Ratings: Viewers Say, "Um, Not Yet" to CW Now
This Sunday, as NBC's NFL coverage averaged 16.46 million total viewers from 8 pm/ET on:
" The debuts of the CW's newsmagazine whatevers
CW Now and
Online Nation were sampled by barely a million viewers each. That's way less than half of the year-ago Sunday premiere of, say,
Everybody Hates Chris.
" The news was better for Fox, whose 'toons
The Simpsons (9.44 mil, +500K),
King of the Hill (7.74 mil) and
Family Guy (10.65 mil, +1.3 mil) each drew healthy premiere audiences.
" On CBS,
Cold Case was welcomed back by 12.3 mil, a drop of five mil from last year's opener. Lead-out
Shark christened its new day/time period with 11.54 mil, a mil fewer than caught its Season 1 finale in May.
