Happy Elf adjusted down but still beat crapkita.
why do u hate nikita so much it is an excellent show but its ratings are so bad if it was on cbs i bet the ratings will be much much much better, and percy wouldn’t have died in last season’s finale.
” It’s a SpongeBob Christmas! ” is missing in table (CBS, 9:30PM)
It looks like CBS can forget about making “Person to Person” a regular series. They could have got more viewers and about the same demo rating with a repeat of “Blue Bloods.”
@Silvio: 0.9/3 A18-49 rtg/shr and 3.61M viewers.
you forgot the 9:30 ratings (spongebob and the simpsons.)
Yay Malibu Country!
I’m still amazed at how badly the Spongebob special did.
A “Simpsons” repeat got the same demo as a new “Fringe”… But it skews way younger…
I expected “SpongeBob” to do better…
Was hoping for an upwards adjustment for Malibu, but I think that is still okay. I think it can rise a bit now to 1.5 or 1.6 and stabilize around this area.
Wonder if Sponge Bob will become annual with this rating
frosty is just to cool……
I knew it on Friday that Frosty would conquer with a 2.0! Right on the dot!
Why doesn’t CBS purchase the rights to broadcast Frosty’s Winter Wonderland? Surely that would fair far better than the dreadful ratings for either of the abysmal 9 PM hour programs.
Good to see LMS and MC holding up well, both shows should grow this week.
I expect Nikita to have either its second best or the best rating of the season on Friday in the more comfortable 8pm timeslot.
ABC has a winner with Malibu Country if it will except the fact that Friday night is not the best for a viewing audience-it is mostly a family night at home in front of the tv and this show is not as trashy as most. We love it! I hoe they give it a chance.
I believe ABC will give Malibu Country a chance. The time period it is in has been rating very well for them. Our family loves the show and we are keeping our fingers crossed for many seasons of Malibu Country. The cast works very well together and they have great on screen chemistry.
