NBC fell below a 1 rating again last night by repeating its 8-10 pm comedy block and adding another Office repeat at 10:00 (0.8) and Up All Night at 10:30 (0.7). Last year on this night NBC managed a 1.2 rating from 8-11 pm with the same six-comedy strategy (but the comedies were another year younger and relatively more potent): Community (0.8), 30 Rock (1.1), The Office (1.6), Outsourced (1.2), Outsourced (1.2) and The Office (1.2).
