Nielsen Ratings May 10, 2008: More Love NASCAR Than Lebron

Sunday, May 11th, 2008

[table=1269] Happy Mother's Day to all you moms!  About the only good news I can give you as far as this overnight recap goes is thank goodness there will be some better TV on tonight! NASCAR did outshine the NBA.  But then again, a rerun of CSI: Miami may well have ...

Nielsen Ratings Friday May 9: CBS Wins, Moonlight Still on the Bubble

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

[table=1267]CBS won another May sweeps Friday night, but you know when the CW is consistently beating FOX on a Friday night, that it's a night the networks hardly care about.  It will be very, very interesting to see how the CW programs Friday nights in the fall when it will ...

Nielsen Ratings May 8, 2008: Trouble in Shonda-land?

Friday, May 9th, 2008

[table=1265] As is typical for primetime Thursdays,  it's mixed leadership between the Tiffanys and the Mouse with CBS having the most viewers and ABC winning the 18-49 demographic, though only barely due to the "there's no Lindsay Lohan yet" 18-49 performance of Ugly Betty.  ABC is dominant in the 9pm ...

Nielsen Ratings May 6: FOX and Idol Take a Hit, But Still Win

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

[table=1259]FOX was noticeably off of the week ago Tuesday performance, let alone last year's numbers.  Still, it was enough to win the night for FOX as American Idol once again dominated.  Hell's Kitchen again won the 18-49 demographic in the 9pm hour, and although it too was off versus last ...

Nielsen Ratings May 5, 2008: Youth Still Loves FOX’s House Best

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

[table=1253]Any day that ends in a "Y" is a good day to for Univision's Fuego En La Sangre to put the beatdown on Gossip Girl.  Gossip  Girl pulled but 2.11 million and a 1.0/3 in the 18-49 demo.  I haven't seen Fuego's numbers yet but I've seen GG's and they stink. ...

Nielsen Ratings Sun May 4: ABC Wins As Housewives Crush Field

Monday, May 5th, 2008

[table=1250] Desperate Housewives' overnight numbers were even better than last week's overnight numbers (can you feel the love, DH fans?) and ABC won the night again in both total viewers and the 18-49 demo, which was up a couple of ticks from last week for ABC as well. The order of ...

Nielsen Ratings Sat, May 3, 2008: NASCAR Nation!

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

[table=1248]Trying to make the Saturday night reports interesting is like me trying to figure out how to steal Eva Longoria away from Tony Parker.  It can't be done.  Please Nielsen, have mercy on us and release Cable info for Saturday nights just to mix it up a little bit! For now ...

Nielsen Ratings Friday May 2, 2008: CBS and Moonlight Are Consistent

Saturday, May 3rd, 2008

[table=1246]CBS took another Friday night during May sweeps and the week looks pretty much similar to last week across the board except that ABC ran an extra 20/20 instead of America's Funniest Home Videos.   And FOX was again dead last, beaten out by the CW and its outgoing WWE product, ...
