Friday’s Numbers

By fred | May 18, 2008

NumbersLast Friday was a night of finale for CBS, and it won the night, but that was a pretty weak night anyways. Two season finale and one series finale didn’t really boost CBS, averaging 8.6 million viewers and a 2.0 on the demo, which is about the same as one week ago.

At 8.00 Ghost Whisperer was ending its season with 300 000 less viewers, barely making it to 2.0 on the demo. One hour later it was the very end for Moonlight, having its very last episode ever, and 100 000 less viewers were watching. 7.6 million viewers was enough to make it the most-watched program on the slot, but it was the only program on CBS not to reach 2.0 (1.8) Not sure next season The Ex List will do much better though, cause it looks awful, but we’ll see.

Finally at 10.00 and as usual Numb3rs was the most-watched program of the night, with 9.7 million viewers and a 2.3 on the demo.

Other than that, The CW managed to came in first thanks to Friday Night Smackdown (4.0 million, 1.2), beating Fox (Dodgeball, 2.8 million, 1.2) and NBC. NBC who’s not really even trying at this point, because American Gladiators didn’t do well new, but as a rerun it should be no surprise it couldn’t do better than 2.5 million and was unable to reach 1.0 on the demo.
