UPDATED: THE SKED NETWORK/CABLE SCORECARD – 11/14/13

  AFTERNOON UPDATE:  With the NFL game calculated out, both NBC and FOX suffered across-the-board declines that neither network–but especially NBC–couldn’t afford.  So there were new series lows for PARKS &...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/13/13

  This was the first Wednesday in a while not to feature special circumstances (World Series games, the CMAs), and things returned pretty much to normal. ABC:  All the network’s shows were within 0.1 of their last regul...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/12/13

  Agents of SHIELD has lost its superpowers. ABC;  One might reasonably have expected AGENTS OF SHIELD to benefit from the arrival of the blockbuster new Thor movie in theatres last weekend (the series is even planning a spin...

UPDATED: THE SKED NETWORK/CABLE SCORECARD – 11/10/13

  TUESDAY UPDATE:  SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL adjusted to a 7.8 rating, a bit lower than we’d estimated.  On CBS, once the football overrun was adjusted out, 60 MINUTES had a 3.1, considerably below our estimate, but th...

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 NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/6/13

Last night’s CMA Awards were a huge hit for ABC, but because the last two Wednesdays featured World Series games, the other networks (except for FOX, of course) were already down–the better comparison is to three we...

UPDATED: THE SKED NETWORK/CABLE SCORECARD – 11/5/13

  AFTERNOON UPDATE:  TROPHY WIFE became even more disastrous in final numbers, falling to a 1.1, which makes it one of the lowest-rated in-season, non-Friday series ever to get a back order.  It’s hard to imagine ABC k...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/3/13

  Did moving The Good Wife and Revenge away from one another for a night help both shows? CBS:  The afternoon NFL overrun pushed the night’s schedule by an entire hour in most of the country, kicking The Mentalist out o...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/29/13

  An atypical night yielded some unusual results. NBC:  Adding a second hour of THE VOICE inevitably boosted the night for NBC, which took Tuesday by half a rating point, a wider margin than last week.  But that Voice episod...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/28/13

  The World Series had surprisingly little meaningful effect on the other networks. FOX:  WORLD SERIES GAME 5 had a preliminary 3.8, which probably won’t go much beyond a 4 in final numbers.  There hasn’t been a ...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/27/13

  For viewers not watching sports or zombies last night–however few of them there were–TV offered a gangbusters episode of The Good Wife and a superb hour from Masters of Sex (although the less said about Homeland,...

UPDATED: THE SKED NETWORK/CABLE SCORECARD – 10/24/13

  AFTERNOON UPDATE:  WORLD SERIES GAME 2 ended up at an adjusted 3.6, just where we expected and slightly above last year’s Game 2.  There weren’t a lot of additional adjustments, but a couple of them were si...

  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...

SKEDBALL: World Series Ratings

The World Series begins tonight at historic Fenway Park, as the St Louis Cardinals take on the Boston Red Sox in a re-match of the 2004 Series.  Ratings for the World Series are very erratic.  Since 2003 (the last 10 Series),...
