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 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,...

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 NETWORK SCORECARD – 9/19/13

  FOX’s X Factor problem is becoming a crisis. FOX:  THE X FACTOR fell another 0.3 from last week’s lackluster premiere to a series-low 1.9–and that’s before the regular season competition has even...

THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 9/18/13

  The rollout of pre-premiere week arrivals continued. CBS:  The fall premiere of SURVIVOR was a heavy 0.6 below last September’s debut, 2.6 compared to 3.2.  However, on the glass half-full side, it was 0.2 abov...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/19/12

  Chicago Fire, not for the first time, responds well when it doesn’t face off directly with CSI. NBC:  After the MISS UNIVERSE PAGEANT‘s 1.8 (up slightly from last year), CHICAGO FIRE hit a 1.9, up half a ...

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 WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/12/12

…and this is why NBC won’t be running Revolution without a Voice lead-in anytime soon. NBC:  TAKE IT ALL, airing for the first time without the comfort of that Voice audience, collapsed by more than a ratings point...

THE SKED THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/6/12

Scandal shows some heat. ABC:  A dynamite episode of SCANDAL (written by creator Shonda Rhimes) that managed to propel the story both backwards and forwards via flashbacks and a startling episode-ending revelation had by far i...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/5/12

Thanks to Nielsen delays, Chicago Fire had to wait to get some unaccustomed good news. NBC:  CHICAGO FIRE benefits by not airing against a new CSI on CBS, because their audiences, while overlapping, prefer the latter when they...

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...

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’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...
