With reruns and holiday specials occupying most of the airwaves, NBC was able to grab a rare non-Sunday win.
NBC: The Peacock was the only network airing original scripted programming, and although CHUCK and GRIMM were each a bit down (to 0.9 and 1.5, respectively), that was enough, combined with DATELINE's 1.3, to take the night.
ABC: EXTREME MAKEOVER HOME EDITION, now officially on its way out as a regular series, held steady with a 1.3 average over its 2 hours. The 20/20 at 10PM, however, got crushed by Dateline, down to a 0.9.
FOX: Repeats of Charlie Brown, Ice Age and Simpsons holiday specials couldn't do better than 0.9-1.2.
CBS: An all-repeat night, in the 0.8-1.0 range.
CW: Winter repeats continue.
On Sunday, CBS airs its 3-hour SURVIVOR finale/reunion extravaganza, against the football game NBC had to take (Baltimore vs San Diego) because they weren't allowed to air the one they wanted (New England vs. God Tim Tebow Denver), along with repeats and holiday specials on the other networks (plus the finale of ALLEN GREGORY). All the pop culture noise, though, is over at Showtime, which has the DEXTER season finale followed by what's become, despite its seemingly blah 0.5 rating, the event of the season: the season finale of HOMELAND, probably the most eagerly awaited last episode since Breaking Bad's earlier in the year. Don't screw it up, Homeland producers!
