Week 16 TV Ratings and Analysis; How the Sitcoms Did
2013-14 Week 16 TV Ratings (first four nights, Mon-Thu):
Sitcoms in green did excellent for the week, while yellow indicates OK showings and red is not good! This is sorted by adults 18-49:
Households: #1. CBS 6.7/10.5 rating/share (+46% from first four nights Week 15); #2. ABC 3.8/5.9 (+23%); #3. NBC 3.5/5.5 (+46%); #4. Fox 2.0/3.1 (+54%); #5. The CW 0.5/1 (-29%)
