TV Show Ratings for Friday, 04/15/11 [finals]

CBS’ new dramedy, CHAOS had another lousy week but at least it didn’t drop any lower. How soon before it’s cancelled? The kick-off of the final season of Friday Night Lights did just as poorly over on NBC but then many viewers have already seen those episodes on DirecTV or bought the DVD set.

ABC’s Shark Tank had a a nice bump, giving the reality series it’s best Friday ratings of the season and outperformed previous timeslot holder Supernanny. It was business as usual for Primetime and 20/20.

On the The CW, Smallville recovered from last week’s drop and Supernatural dropped a bit. And over at FOX, Kitchen Nightmares was flat and Fringe matched its last original episode from March.
