THE SKED'S FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD



Something unusual for NBC these days:  good news.

NBC:  A 1.6 rating may not sound like anything to celebrate, but it's a pretty good number for Friday night (only one show all evening did better last night).  More importantly, it represented a stable hold for GRIMM from last week, and it was good enough to tie CBS for the lead in its hour.  That's practically enough for a celebration down Lankershim Avenue outside NBC's offices.  One cautionary note:  Grimm won't air again for at least 3 weeks, with preemptions on both of the next 2 Fridays.  As FOX can testify, those kinds of breaks can wreak havoc with new shows.  


FOX:  FRINGE, possibly feeling the weight of Grimm's presence in its timeslot, held at its series low 1.1 rating after KITCHEN NIGHTMARES won the 8PM hour.

CBS:  The highest rated show of the night was BLUE BLOODS, locking up the nightly win.  Even the soon-to-disappear A GIFTED MAN was only 0.1 off the lead at 8PM.

ABC:  Third place in every hour, although EXTREME MAKEOVER HOME EDITION was up nicely from last week.

CW:  Both NIKITA and SUPERNATURAL were within the 0.6-0.8 CW window.

Sunday night will be disrupted by the AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS on ABC.  Last year's awards did a 4.3 in 18-49s, which was down substantially from the 5.5 the show had done the year before.
