Did you see the moment when Sugar ran topless down the beach on Survivor? If you didn’t, you were one of the few. The two-hour premiere of the Heroes vs. Villains edition attracted 14.1 million fans and helped put a ding into Grey’s Anatomy‘s numbers.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, 30 Rock, Grey's Anatomy, Survivor, The Office, Ratings
FOX’s ride to the top ended quickly. When originals returned to ABC and CBS, so did the numbers. Last night, the Alphabet network - with no help from The Deep End - narrowly took first in the demos. Meanwhile, CBS was easily the winner with the viewers.
8pm
- Bones (12.3 million, 3.3/10 in 18-49) did about the same.
- CBS’ Survivor Survivor special (2.4/7) had 8.3 million looking back.
- Community (2.2/7) entertained 5.2 million.

Thursday Ratings: Live for the Moment DOA
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Specials, Talk Shows, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, 30 Rock, Grey's Anatomy, The Office, Ratings
Jeff Probst had to learn a very hard lesson last night: Fans simply don’t like to watch him in shows that aren’t titled Survivor. Last night’s Live for the Moment special got beat by everything in the demos…even repeats. Meanwhile, FOX - just about the only network to air originals - easily won in the viewers and the 18-49s.
8pm
- Bones (12.4, 3.6/11 in 18-49) had the night’s best numbers.
- The Deep End (6 million, 1.7/5) lost 1 million.
- Live for the Moment (1.1/3) scraped up 4.7 million.
- Community* (4.2 million, 1.6/5) turned in 4.2 million.
- Parks and Recreation* (1.6/4) entertained 3.7 million.
- The Vampire Diaries (3.8 million, 1.8/5) was steady.

Thursday Ratings: Bones Bests CSI, Deep End Sinks
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, Talk Shows, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, 30 Rock, Grey's Anatomy, The Office, Ratings
Last night’s programming ended with interesting results. Despite non-stop promotions, ABC’s freshman series The Deep End struggled to find an audience with the 18-49s during its hour. Meanwhile, CBS had some good and bad news. On the plus side, repeats of The Big Bang Theory did better than original comedies on NBC. On the negative side, Bones actually beat CSI in the demos.
8pm
- Bones (11.9 million, 3.5/10 in 18-49) had its biggest audience in three years.
- The first episode of The Big Bang Theory (2.1/6) pulled in 6.9 million; a second half hour (2.4/7) rose to 7.5 million
- The Deep End (1.8/5) had 7 million testing out the waters.
- Community (4.7 million, 2.1/6) gave up 700,000.
- Parks and Recreation (4.3 million, 2.0/5) was down 300,000.
- The Vampire Diaries (1.6/4) returned to 3.7 million.
