The 9th weekend of 2013 looks like a problem: $96 million for the top 12 films Friday-Sunday, down 37% from the same weekend last year. One movie should open decently, while all the holdovers are wilting. The last six weeks are down 21% from the same period last year and down 20% from the average […]
NETWORK UPDATE: The only shifts came at 10PM, where THE NIGHT SHIFT lost 0.1 and CELEBRITY WIFE SWAP gained the same amount. That made the margin between them a bit closer, but an 0.4 win for NIGHT SHIFT is plenty good enough. TUESDAY CABLE: As detailed in today’s WORLD CUP SKEDBALL, the US vs. […]
AFTERNOON UPDATE: With the NFL game factored out, the entire NBC line-up fell. THE VOICE dropped 0.2 to 2.5, SEAN SAVES THE WORLD by 0.3 to 1.4, and THE MICHAEL J. FOX SHOW by 0.3 to a dire 1.0. PARENTHOOD fell 0.2 to 1.3. Meanwhile, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES rose 0.1 to a sterling 1.3 (but […]

ABC: ONCE UPON A TIME rebounded to 3.0, up 0.3 from its last episode, which aired against an NFL overtime game (ABC’s primetime line-up was preempted last week for the American Music Awards). But a flashback episode of REVENGE fell to a new low […]
