"Ghost Whisperer" scares up biggest audience Friday; CBS wins the night with double dose of "Numb3rs" posted by halboedeker on Dec 20, 2008 12:11:56 PM Friday was CBS' story the whole way. "Ghost Whisperer" pulled in prime time's biggest audience, and two episodes of "Numb3rs" kept CBS on top. At 8, "Ghost Whisperer" averaged 10.2 million viewers. Fox was second as 6.2 million enrolled in "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?" At 9, a "Numb3rs" repeat drew 7.8 million to CBS. The first hour of "Dateline NBC" ran second with 6.1 million. On Fox, "Don't Forget the Lyrics!" had 5 million playing along. At 10, a new "Numb3rs" had the biggest numer: 9.2 million fans. A second hour of "Dateline" pulled 6.4 million to NBC. ABC's "20/20" ran third with 5.7 million. For the night, CBS averaged 9.1 million in prime time. I have numbers for these broadcasters: Fox with 5.6 million, NBC with 5.2 million, ABC with 4.1 million and The CW with 1.4 million. CBS easily won the 18-to-49 age group. NBC and Fox tied for second, edging ABC. |
