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

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/9/12

Not so Amazing. CBS:  The cycle finale of THE AMAZING RACE tied its all-time finale low at 2.6, down more than a ratings point from last fall’s finale.  Instead of Race boosting THE MENTALIST at 10PM, that show was down...

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

A newsmagazine took the crown on a mostly down night. NBC:  There must have been some reason why DATELINE zoomed 0.6 from last week, increasing its rating by more than 50% and topping the night with a 1.7.  Whatever it was, t...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/2/12

ABC’s Fall Finale Sunday was a moderate success. ABC:  ONCE UPON A TIME could only hold even at 3.1 for its last episode of 2012.  REVENGE climbed 0.2 to 2.4, but that didn’t put it far above last week’s sea...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/30/12

Good news for ABC’s sitcoms. ABC:  LAST MAN STANDING and MALIBU COUNTRY, newly gifted with 5-episode backorders, justified their continued life by rising to 1.6/1.5, a tick or two up from recent weeks.  A rerun SHARK TA...
