Original ratings data ©The Nielsen Company. All rights reserved.

A couple of things to remember:
The averages included in these charts are based on the final numbers, not the fast affiliate ratings that are reported the morning after a show airs. These final numbers become available one to three days later (depending on holidays or weekends). The charts are updated as we get the new data.

Whether we like it or not, the demo numbers are what’s most important to the networks because that’s what’s important to advertisers. That’s how the networks measure success. Advertisers will pay more money for ad time on a show with a higher demo rating than one with more overall viewers. For example, Castle has more viewers than Grey’s Anatomy but an ad on Grey’s costs 30% more ($203,078 vs. $121,914).

Demo numbers are reported by Nielsen using the 10th decimal place (2.1, for example). In these charts, we’re including the rounded demo average as well as the average in 100ths (2.14, for example) in parenthesis so you can get a better idea of how the number’s been affected by the latest episode’s rating.

The letter grades are relative and are based on the individual network’s overall performance in either the scripted or non-scripted categories. The networks all have very different gauges for success. A hit show on The CW would get quickly cancelled on CBS. Our system for coming up with letter grades isn’t perfect but it should still give you an idea of where the shows stand when compared to others on the same network.

*The letter grades for TV series that run on Friday and Saturday nights are weighted a little differently to compensate for them airing on little-watched nights.

What do you think? How are your favorites doing? Are any of them in danger of being cancelled or sure to to be renewed?

How anyone could watch REALITY shows I will never no. Its a win win for the network for sure. The NON-actors work cheap. And they get paid by advertisers and paid by TV subscribers as well and pay out to make the show is VERY low. Its not hard to see why the networks LOVE them. But WHY DO PEOPLE WATCH THEM???? I will never no. I would rather watch re-runs of GunSmoke. The ( Missing ) was a great show as well as Burden of Proof. Both canceled.

ABC is notorious for cancelling great TV shows. I hope that the whole company gets down, they dont deserve to be in this business. Psychopath management, absolute coin driven down to the bone. Greed has never a good ending. They already showed the middle finger to at least 50 million americans and keep doing so, hopefully there viewer numbers goes down and people stop supporting crappy companies llike this

Please give “Missing” another chance. I just went on line to see if it was coming back and was very dissapointed that it was canceled.
