a 1.1 primetime average, not only tied its all-time in-season low for a Thursday without reruns, it was in 7th place among all networks, behind not j...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/4/13

  ABC:  LAST MAN STANDING rose 0.2 from last week to 1.4, enough to tie it for 1st place in the timeslot on a sleepy Friday night.  But THE NEIGHBORS is probably just playing out its string, with no bump from last week&#...

THE SKED Network Ratings Scorecard – 9/27/13

  Nothing hit a 2 rating on the first Friday of the new season. CBS:  HAWAII 5-0 had an underwhelming Friday debut with 1.5, down 0.3 from last year’s Monday start.  It was even with the premiere of UNDERCOVER BOSS...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 9/20/13

  Friday wasn’t a friendly neighborhood for ABC’s new arrival. ABC:  THE NEIGHBORS arrived on Fridays with a 1.2 thud, down from all its Wednesday numbers and also down 0.3 from its LAST MAN STANDING lead-in.�...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/24/13

  The night before Sweeps was a dim one. FOX:  AMERICAN IDOL lost 0.2, for a 3.2 that was 0.1 above its series low and just half a point above Survivor. ABC:  HOW TO LIVE WITH YOUR PARENTS (FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE) sur...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/17/13

Two ABC sitcoms aired without their usual lead-ins, with mixed results. ABC:  The season finale of SUBURGATORY had to be a self-starter last night, airing as a one-hour without either Modern Family or The Middle as a lead-i...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/10/13

  Has American Idol finally leveled out? FOX:  After 3 weeks of consecutive drops that brought the show down 0.7 from a month ago, AMERICAN IDOL was up a tick last night to 3.2.  That’s still a full point below its...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/3/13

  A solid start for ABC’s new sitcom. ABC:  The night’s new configuration worked out well, at least for now.  THE MIDDLE was up 0.2 to 2.0 (still 15% below its season average), while SUBURGATORY, although sli...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/22/13

The last Friday of February sweeps was dull for every network. CBS:  After the failure of The Job, CBS rushed UNDERCOVER BOSS back into its 8PM slot, and although Boss outperformed the deceased show, its 1.5 was 0.4 lower tha...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/15/13

No one found a Week 2 bounce. FOX:  The season’s second episode of TOUCH fared even worse than last week’s season premiere, dropping 0.2 to a 0.7 that makes Fringe seem high-rated in comparison.  Touch couldn̵...
