Ratings: Broadcast Finals for December 27, 2013

Not many people stayed home on the Friday after Christmas, as all five networks failed to reach 5.5 million viewers on the night or reach above a 1.0 rating in Adults 18-49.

On the CW, NIKITA ended it's series run. Like most of the last couple of the seasons, the final episode drew very few viewers, just over 800,000. I wonder how long it will take for a third series to be made on the property?

The night's top most watched program was a repeat of DATELINE, grabbing over 6.2 million viewers and a 1.1 demo rating. It's lead in audience was mostly wasted as one third, or two million viewers, jumped ship at 9 p.m. An additional two million bailed on NBC at 10 p.m., when GRIMM hit the airwaves.

Friday Night Network Averages:

ABC - 4.6 million viewers, 1.0 rating in Adults 18-49

CBS - 5.2 million viewers, 1.0 rating in Adults 18-49

CW - 0.7 million viewers, 0.2 rating in Adults 18-49

FOX - 2.2 million viewers, 0.5 rating in Adults 18-49

NBC - 4.1 million viewers, 0.9 rating in Adults 18-49
