1987 ratings
NBC hits an all-time low
In ratings, that is.
We told you recently about the Peacock Network getting its lowest Thursday ratings since 1987 - an average of 6.8 million viewers for the week two weeks ago - but they've already topped that. Or should be say bottomed that, averaging only 6.2 million viewers during last week's rating period.
NBC says that viewers are down on all the networks by about 10%, but I think that's just spin. I mean, there aren't many NBC shows in the top 20 and only a couple of shows that people even talk about. NBC still leads in the evening news and late night races, but that's probably small consolation.
It's really too bad, considering NBC has two of the best shows (Heroes and The Office) on the the four nets, but then again they've dumped a bunch of the best too.
