TV NEWS ON NOVEMBER 11

http://blog.sitcomsonline.com/2012/11/week-7-tv-ratings-and-analysis-how.html 2012-13 Week 7 TV Ratings (first four nights, Mon-Thu): Households: N/A Total Viewers: N/A. Adults 18-49: N/A Week 7 (Nov. 5-11) Analysis: The week is a little better but the #1 market New York is still excluded from the ratings because of the storm from the previous week. Tuesday's ratings had Election coverage, so that boosted NBC and ABC big over their normal line-ups. We don't have the final first four night averages for the networks, but we do have final program ratings for the first four nights, which you will see below. We can project that CBS has the lead in HH/viewers and NBC has the lead in adults 18-49 thanks to a three-night The Voice. ABC or CBS is probably second in adults 18-49, while Fox is likely stuck in fourth. ABC is probably second in HH/viewers, followed by NBC and Fox. When the week is done, NBC will likely hang on and win the week in 18-49 thanks to the NFL tonight. CBS and ABC will battle for second. More on that later. As for last week, week 6, NBC won the week among adults 18-49 after losing to Fox the previous week. CBS took second, while ABC was in third and Fox was well back in fourth. Among total viewers, CBS took that crown after Fox took it the previous week. NBC and ABC battled for second, with NBC with the edge in total viewers and they were tied in households. Fox was well back in fourth. Monday had NBC on top in adults 18-49, while ABC took the total viewer crown. Starting with ABC, a two-hour Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars did 13.48 million and a 2.1 18-49 rating, down two tenths in 18-49 from previous week. Castle followed with 10.02 million and a 1.9 18-49 rating, down three tenths in 18-49 from previous week. New York is still excluded because of the Hurricane. For NBC, a two-hour The Voice, did 11.93 million and a night best 4.5 18-49 rating, but down three tenths in 18-49 from previous week. A new Revolution followed with 7.34 million and a 2.8 18-49 rating, down two tenths in 18-49 from previous week for a series low. Next up was CBS, they returned with new episodes, as How I Met Your Mother did 7.22 million and 2.8 18-49 rating, as it was below normal. A new episode of Partners did 5.67 million and a 2.1 18-49 rating, which is not good but at least it has been consistent and not fallen much from its premiere. A new 2 Broke Girls followed with 9.01 million and a 3.2 18-49 rating, which is solid and has a great jump from its lead-in, but this show also did better at 8:30 last season. Next, a new Mike & Molly garnered 8.78 million and a 2.8 18-49 rating, which is solid. A new Hawaii Five-0 at 10pm did 7.53 million and a 2.0 18-49, as this show has really fallen this season. Fox was next with a new Bones doing 7.3 million and a 2.0 18-49 rating, which is not what it used to do, but good enough. A new episode of dud The Mob Doctor did only 3.4 million and a 1.0 18-49 rating. The CW aired a new 90210 at 8 with just 850,000 viewers and a 0.4 18-49 rating, as that is horrible. And a new Gossip Girl followed with just 660,000 viewers and a 0.3 18-49 rating, which is horrendous. On Tuesday, it was time to elect our next President of the United States, as the big four covered the Presidential Election, with NBC and ABC on top. Starting with CBS, its normal schedule of NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles and Vegas was preempted for CBS Campaign 2012 coverage which posted 7.83 million and a 2.5 18-49 rating in primetime, for third in battle of network coverage. ABC didn't have Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars, comedies Happy Endings and Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 and drama Private Practice as ABC Your Voice, Your Vote 2012 coverage did very well with 10.38 million and a 3.4 18-49 rating in primetime, which was a solid second place of all networks. NBC didn't air The Voice or its comedies Go On & The New Normal, along with Parenthood, but they came out on top with NBC Decision 2012 coverage with 12.01 million and a 4.3 18-49 rating in primetime. Fox preempted its comedies Raising Hope, Ben and Kate, New Girl and The Mindy Project for coverage of Election doing only 4.04 million and a 1.6 18-49 rating in primetime. The CW preempted Hart of Dixie at 8pm for a special repeat of Arrow on a special night and did 1.38 million and a 0.4 18-49 rating, which is not too bad. New series Emily Owens MD followed with a repeat doing 970,000 viewers and a 0.2 18-49 rating, which is low.
