Ratings: Broadcast Finals for April 13, 2013

ABC premiered the new game show BET ON YOUR BABY and, as expected, viewership was very low. The two hour premiere drew just 2.4 million viewers and a 0.6 demo rating, beating only NBC's combo of the lame duck series SMASH and an encore episode of THE VOICE.  ABC should air the series in a complete run, but I would not expect a second season for the game show.

NASCAR easily took the night in the A18-49 ratings and was the second most watched program (6.3 million), after CBS' 48 HOURS (6.4).

Saturday #2 of SMASH Saturdays produced more low ratings. This week, just 1.8 million viewers tuned in at 8 p.m. It was the least watched program, in both measured categories.

Saturday Night Averages:

FOX - 5.8 million viewers, 1.4 rating in Adults 18-49.

CBS - 5.4 million viewers, 0.9 rating in Adults 18-49.

NBC - 2.3 million viewers, 0.6 rating in Adults 18-49.

ABC - 2.4 million viewers, 0.5 rating in Adults 18-49.
