Complete Nielsen Ratings: Week of 09/17/12
The full Nielsen rankings and ratings from #1 to #86:
NBC continues to dominate the ratings with its early series and season premieres. The peacock network managed to generate a 3.0 demo rating for the week and average 8.4 million viewers. CBS came in second place, over 30% behind in the 18-49 demographic (1.9 rating), but kept it close in total viewers with 7.9 million, 500,000 behind NBC.
ABC and FOX came in 3rd and 4th, respectively, in total viewers, but alternated positions in the demo ratings.
NBC placed eight programs in the top 25, bested only be CBS, which had 11 programs. NBC is looking good on almost all the nights, except Thursdays. All of its shows premiered during this week and the highest place achieved was THE OFFICE at #51. We could see the writing on the wall back in May that NBC would not be competitive on Thursdays, but with no else in originals for the night, it still struggled.
To close out our summer long watch of ION TV catching up to The CW in the season long ratings, the final numbers are in. ION did manage to get within 320,00 of the CW in total viewers, over the last 52 weeks. ION just didn't have enough during the summer to push over and drop The CW to 6th place.
