Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Animation, Drama, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Specials, Talk Shows, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, House, Medium, Ratings
Would ABC be smart to air cartoons every Friday night? The weekend’s broadcast of Shrek the Third helped give the network a rare tie in the 18-49s. CBS, though, was still a solo winner with the viewers.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (8.4 million, 2.0/7 in 18-49) raised another 400,000.
- Law & Order (7.5 million, 1.5/5) remained steady.
- Shrek the Third (1.9/6) attracted 6.3 million to ABC.
- House* (3.3 million, 1.0/4) fell by 200,000.
- Smallville (2.5 million, 1.1/4) also lost 200,000.

An evening without a Rihanna-esque interview is just your typical boring Friday night. CBS’ lineup easily held off its contenders to win both the viewers and the demos.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Talk Shows, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America's Next Top Model, House, Medium, Ratings
Every once in a while a move to Fridays isn’t such a bad thing. Although some shows have been known to fade away, CW’s Smallville actually hit a season high with the 18-49s this weekend. That performance, of course, didn’t keep CBS from winning in both the viewers and the demos.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (8.3 million, 2.0/7 in 18-49) was down by 200,000.

Friday Ratings: Weak Return for Dollhouse
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Talk Shows, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America's Next Top Model, Medium, Ratings
Attention Dollhouse producers - get Summer Glau on quick! Had I not known that Dollhouse premiered last Friday, I would have assumed by the program’s numbers that it was still in repeats. Unfortunately, the Joss Whedon-created series made its return with the lowest demos for any original that evening. (It’s lead-in - Brothers—didn’t fare much better.) To make matters worse, the FOX drama also pulled in smaller numbers than several repeats.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (8.6 million, 2.2/8 in 18-49) was down 700,000 from last fall.
- Law & Order (1.3/5) kicked off its 20th season with 6.3 million.
- A FlashForward* repeat (1.5/5) had 4.6 million blacking out.
- Brothers (1.0/4) kept 2.8 million amused.
- Smallville (1.0/4) debuted to 2.5 million.

Friday Ratings: NBC Makes a Week End Mark
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Comedy, Drama, Games, Kids, Music, Sci-Fi/Horror, Talk Shows, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Medium, Ratings
Up until now, CBS has traditionally dominated Friday nights with its Ghost Whisperer/Numb3rs combo. But could Jay Leno potentially change that? Although we’re still a week away from finding out, the program got off to a nice start this weekend. Primetime’s new 10:00 show helped give NBC a win in both the viewers and the demos.
8pm
- Dateline NBC (2.0/7 in 18-49) averaged 7.4 million over two hours.
- Approximately 5 million watched the finale of Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (1.0/4).
- Ghost Whisperer* (1.1/4) pulled in 4.6 million.
- The 2009 Alma Awards (0.6/2) attracted 2.2 million.
- Smallville* (0.6/2) dialed up 1.6 million.
