Friday’s Numbers
By fred | February 9, 2008
Last night NBC had 6.7 million viewers overnight, and it was the most-watched network of the night. Gives you an idea of how things went down. If you need more, the most-watched program of the night, was a rerun. Sounds awesome, right?
At 8.00, nothing. Really, it’s rerun almost everywhere and The CW beating ABC, nothing new for a Friday night. One hour later there’s change though, maybe it’s because The CW announced that it wouldn’t renew their Friday Night Smackdown - which seems odd to me given how it’s usually a strong performer, not that I care, though - but either way the second half of the show performed a lot less, loosing 1.1 million viewers and down to 3.2 million, behind ABC and their rerun of Desperate Housewives, followed by 3.8 million viewers.
And while the rerun of House grew its audience over last week by 400 000 viewers and was the most-watched program of the night, it seems that when NBC’s Silverman told that basically Friday Night Lights was done and wouldn’t get another season, many fans decided to leave it there, and did not even other this week. With 5.2 million viewers, not only did the show lost about 400 000 viewers since last week, but also hit a season low.
Finally at 10.00 Las Vegas had finally over 7 million viewers again (7.4 million), something that hadn’t happened in a while.
