THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 9/20/12

For NBC, the preseason was nice while it lasted. NBC:  The network launched its Thursday line-up last night against little or no competition from 2 of the other networks…. and fell off a cliff.  THE OFFICE, the last rem...

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’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/21/12

On the network’s menus for Thanksgiving Eve:  heaping platters of series lows.  (It should probably be noted that the reason it made sense for 3 networks to air new episodes last night, despite the anticipated lack of a...

THE SKED NETWORK RATINGS SCORECARD – 9/25/13

  After the excitement of the past two days, with the arrivals of The Blacklist and Agents of SHIELD, last night’s numbers were on the dull side. ABC:  Even though ABC won the night, there was no good news in the line-u...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 9/26/12

So much for the monkey. NBC:  ANIMAL PRACTICE lurched into the regular season with an awful 1.4 start, the lowest rated show in primetime (other than on CW) last night.  GUYS WITH KIDS did marginally better at 1.6, but that w...

UPDATED: THE SKED NETWORK/CABLE SCORECARD – 11/20/13

  AFTERNOON UPDATE:  Little change from this morning, with 0.1 rises for THE X FACTOR, MODERN FAMILY (still down 0.4 for the night), SURVIVOR, THE MIDDLE and ARROW (still down 0.2).  There was no gain for REVOLUTION.  SUPER...

THE SKED’S THANKSGIVING NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/22/12

Only one network aired its regular line-up on Thanksgiving night… and it probably should have thought twice. FOX:  The Washington/Dallas NFL game ran about 20 minutes into primetime, meaning that the network’s numb...

THE SKED NETWORK RATINGS SCORECARD – 9/26/13

  Another NBC vs CBS showdown–but this one goes the other way. CBS:  Two-thirds of a remarkable night.  The back-to-back episodes of THE BIG BANG THEORY that served as its Season 7 premiere were spectacular at 5.3/5.8,...

UPDATED: THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 9/27/12

[UPDATE:  As expected, the post-football numbers for NBC left its shows with ratings virtually identical to last week’s.  Optimists might say that’s an accomplishment with this week’s much stronger competiti...

UPDATED: THE SKED NETWORK/CABLE SCORECARD – 11/21/13

  AFTERNOON UPDATE:  As expected, post-football adjustment wiped out the 0.2 improvements for REIGN and GLEE.  However, THE X FACTOR only lost 0.1 of its 0.3 gain, sticking at 1.5, and THE VAMPIRE DIARIES stayed at 1.3.�...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/28/12

A strong week for network television continues. ABC:  A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS, from way back in 1965, was up a bit from last year to 2.8, enough to tie for the lead in its hour.  That helped the 9PM hour, where MODERN FAMIL...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/2/13

  Another false positive? ABC:  SUPER FUN NIGHT started strong last night, holding onto 75% of its MODERN FAMILY lead-in for a 3.2 rating.  However, that’s the same number The Neighbors did in its debut last year–...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/3/12

Primetime was only an hour long last night (2 for CW), so not much to say.  In preliminary numbers, NBC’s news division won bragging rights to victory in the OBAMA VS. ROMNEY miniseries that took up the rest of the eveni...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/27/13

  The hills were not alive last night. NBC:  The night before Thanksgiving is traditionally an extremely slow one for TV viewing, and networks don’t typically air hour-long infomercials for their own upcoming progra...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/29/12

The week’s good times stop rolling for the networks.  (Note, comparisons are to 2 weeks ago, as shows were either preempted on Thanksgiving night or had atypical numbers.) ABC:  LAST RESORT, now just playing out its str...
