Ratings: Broadcast Finals for January 10, 2014
Friday night was split leadership between ABC, taking the A18-49 ratings, and CBS, with the most viewers, as both networks saw some of it's best numbers for the night.The most watched program of the night was BLUE BLOODS, grabbing 12.7 million viewers, a season high for the veteran crime drama. The 1.5 rating in Adults 18-49 is just the third time the series has posted that number, or higher, this season.
An hour earlier, on CBS, HAWAII FIVE-O posted it's best viewership numbers of the season, getting 10.7 million viewers. It is the first time this season, in it's new time slot, it has pushed over 10 million viewers.
On ABC, SHARK TANK was the #1 show in the A18-49 ratings, drawing a 2.1 mark. It is the best rating the reality series has posted for the season. The great ratings does not stop there. Kicking off the night for the network was LAST MAN STANDING, and like the previously mentions shows, it too posted season best numbers, hauling in 7.2 million viewers.
On the flip side, is FOX. It's two comedies were two of the three lowest rated programs of the night, from the Big 4 networks, and the series premiere of the new sitcom ENLISTED was the lowest rated show in both categories. I am not sure what FOX is thinking with this hour, other than SOMETHING has to fill the time. They could have kept COPS and placed it on Fridays and gotten better numbers than the two comedies.
