Primetime Ratings: September 2013

[wingwalker]

CBS in first, NBC in last, I see the Universe has restored order to it's rightful place.

Wow at Big Bang! Not only it premiere up from last season's premiere, but it did so by nearly 3.5 million viewers and .5 in the demo. That just doesn't often in these days of tv. Then the 8:30 episode, already broke 20 million and most watched episode to date, I can only image how high these ratings are going to be come winter.

I enjoyed Crazy Ones and while it's total viewers is great, that 3.9 demo is not (and only on CBS is a 3.9 too low). That's a whole 2 point drop from 8:30 Big Bang's 6.1. Next week it won't have Big Bang as a lead in to help it get that, but the Millers. Which maybe will be a good thing, it'll only have to retain what Miller's does, while Millers will have huge task of keeping Big Bang viewers around.

Even though I knew Robin Williams would beat out Michael J Fox, I expected more than for MJ Fox. I bet NBC did too. I wonder how much his disease plays a role? I know I have read many comments online and talked to people in my every day life that have said they wouldn't watch simply cause they fear they'd be uncomfortable seeing his Parkinson's every week. If that's the case, I don't know what NBC needs to do to get over that stigma and fear.

And these numbers prove Glee should have died last year. Fox should have never gave it a 2 season renewal. They are going to regret it.

I think we have seen Michael in other shows like The Good Wife and his other hit after FT....I dont believe we have seen Robin since Mork and Mindy doing a regular TV show. I just love the cast to Robin's show.

Thus Robin beating Michael.....I watched Robin's show and DVR Michael's show.

Michael J. Fox is more known for his fight with Parkinson's than his acting career, even though he's steadily worked over the years. He hasn't had a TV show since Spin City, and that was never a huge hit.
