-Ratings Breakdown:
CBS led this atypical Tuesday, which featured President Obama’s State of the Union Address on the Big 4 networks from approximately 9-10 p.m. (followed by an analysis). Second overall was Fox, with NBC third, ABC fourth and The CW a very distant fifth.
A repeat of NCIS on CBS opened the evening with a dominant 8.1 rating/13 share in the overnights from 8-9 p.m. Second was a repeat of American Idol on Fox (6.4/10), which originally aired at 11 p.m. on Sunday after the Giants/49ers football match-up, followed by a one-hour edition of NBC’s The Biggest Loser (4.1/ 6), two repeat episodes of sitcom Last Man Standing on ABC (avg. 3.7/ 7) and an encore telecast of 90210 on The CW (1.0/ 2). As a reminder, Cougar Town on ABC opens its third season in the Tuesday 8:30 p.m. half-hour on February 14.
The State of The Union Address fared as follows from 9-10 p.m.:
NBC: 5.4/ 8, CBS: 5.0/ 8, ABC: 4.6/ 7, Fox: 3.4/ 5
Keep in mind, of course, that results for any live sporting event are always approximate. Despite the lack of entertainment competition, week two of Remodeled on The CW trailed with a miniscule 0.7/ 1 at 9 p.m. One week earlier it opened with a 0.6/ 1 on Jan. 17.
At 10 p.m., the half-hour analysis is estimated by network as follows:
NBC: 5.6/ 8, ABC: 5.1/ 8, CBS: 4.9/ 8, Fox: 3.7/ 6
The 10:30 p.m. half-hour featured a continued news analysis on NBC (3.9/ 6), followed by encore telecasts of The Big Bang Theory on CBS (3.6/ 6) and Modern Family on ABC (3.4/ 6).

Thank you!
ReplyDeletePoor CW.
ReplyDeleteWhat would it have to do to get better ratings.
I wonder if they aired NCIS or House on the CW, would the ratings go up then, or is it just something intrinsic to the network that has to be addressed from the ground up!
Wow, not exactly a night full of new episodes.
ReplyDeleteI've been wondering the same thing in regards to NBC, really don't know enough about how the networks are run but its interesting to think about
ReplyDeleteI know absolutely nothing about how the networks work but it seems strange, always concerning the CW in this case, that any new show they have aired lately, whatever the subject material, just doesn't seem to be able to boost their ratings.
