Week 2 Analysis ratings
This covers Friday October 1 to Thursday October 7.Now I take both the total Numbers and the 18-49 total Demo as part of the analyzing ratings.Some may not like how I analyze them but I use the numbers for total and 18-49 Demo.I certainly don't make up any numbers.

Friday

ABC
Rerun of Modern Family came In third the first half hour In overall ratings with a 3.9.It tied Smallville for third In 18-49 audience with 1.Rerun of The Middle also finished third overall with 3.1 but was beated by Smallville In younger audience's with a 0.8The rerun of No Ordinary Family came up Third In both overall viewers and 18-49 Audience with 3.9 and 1.3.20/20 was the best overall on ABC for the night with 4.5 but It's 1 In 18-49 Demo shows Younger viewers are largely Ignoring It.

CBS
Medium came In second at total viewers In first hour with 5.9.I mentioned last week they should not get cocky,and this proves It.It ties dateline NBC for first In 18-49 with 1.2 However It and dateline are just barely beating Smallville and Modern Family rerun among younger viewers.CSI:New York Dominates the second hour with a 9.6 among all viewers and 1.7 among 18-49 year olds. Blue Bloods Is Friday's biggest show with 11.2 and 2 among 18-49 Demo.

NBC
Dateline NBC won hour 1 with 6.1 In total viewers barely edging out Medium.It tied Medium for the win among 18-49 share with 1.2 Again though this barely edges out Smallville and Modern Family rerun among the 18-49 audience.Hour 2 of Dateline was second In both categorized to CSI:new York. Outlaw meanwhile continues to be In trouble.It received 4.8 In total viewers coming In second In last hour but just a 1 In 18-49 Demo tied with 20/20 Not a good sign at all.

FOX
They quickly postponed the season premiere of Human Target to another night and put a rerun of House. House came in fourth with 2.5 among all viewers but 0.8 among 18-49.Smallville and rerun of Modern family beat It among younger viewers.However the second half hour was tied with the middle.Meanwhile The Good Guys continues to be the next candidate for Fox to ax with 2.5 among all viewers.and coming up with 0.7 among 18-49 audience.The worst show last night among younger viewers.


CW
Smallville received 2.3 among all viewers and a 1 among younger viewers.It beat House and The Middle reruns among the 18-49 Demo and tied with Modern Family here.Supernatural pretty much got the same as Smallville with a 2.3 among all viewers.And a 1 among 18-49.It beat The Good Guys among younger viewers. And among 18-49 year olds Dateline NBC barely beat them.In one of the few good decisions by the CW Is the parings of Smallville and Supernatural.Now If only the CW would promote them better.


Sunday

ABC
Extreme Makeover tied The Simpson's for third In total viewers with 8.6 but came In dead last among 18-49
with 2.5.Desperate Housewives Is the success show for ABC on Sunday with 13.1 tying Undercover boss for second In the timeslot.It nearly beat Undercover Boss among 18-49 year olds with 4.3.This week It beat Family Guy among younger viewers.Brothers and Sisters continues to show It has trouble keeping some of the Desperate Housewives audience with 9.3 In total viewers.It had 3 In 18-49 Demo.However it just barely lost In the demo to CSI Miami

CBS
For first Hour Amazing Race came In second with 10.7 however It came In third among 18-49 year olds with a 3.3.Undercover Boss was CBS's big success for the night coming In second with 13.1 tying Desperate Housewives.It narrowly lost 18-49 Demo to Desperate Housewives with a 4.CSI Miami came with a 11.8 In all viewers but a 3.2 In younger viewers just barely Edging out Brothers and Sisters among 18-49 Demo

NBC
Football won all viewers and 18-49 Demo

FOX
The Simpsons tied Extreme makeover for third among all viewers with 8.6(Improving on the season Premiere's numbers) but beat both Extreme Makeover and Amazing race among younger viewers with a 4.1. Bottom Line The Simpsons still has life left In It.The Cleveland show Isn't as strong as The Simpsons with 6.7 In total viewers and 3.1 In 18-49 Year olds.It finished fourth In total viewers and third In 18-49 Demo losing barely to Amazing Race In the Demo.Family Guy dropped from season premiere numbers to 7.9 among all viewers and 3.9 among 18-49 demo.American Dad continues to be Fox's Weakest Sunday show with 6.1 among all viewers and 2.9 In 18-49.Bottom Line The Simpsons was Fox's big success Sunday.And It proved the glee actors doing voices for the season premiere were not the reason for It's ratings since this week It actually Improved without glee actors and did better than Family Guy.


Monday

ABC
Dancing with the Stars dominated total viewers.Among 18-49 it had for hour 1 4.1 and for hour 2 4.6.Barely beating House In Hour 1 and 2 and a half men during hour 2 among younger viewers.Castle finished In last hour 2 among both total viewers and 18-49 Demo with 11.9 and 3.It barely lost to Hawaii Five-O.As a firefly/Serenity fan I am happy for Nathan Fillion but Dances with the Stars may be helping it and It may face a drop Off when It ends.

CBS
How I met Your Mother had decent performance with 8.6 In total viewers and 3.4 among 18-49.Rules of Engagement Is holding on to most of How I Met Your Mother's audience with 8.5 and 3.2 And a Half Men Is CBS's biggest success on Mondays with 14.2 and 4.5.Unfortuntly Mike and Molly Is holding well at 12.3 and 3.8.Hawaii Five-0 moved ahead of Castle for the win with 12 In total viewers and 3.5

Bottom Line The Event will be here for the rest of the season.Chase Is having trouble keeping the Event's audience with 5.8 In total viewers and 1.7 among 18-49 Demo.It does better than Chuck with total viewers but not as well with Younger viewers.

FOX

CW
America's Next top Model had 2.9 In total viewers and 1.3 among 18-49 Demo.Hellcats has 2.2 In total viewers but a 0.9 among 18-49 Demo.This suggests older viewers are watching Hellcats.Hellcats does decently among all viewers but Is dropping among younger viewers.It will probably go to full season but If both Gossip Girl and One tree Hill survive It could not be renewed for next season.
