-Ratings Breakdown:
CBS remains the network to beat on Tuesday with a first-place overnight finish in every half-hour care of NCIS (12.5 rating/19 share), spin-off NCIS: Los Angeles (11.0/17) and older-skewing The Good Wife (8.5/14). Comparably, CBS bested second-place Fox by a considerable 4.9 rating points (but its advantage among adults 18-49 will be considerably smaller as a result of Glee).
Fox’s Glee, of course, was on the map with a second-place 8.0/12 in the overnights at 8 p.m. (and a guaranteed victory among adults 18-49). But critically acclaimed comedy Raising Hope dipped to third at 9 p.m. with a 4.1/ 6 in the overnights (49 percent below the 8:30 p.m. portion of Glee – 8.1/12), and week two of Traffic Light sunk to a mere (and fourth-place) 2.6/ 4 at 9:30 p.m. One week earlier, Traffic Light was already DOA with a 3.4/ 5 on Feb. 8. Tick, tock…the cancellation clock is ticking.
Third-place NBC had nothing unusual to report with its combination of The Biggest Loser (5.0/ 8 from 8-10 p.m.) and Parenthood (#2: 3.6/ 6 at 10 p.m.), which dipped by 36 percent from the 9:30 p.m. portion of The Biggest Loser (5.6/ 9). Here is the half-hour breakdown for demo friendly The Biggest Loser:
The Biggest Loser (NBC)
8:00 p.m.: 4.6/ 7 (#3)
8:30 p.m.: 4.6/ 7 (#3)
9:00 p.m.: 5.3/ 8 (#2)
9:30 p.m.: 5.6/ 9 (#2)
Elsewhere, ABC housed three “losers” last night: No Ordinary Family (#4: 3.3/ 5), V (#4: 3.7/ 6) and Detroit 1-8-7 (#3: 3.4/ 6). And The CW two: One Tree Hill (#5: 1.3/ 2) and relocated Hellcats (#5: 1.1/ 2). Sadly, One Tree Hill is one of The CW’s higher rated series. As a reminder, long-awaited ABC crime solver Body of Proof steps into the Tuesday 10 p.m. hour in April.

not looking bright for V huh? too bad.
ReplyDeleteI am wiating for tables to be released.They give better real data on total and 18-49 numbers.But based on Early numbers V did best on ABC tuesday.It Improved on No Ordinary Family and Detroit 1-8-7 couldn't hold
ReplyDeleteall of V's numbers.The website Is treat ABC and CW tuesday shows like they do CHuck.A lot of what this website calls winners you couldn't pay me to watch.
Don't know, quite hard to say as long as we won't get the complete ratings. I know some people are already laughing.
ReplyDeleteAgree. TVByTheNumbers like V being in bad shape, I don't wanna think too quickly. Can't wait for the tables. Each wednesday is a torture for me, I still fear the worse for V, I don't want see it going away. NOF killed V!
ReplyDeleteI am watching less and less new TV
ReplyDeleteABC-V and No Ordinary Family
CBS_hawaii Five O
CW-Smallville,Vampire Diaries
NBC-The Event
Fox-The Simpsons
ABC axing V would upset me like the WB cancling Angel(which caused me to never watch any new WB shows after that.To this day still haven't watched Supernatural because of It) and Fox long stand of cancling shows finallyw ent too far with me with DollHouse and from now on I will onlyw atch Simpsons on Fox.The story should be V IS doing the best on ABC on tuesday
and has lyal following.
V has a 50 percent chance for renewal.It will never get a full season order but could get another 10-12 order for next midseason.When you consdier warner brothers won't allow V to be shown online anymore the V fanbase Is remaing loyal.
It will come down to what other tuesday scripted shows do after V completes their short season,how ABC pilots are seen(The WB canned Angel thinking It would have a remake of dark Shadows to take It's place but the their rejected the pilot) and how much support V has among the top ABC brass.
V's ratings were up and the show was ABC's highest-rated scripted show last night. Unfortunately the numbers are still terrible.
ReplyDeleteSince the show has been so good this year I'm hoping ABC takes pity on the series and orders one more 10 episode season to wrap it up.
Saying ratings are terrible is one thing, but it is more than a good news to know that even this long hiatus (may 2010-january 2011), V didn't drop significantly like being at 3 or 4 million since its returns, I think it'll make a huge difference in the decision of ABC.
ReplyDeleteIf V dropped to 3 or 4 million, ABC would of pulled it off the air. V may have not dropped in the ratings but maintaining a bad rating isn't a significantly better situation.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's fair to blame No Ordinary Family. It's in its first Season, #V didn't produce fantastic ratings in S1 either. The show has no lead in and is up against GLEE, it's a tough time-slot. #V has been given a second chance but still under-performing....the lack of improvement is No Ordinary Family or any other show...
