----------
-Ratings Breakdown:
It was a typical Thursday overnight sweep for CBS care of its combination of red-hot The Big Bang Theory (12.7 rating/20 share), Two and a Half Men (9.4/15), sophomore Person of Interest (9.7/15) and recent entry Elementary (7.6/13). But one year earlier, former Thursday 10 p.m. CBS occupant The Mentalist was stronger at an 8.8/15.
Second overall was ABC with its line-up of canceled Last Resort (#2: 4.0/ 7), veteran Grey’s Anatomy (#2: 7.0/11) and compatible Scandal (#2: 6.1/11), which was 24 percent above year-ago occupant Private Practice (4.9/ 8 on 1/12/12). As a reminder, new ABC drama Zero Hour debuts in the Thursday 8 p.m. hour on February 14.
In time period premiere news, sitcom 1600 Penn lifted NBC to a season high at 9:30 p.m., with a 2.9/ 5 in the overnights. But that still ranked a distant third in the time period, and it was one-tenth of a rating point behind former occupant Up All Night on the year-ago evening (3.0/ 5 on 1/12/12). Comparably, retention for 1600 Penn out of The Office (#3: 3.5/ 5) was 83 percent.
Earlier in the evening on NBC was 30 Rock (#3: 2.8/ 5), which officially concludes on January 31, and a repeat of the pilot episode of 1600 Penn (#3: 3.1/ 5) from 8-9 p.m. At 10 p.m., Rock Center With Brian Williams, which moves to Friday at 10 p.m. on February 8, finished a distant third with a 2.9/ 5.
Elsewhere, Fox populated this second Thursday in January with Mobbed (#4: 2.3/ 4), hosted by Howie Mandel, and a repeat of Glee (#4: 1.3/ 2). And The CW aired The 18th Annual Critics Choice Awards, which finished fifth with a 1.7/ 3 from 8-10 p.m.
