THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/8/13

A bad night for debuts. FOX:  No one showed up for the return of TOUCH, which started with a weak 1.1 in its first hour and fell to an even worse 0.9 in its second.  Unless things turn around quickly (unlikely, with Grimm on...

THE SKED FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/1/13

February begins with a night that can’t even find a single 2 rating. CBS:  UNDERCOVER BOSS had one of the two 1.9s of the night, steady with its last airing.  BLUE BLOODS and CSI NY were both at 1.5, which was down slig...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/16/12

Suddenly those ABC sitcoms aren’t such sure things. ABC:  For the third consecutive week, LAST MAN STANDING and MALIBU COUNTRY fell, to 1.4 and 1.3 respectively.  That’s particularly worrisome for Malibu, which dr...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/9/12

That didn’t take long. ABC:  At twin 1.6s, LAST MAN STANDING and MALIBU COUNTRY are still “hits” by Friday standards.  (Just ask NBC, which has been calling Grimm a hit for a year and a half with ratings at ...
