Broadcast Final Ratings: May 9, 2014

It was an all-CBS finale Friday as all three crime dramas ended their 2013-14 seasons. The network averaged 9.4 million viewers and a 1.2 rating in Adults 18-49.

UNFORGETTABLE did what little it could do for the six week's it had during the regular season. The numbers were below what UNDERCOVER BOSS averaged in the time slot, but it was not a horrible performance either. The series will return later this year to run the remaining episodes of season three.

HAWAII FIVE-O and BLUE BLOODS were down slightly from their season averages, but were a very good one-two punch on the night. The duo did allow SHARK TANK and 20/20 out perform them, but the numbers are still strong, for the night. Both series are returning for 2014-15 and should continue to draw large viewership numbers again.

Earlier this week, NBC renewed HANNIBAL. I still am trying to see the logic behind that decision. it is always near the bottom of the weekly ratings and may be NBC's worst rated original program. That is saying a lot, considering how many dogs NBC has had on it's schedule this Season.
