THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/2/12

> The lows keep coming. ABC:  MODERN FAMILY, THE MIDDLE, SUBURGATORY and REVENGE all set or tied season lows last night, and the only reason DON’T TRUST THE B— IN APT 23 didn’t was because it had aired th...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 3/28/12

> NBC’s sitcoms don’t get a fond farewell. NBC:  How bad was the network’s night?  Its highest rating was a 1.5 for the season finale of WHITNEY.  About the best you could say about that number ...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/23/11

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/29/12

> February Sweeps go out not with a bang, but with the other thing. ABC:  The first “midseason arc” episode of REVENGE looked almost exactly like all the other episodes, so it was fitting that the rating stayed...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/9/12

      Sometimes a win can also be a disappointment. FOX:  AMERICAN IDOL was the highest rated show on the air last night, and gave FOX the nightly win.  But… its 4.4 was a series Wednesday low, down 0.3 f...

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 3/5/12

> SMASHWatch is grinning this morning, but should it be? NBC:  Airing against repeats on both of the other networks, SMASH was up a big 0.4 to 2.7, a healthy number for any 10PM drama these days.  So… yay? ...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 3/14/12

> Look away. FOX:  The only network with anything to boast about, and even that has a couple of asterisks.  AMERICAN IDOL will probably edge out The Voice for bragging rights to the week once final numbers are in (rig...

THE SKED WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD

    The calendar may say it’s too early for the dog days of summer, but they’ve arrived at CBS.   CBS:  DOGS IN THE CITY fell sharply from its low debut to an awful 0.9, below most of the reruns on N...

THE SKED: Week 2 + 1 – CW Network Scorecard

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/5/12

It’s getting to be time for the season’s first cancellation. CBS:  MADE IN JERSEY plummeted to 0.8, below even (gulp!) Fringe, and can’t be long for this world.  It probably didn’t have much effect on ...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/9/11
