Despite being sandwiched in between Friday night’s best shows, CBS’ The Ex List continues to slide in the ratings. Nevertheless, the network still manages to dominate the week-end numbers.

Friday Ratings: So-So Debut for Crusoe
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Games, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America's Next Top Model, Everybody Hates Chris, Ratings
You gotta give NBC a hand for at least trying something different. Although it did better than last week’s episode of America’s Toughest Jobs, the network’s two-hour debut of Crusoe was third in its hour with the demos. Friday night, once again, totally belonged to CBS.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (8.9 million, 2.5/9 in 18-49) was off by a 1/2 million.
- Crusoe (1.6/5) debuted to 7.3 million.
- The first hour of Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?* (5.1 million, 1.4/5) lost 700,000.
- Wife Swap (4.5 million, 1.7/6) picked up 200,000.
- Everybody Hates Chris (1.8 million, 0.7/3) did the same as last week; The Game (1.8 million, 0.8/3) was down a notch.

Despite low premiere numbers last Friday, ABC’s lineup picked up a little steam this week. This improvement, however, was not enough to take down CBS’ strong staples.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (9.4 million, 2.6/9 in 18-49) was up slightly.
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (5.8 million, 1.4/5) did the same as last week.
- Wife Swap (4.3 million, 1.5/6) improved by 1/2 million.
- America’s Toughest Jobs (4 million, 1.2/4) picked up another 600,000.
- Everybody Hates Chris (1.8 million, 0.7/3) slipped by 300,000; The Game (1.9 million, 0.8/3) remained steady.

Friday Ratings: Ex List is No Moonlight
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Games, Kids, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America's Next Top Model, Ratings
Last Friday, number crunchers had their eyes on two events: the debut of The Ex List and the departure of Friday Night Smackdown. Unfortunately for CBS and CW, the news wasn’t good. Despite CBS’ win in both the demos and viewers, Moonlight started and ended better than Ex‘s premiere. Meanwhile, CW’s comedic lineup only did 1/2 as well as the network’s old wrestling staple.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (9.3 million. 2.4/6 in 18-49) rounded up 7% more than last year.
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (5.8 million, 1.3/5) added on 700,000.
- Wife Swap‘s new time slot only drew in 3.8 million (1.3/5).
- America’s Toughest Jobs (3.4 million, 1.0/3) lost 1.2 million.
- Everybody Hates Chris (2.1 million, 0.8/3) and The Game (1.9 million, 0.8/3) were down over 2 million from last week’s Smackdown.
