With the rage and sheer disbelief of the ending of the football game last night, it is no wonder that it and the following Sportscenter blew everything else out of the water.
So this is what happened to broadcast tv. Where is Switched at birth? Did it do that badly? Major Crimes keeps slipping. They should not have attempted to keep it going past the broadcast premiers. Although I guess its not to bad. Not ‘Closer’ type of numbers though. Mondays are really, really crowded. Still have to catch up with a couple I missed last nite.
The full “Monday Cable Ratings” offers a preview of the Cable News Ratings later in the day. So already I know that Rachel Maddow got 1.5 million viewers. I hope most of them were on board for Romney’s “China” connection. It looks as though the numbers drop sharply for “The Daily Show” and “Colbert” when they’re in repeats, because the repeats are so close to the first run. These episodes were reruns because Stewart and Cobert were in L.A. for the Emmy’s. They should be back tonight.
Alphas and W13 not up. Those are miserable numbers.
Switched At Birth- 0.6
Ugh!
Major Crimes is ok. It is no Closer however and skews old and this is it’s first season. Older shows on TNT are skewing younger then this I beleive and that is what would concern me but maybe it is doing what TNT wants it to??
Not terrible for Switched at Birth. Shouldn’t drop anymore.
Good numbers for Major Crimes against heavy competition.
Alphas ratings are bad!
Move it to NBC Monday! If Revolution can do good so can Alphas.
The Closer had always skewed older as well but it did have a lot more overall viewers…
the closer didnt have an annoying teenager sub plot dragging the episode down each week.
Monday was overcrowded!!!!
Switched at Birth, please go back up next week. Thank you! You’re too good of a show to be at a 0.6
That has to be the lowest Raw’s third hour has been since they moved to three hours.
I’m still shocked that the replacement refs called it a touchdown. Insane! Sportscenter benefited a lot from that call at the end of the game
the packers deserved to win that game not seattle
@KarenM The scary part is that NBC’s actually made worse decisions. Shame about the show, though. I’m a big fan.
Not good for S@B .Its fallen a lot in three weeks and all broadcast network Monday shows haven’t returned/premiered yet.
Poor ratings from Alphas and WH13. Great episode of Alphas, probably the best episode I watched of the shows last night.
Monday is waaaay to overstuffed. It’s worse than Tuesday’s at 10 in January
