Post-Super Bowl Ratings
February 6, 2007 by Ingrid Diaz
CBS tried to follow in ABC’s footsteps with ‘Criminal Minds’, putting it after the SuperBowl to attract more viewers. Certainly, it did that, though it didn’t come anywhere near last year’s Grey’s Anatomy ratings.
The Chicago Tribune has put up a list of post-Super Bowl shows and their ratings. Grey’s Anatomy is up t here. Coming in third after Friends and Survivor.
- 1996, “Friends,” 53 million, NBC
- 1997 “The X-Files,” 29 million, Fox
- 1998, “3rd Rock From the Sun,” 33.6 million, NBC
- 1999, “Family Guy,” 22 million, Fox
- 2000, “The Practice,” 24 million, ABC
- 2001, “Survivor: The Australian Outback,” 45.4 million, CBS
- 2002, “Malcolm in the Middle,” 21 million, Fox
- 2003, “Alias,” 17.4 million, ABC
- 2004, “Survivor: All Stars,” 36 million, CBS
- 2005, “The Simpsons,” 23 million/“American Dad,” 15.2 million, Fox
- 2006, “Grey’s Anatomy,” 38 million, ABC
- 2007, “Criminal Minds,” 26.2 million, CBS
Think Criminal Minds will become the next TV hit? I’ve not seen the show so I don’t know if it’s any good.
I think Criminal minds is really good. Its very intriguing into the minds of criminals and how we think and how what we do tells so much about us.
I like watching law and order…….but thats me
I like watching greys anatomy..I like sopranos tooo
