Fast National ratings for Friday, Oct. 9, 2009
Friday night’s ratings for CBS took a similar path to last Friday giving it the most viewers thanks to new series “Medium” and mainstays “Ghost Whisperer” and “Numb3rs.” But NBC’s justice slate of “Law & Order” and “Dateline” came in second, proving that scheduled repeats of new series “FlashForward” and “Modern Family” just isn’t enough when so few viewers are available.
CBS averaged 8 million viewers and an 5.1 rating/9 share in households. NBC took second with 6.5 million viewers and an 4.4/8 share, ABC (4 million, 2.8/5) was third, followed by FOX (2.3 million, 1.5/3) came in fourth, ahead of The CW (1.7 million, 1.1/2).
