With several shows returning for the new year, NBC got a big boost from their Sunday Night Football telecast, to hold off the season premieres in all three main categories. In a tough battle for second place, CBS held off FOX among households and viewers, but the network failed to reach the younger A18-49 demographic, where FOX placed second on the night, with a strong year-to-year improvement from the Star Wars themed Family Guy special.
Speaking to the premieres, Family Guy and King of the Hill were the only shows to increase their viewership from the season prior, with the rest of the season premieres (60 Minutes, Cold Case, Shark and The Simpsons) debuting down.
And in regards to The CW, most of the nation decided against taking a look at CW Now and Online Nation with the former just barely reaching the 1 million viewer mark, and the later failing to reach even that many viewers.

A double-dose of 20/20 leads ABC over its competition on Friday night. FOX’s new lineup of ‘5th Grader’ and the new series Nashville continue to disappoint, as the network landed in last place on the night.

Big evening of series/season premieres and finales goes to CBS among households and viewers, while FOX takes the night among adults 18-49. Kid Nation performs so-so, down year-to-year, while FOX’s Back to You does well for the network, especially among adults 18-49. On The CW, ‘Top Model’ posted its usual strong season premiere numbers, but its lead-out, the new drama Gossip Girl doesn’t fare too well, only able to match last year’s timeslot numbers.

CBS takes the evening among households and viewers, while NBC’s Biggest Loser fueled lineup gives the network a win among adults 18-49. In season premiere news, The CW’s Beauty and the Geek finally gave The CW something to be pleased about after a dismal summer performance from the network, however the news wasn’t all good, as the series premiered below last season’s opener.

Despite a night of new programming from both NBC and FOX, CBS still manages to come away with a win on the evening among households and adults 18-49. The below-average season premiere of Prison Break and the solid series premiere of K-Ville combine to give FOX a win on the evening among adults 18-49.
