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.

- Howie Do It (6.1 million, 2.8/6) was down 21% from last week.

- 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.
