THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/18/13

  Here’s something you don’t see every day:  the highest rated broadcast network among 18-49s last night was… Univision.  All the English-language networks (every one of which featured at least some ori...

THE SKED: Monday Ratings – Network Scorecard – 10/17/11

> Comparisons to last Monday may be misleading, since due to baseball overrun that night, many shows aired either out of their normal timeslots or against atypical competition. FOX:  TERRA NOVA, for example, didn’t b...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/28/12

Post-Sweeps malaise. NBC:  Cleveland must be feeling pretty good about its preemptions last night, as the 9-11PM regular network schedule averaged under a 1.0 rating, with 0.9s for a new 1600 PENN and rerun SVU, and a 1.0 for ...

THE SKED’S NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/7/12

It’s good to be one week after Halloween, as week-to-week comparisons in most cases look unusually good after last week’s low holiday numbers.  The exception is wherever The Voice comes into play. ABC:  Everything...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/4/12

Apparently ABC viewers are unimpressed by superheroes. ABC:  On a night when the other networks were mostly down (were viewers at the multiplex to see the near-record Avengers opening?), all of ABC’s shows were up, and t...

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’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/10/13

The Grammys were big–but not as big as last year’s. CBS:  The 2013 GRAMMY AWARDS had a 10.1 rating, completely dominating the night.  However, that was steeply down from last year’s 14.1 (which may have been...

UPDATED: THE SKED NETWORK/CABLE SCORECARD – 10/23/13

  AFTERNOON UPDATE:  WORLD SERIES GAME 1 ended up adjusted to 4.2, a bit below where we anticipated but still 0.6 above last year’s Game 1.  Nothing else moved more than 0.1 from the morning numbers, but it’s...

THE SKED: Friday Ratings – Network Scorecard – 9/30/11

> It being a Friday, not a single show on network television could even manage a 2 rating in 18-49s.  Even within that narrow radius, though, there was room to be a loser. CBS:  A GIFTED MAN (see our Pilot + 1 Review)...

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/1/13

NBC hopes last night’s Revolution rating was an April Fool’s joke. Last night’s ratings compared to the comparable night last year, in this case March 26 instead of April 2 because the NCAA Champsionship was p...

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

> Sweeps! FOX:  AMERICAN IDOL was steady with last Thursday at 5.4, which meant it was again down around 30% from last year and again saw its first half-hour lose to CBS’s Big Bang Theory.  THE FINDER, airing ag...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/27/12

> FRINGE ties for its network lead on the night!  (Don’t read the fine print.) FOX:  The newly-renewed FRINGE went up an essentially meaningless 0.1 to 1.1.  Since THE FINDER (facing original competition on...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/8/12

Another night with nothing on network television even scoring a 2 rating.  It’s a virtual guarantee that True Blood, airing in 25% of US homes, will top everything on broadcast television for the evening. ABC:  The netw...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 8/28/13

  Summer Wednesdays approach their end pretty much in place. NBC:  AMERICA’S GOT TALENT was up a tick from last week’s low to 2.2 (the 8PM clip show stayed at 1.3).  CAMP is currently even with last week̵...
