THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 6/1/12

  Best Friends not forever. NBC:  The burn-off of the final episodes of BEST FRIENDS FOREVER was ugly, as they scored a CW-level 0.6.  DATELINE more than doubled that with a 1.4, winning the 9PM hour and a close 2d place...

THE SKED TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/29/12

    The real question is whether Hatfields & McCoys outrated all the networks again. NBC:  AMERICA’S GOT TALENT is so far the dominant network show of the early summer, its 3.7 more than doubling every othe...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 8/4/13

  There’s everything else on television… and then there’s NFL football. NBC:  The preseason exhibition HALL OF FAME GAME is about as meaningless as any “NFL” game can be, but nonetheless it w...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/2/13

  Essentially, right now you could air a reading of the US budget after The Voice and do some kind of number. NBC:  THE VOICE continued on its merry way, up 0.2 from last Tuesday’s installment to 4.3.  The first ha...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/17/12

> The FOX Tuesday line-up returned to moderate results. FOX:  The network won the night, but unimpressively:  GLEE tied the season low it hit during the holiday season, and NEW GIRL was only 0.1 above its own. CBS:&nb...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/31/12

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/11/13

  A small but good sign for NBC. NBC:  THE BLACKLIST was only up 0.1 last night to 3.0–and even that might not hold in final numbers, since it started at 10:01PM–but the highly-promoted episode, which featured a B...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 3/31/13

  Considering all that was happening on cable last night, it’s not much of a surprise that hardly anyone showed up at the networks. ABC:  The network started the night with a ONCE UPON A TIME rerun, and its dismal 0...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/11/12

> AKA the season’s final pre-American Idol Wednesday. NBC:   In the absence of the 600-pound gorilla that’s arriving in a week, the new 8-9PM hour did respectably.  WHITNEY‘s 2.1 was slightly hi...

THE SKED MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 6/18/12

It turned out CBS didn’t even need to throw stones. ABC:  GLASS HOUSE finally premiered, and maybe the network should have broadcast the litigation papers instead.  The show’s 1.6 barely beat the sitcom reruns on ...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 6/4/13

  Talent competition shows continued to dominate network television. NBC:  After THE VOICE‘s new Tuesday low 3.0 (down 0.2 from last week), AMERICA’S GOT TALENT premiered with a 3.1 rating from 9-11 pm (3.0, 3...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/2/12

Something finally goes right for ABC this fall. ABC:  This was what the network had in mind when it announced its Friday schedule.  LAST MAN STANDING debuted to a 1.9, above the mid-1 numbers it was doing on higher-viewing Tu...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 7/2/13

  As people began to find other ways to spend their holiday week, it was a lousy night for network television. NBC:  AMERICA’S GOT TALENT was the highest-rated show of the night with a 2.3 and gave NBC the win, but ...
