| TV: Wednesday Ratings With the big American Idol final being last night these should be of no surprise to anyone...
FOX averaged a 17.1 rating/26 share in primetime to win the final night of the 2004-05 season. ABC was a strong second at 10.0/16, and the rest of the networks were left to fight for scraps. NBC was third at 6.5/10, with CBS fourth at 5.2/8. UPN, 1.3/2, and The WB, 1.0/2, barely made a dent.
Among adults 18-49, FOX scored a whopping 12.2 rating, nearly doubling ABC's 6.5. NBC was a distant third at 2.9, followed by CBS, 1.7; UPN, 0.8; and The WB, 0.5. |
