THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/17/13

CBS does FOX a favor. FOX:  With CBS in reruns last night, AMERICAN IDOL didn’t have to face fresh episodes of Big Bang Theory or 2 1/2 Men.  That allowed Idol to tie last year’s 5.6 Thursday premiere (which had t...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/13/12

Another Thursday where football simulcasts could affect ratings on 2 networks.  For now, at least, Scandal is having a moment. ABC:  The midseason finale of SCANDAL, pre-football adjustment in Philadelphia, is at what would b...

THE SKED’S THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/4/12

30 Rock sinks like a stone. NBC:  Yes, things could get worse for NBC’s Thursday.  30 ROCK, making its final season debut, kicked off with a dreadful 1.3, down in every measurable respect (last season’s premiere, ...

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