Friday Ratings: CBS and ABC Split Lackluster Evening
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Games, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Sports, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Ratings
This past Friday, the networks didn’t give the viewers much to choose from. (That will, thankfully, change in just a few short weeks.) The tight race ended with an ABC win in the demos and a CBS victory with the viewers.
8pm
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (5.9 million, 1.3/5 in 18-49) plummeted by 1 million.
- America’s Funniest Home Videos* (1.5/6) averaged 5.5 million over two hours.
- Ghost Whisperer* (5.3 million, 1.4/5) shed 400,000.
- Friday Night Smackdown (4.4 million, 1.4/5) was up by 200,000.
- America’s Toughest Jobs (3.3 million, 1.1/4) did about the same as last week.

Without a doubt, Charlie Gibson’s exclusive interview with Sarah Palin was the most-watched event on Friday night. Unfortunately, the ALMA Awards wasn’t. That ratings combination allowed FOX to take a win in both categories this weekend.
8pm
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (6.9 million, 1.8/6 in 18-49) slipped by 700,000.
- Ghost Whisperer* (1.5/5) scared up 5.7 million.
- Friday Night Smackdown (4.2 million, 1.3/4) let 500,000 get away.
- The 2008 ALMA Awards (1.0/3) turned in 3.8 million.
- America’s Toughest Jobs (1.1/4) looked weak with 3.4 million.

Despite being a star-studded, newsworthy event, the Stand Up 2 Cancer special wound up falling behind an episode of Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?. Thanks to split coverage between ABC, NBC and CBS, FOX was easily Friday night’s winner in both categories.
8pm
- The debut of Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (2.0/7 in 18-49) scored 7.6 million.

Even though the ceremony (barely) won its hour, the 35th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards couldn’t muster enough primetime attention to topple a list of repeats. CBS wound up winning the viewers and ended up in a four-way tie in the demos.
