Monday, October 1, 2012 ratings — There weren’t any of series premiere but we had plenty of original installments of The Voice, Revolution, How I Met Your Mother, Partners, 2 Broke Girls, Mike & Molly, Hawaii Five-0, Bones, The Mob Doctor, Dancing with the Stars, and Castle. The CW had a special called IHeartRadio Music Festival.
On NBC, it was another big night. The Voice won in both the 18-49 demographic and total viewership categories with a 4.5 rating and 12.32 million. It was up 2% over last week’s demo.
That was followed at 10pm with Revolution. The third episode registered a 3.2 rating with 8.40 million, down 6% from last week’s. This was the timeslot winner in the demo but was second in total viewers, behind Castle on ABC.
On CBS, all of the comedies were down when compared to last week but Hawaii Five-0 was up. How I Met Your Mother dropped 11% to a 3.2 rating with 8.15 million.
The second episode of Partners dropped 13% to a 2.1 demo rating and 5.71 million viewers. The show was in trouble last week and now it looks like it’s fate is sealed.
At 9pm, 2 Broke Girls fell 8% to a 3.4 demo rating and 9.02 million. It was followed by Mike & Molly which was down by 6% with a 2.9 rating and 8.51 million.
The night finished with Hawaii Five-0. Last week’s episode was a series low for the series and things got better this week — but just barely. The cop series attracted a 1.9 in the demo with 7.72 million viewers. It tied Castle in the demo and was in third place in viewership.
On FOX, there wasn’t any good news. Bones fell 9% when compared to last week’s demo, hitting a 2.1 in the demo and 6.90 million. That was followed by waiting-to-be-cancelled Mob Doctor at 9pm. The newbie series hit a 1.0 in the demo and 3.54 million, down by a whopping 24% week-to-week.
And finally, on The CW, we had the IHeartRadio Music Festival special. It drew a 0.7 demo rating with 1.72 million viewers and was in last place for both of the special’s two hours.
What do you think? Are you surprised by the lower ratings on CBS? Do you think the fates of Partners and Mob Doctor are sealed? What were you watching last night?

Revolution is such an awesome show, however they need to make it at an earlier time and not on monday so it doesn’t have to compete with Monday night football, cuz nothing ever will. But the ratings it’s getting despite that is pretty impressive. I really hope this show doesn’t get cancelled
This year’s prime time line up is pretty awesome, but it sucks that some of my favorite shows aren’t doing so great. My coworkers, my girlfriend, and I are pretty bummed that Hawaii Five-0 isn’t doing well, but competition is steep this year. None of us can decide what to watch on Mondays. My girlfriend is always over at my place to watch her prime time shows.
