Ratings: Broadcast Finals for January 15, 2013
PARENTHOOD may not draw huge ratings, but the drama is one of the few NBC shows drawing near a 2.0 demo rating. Tuesday, it won the 10 p.m. hour with just under 5 million viewers and a 1.9 demo rating. Wen you consider VEGAS draws 127% more total viewers, but 15% less A18-49 viewers, its not a bad performance.CBS continued its dominance on the night, winning in both measured categories. The network averaged 17.3 million viewers and a 2.7 demo rating. CBS was the only network to produce a program over 6 million viewers or post a demo rating over 2.0.
Tuesday night is comedy night as FOX, NBC and ABC each program 2 hours of comedy. Unfortunately, viewers are not finding most of the offerings humorous. Eight of the 12 comedies could not draw 4 million viewers. Each network needs to work on both the comedies being delivered and the strategy on scheduling them.
