THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/21/13

Not the kind of history the major networks like to set. CW:  Last night may have been the first time a CW series beat not one, but two of the big networks, as THE VAMPIRE DIARIES climbed an impressive 0.3 to 1.3 and NBC and AB...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/20/13

Another night with little for the networks to cheer about. ABC:  The first 90 minutes of the night provided some good news, as THE MIDDLE rebounded a bit from last week’s low to 2.2 (up 0.3), THE NEIGHBORS was up 0.2 to ...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/19/13

No good news for anyone last night. ABC:  It was never clear why ABC renewed BODY OF PROOF, which had marginal ratings last season (reportedly foreign sales played a part, as the network’s in-house studio produces the sh...

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/18/13

A good night for those seeking true love and serial killings. FOX:  A big sigh of relief was breathed at FOX as THE FOLLOWING bounced back to 2.8, up 0.4 from last week (and the episode ended with a cliffhanger that should kee...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/15/13

No one found a Week 2 bounce. FOX:  The season’s second episode of TOUCH fared even worse than last week’s season premiere, dropping 0.2 to a 0.7 that makes Fringe seem high-rated in comparison.  Touch couldn̵...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/13/13

A bad night for most. CBS:  SURVIVOR returned from its hiatus with its lowest cycle premiere ever, a 2.4 that was down 0.7 from last Spring’s start.  The show ran 90 minutes, and CBS filled in the gap with a 1.6 BIG BAN...

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD 2/11/13

The Following is losing its own. FOX:  After two strong weeks to start, THE FOLLOWING had its second consecutive ratings drop, this time falling a serious 0.5 to an only moderately positive 2.4, just good enough for 3rd place ...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/10/13

The Grammys were big–but not as big as last year’s. CBS:  The 2013 GRAMMY AWARDS had a 10.1 rating, completely dominating the night.  However, that was steeply down from last year’s 14.1 (which may have been...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/8/13

A bad night for debuts. FOX:  No one showed up for the return of TOUCH, which started with a weak 1.1 in its first hour and fell to an even worse 0.9 in its second.  Unless things turn around quickly (unlikely, with Grimm on...

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

Compared to the return of Smash, the season premiere of Community looked like–well, a smash. NBC:  Were they just curiosity-seekers, intrigued by the show’s overhaul, or fans who will stick around?  We’ll fi...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/20/13

Tangle with football at your peril. ABC:  For reasons best known to itself, ABC decided to do battle with the AFC Championship Game on CBS.  The results were, not surprisingly, bad:  ONCE UPON A TIME and REVENGE both hit sea...

THE SKED’S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/18/13

Fringe moves on to another universe. FOX:  After years of lousy ratings, it would have been unrealistic to expect FRINGE to suddenly grow an audience at the last minute, and it didn’t:  the two-hour finale had a 1.0, wh...

THE SKED’S TUESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/15/13

No major movements on the night as we await some finales and arrivals over the next few weeks. NBC:  PARENTHOOD, the Rodney Dangerfield of network television, won its hour with a steady 1.9, and was the network’s highest...

THE SKED’S MONDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/14/13

Not a good night for newcomers. NBC:  Even though THE BIGGEST LOSER was steady from last week at 2.4, DECEPTION fell a heavy 0.4 to a third-place 1.6 in its hour.  Worse yet, it slid during the course of the broadcast, with a...

THE SKED’S SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/13/13

Ricky who? NBC:  Separately, Amy Poehler and Tina Fey are stars of ratings-challenged (although beloved by fans) sitcoms.  Together, though, they’re a powerhouse hosting duo, and between the two of them, some wild surpr...
