THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/12/13

  A tough start to Upfronts week for the networks. ABC:  The season finale of ONCE UPON A TIME was down an ugly 1.1 from last year’s finale, leaving it with a 2.2 that was flat with last week.  Even worse was the 2...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/10/13

  Last night was Battle of the Canceled Shows. CBS:  Even though UNDERCOVER BOSS was up a robust 0.4 to 1.6 as a lead-in, the last episode of VEGAS only managed to hold even at 0.9.  The season finale of BLUE BLOODS was ...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/9/13

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/7/13

  Apart from a few marginal increases, it was another dull night of May sweeps for the networks. NBC:  A 3.6 rating is obviously nothing for a network to complain about.  But last night’s THE VOICE was nevertheles...

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/6/13

  A bit of a bump for Revolution, but not much more good news for the networks last night. CBS:  The upcoming season finale for HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER seems to be exciting no one, as the show hit a season low 2.6, while RU...

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

  A NASCAR overrun may have been the highest-rated show of the night. ABC:  ONCE UPON A TIME rose 0.2 from last week to 2.2, but it’s still hovering half a point below its season average.  REVENGE edged up 0.1 to 1...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/3/13

  The absence of Grimm didn’t help its competition. ABC:  The network swan song of HAPPY ENDINGS was technically up, but when you’re comparing 0.8/0.7 to 0.6/0.6, it doesn’t matter much.  SHARK TANK wa...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/2/13

  The absence of the NFL Draft didn’t help all that much. FOX:  The losses keep accumulating for AMERICAN IDOL, which last night had its lowest-ever regular episode at 2.5, down 0.3 from last week, and equal to the ...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/1/13

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/30/13

  NBC shook things up last night, to mixed effect. NBC:  A 2-hour THE VOICE hurt the 9PM competition, but resulted in a 3.7 for itself, the lowest Voice rating in weeks (down 0.4 from last Tuesday).  Putting GRIMM at 1...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/28/13

  May Sweeps continued to excite hardly anyone. ABC:  The network aired its regular line-up for the first time in a month, and it did no good for ONCE UPON A TIME, which slipped 0.1 from last week and fell to a series low...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/16/13

  Another dim night for most of the networks. NBC:  Last night marked the season’s final Friday airing of GRIMM before it moves to Tuesdays, and its send-off was unpromising, a 1.3 that was down 0.2 from its last ne...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/25/13

  So much for the excitement of May Sweeps.  The NFL Draft on ESPN may not have helped, but an alarming number of network shows last night hit season and even all-time series lows. FOX:  Oh, how AMERICAN IDOL‘s for...
