Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Everybody Hates Chris, Ratings,
Although FOX had the perfect opportunity to exploit CBS’ repeat-filled evening, the network came in a disappointing fourth with the viewers. Terminator‘s even performance was unfortunately offset by Dollhouse‘s second week decline.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer* (8.4 million, 1.9/6 in 18-49) had the night’s biggest audience.
- Wife Swap* (4.1 million, 1.4/4) traded in 200,000.

- Everybody Hates Chris (1.4 million, 0.5/2) remained steady; The Game (1.2 million, 0.5/2) was down 300,000.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, Everybody Hates Chris, Ratings,
Back-to-back shows about strong, good-looking women wasn’t quite enough for FOX Friday. Terminator took a major hit in its new time slot while Eliza Dushku was bested by the Supernanny. In other news, Diane Sawyer’s Appalachian Mountains special gave ABC a rare win in the demos, though CBS was still tops with the viewers.

Friday Ratings: Friday Night Lights Scores Higher Than Lipstick Jungle
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Games, Kids, Music, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Everybody Hates Chris, Ratings,
There was a little bit of good news and bad news for NBC this weekend. Although the network saw smaller numbers for Howie Do It‘s second outing, the return of Friday Night Lights did better than the previous time slot holder (Lipstick Jungle). Unfortunately CBS’ dominant lineup made any improvements seem laughable.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (10.5 million, 2.5/8 in18-49) had the night’s best demos.
- Howie Do It (6.1 million, 2.8/6) was down 21% from last week.
- Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader? (1.1/4) registered 5.6 million.
- Wife Swap (4.8 million, 1.7/5) remained steady.
- Everybody Hates Chris (1.6 million, 0.6/2) was up about 200,000; The Game (1.7 million, 0.8/2) added on 300,000.
