Spotted Ratings, Thursday 12/1/11


WHAT MATTERS:
  • With the normal ABC, CBS and CW lineups sitting out the evening, most other shows weren't really able to capitalize. Community, free of Big Bang Theory competition, hit its highest number in awhile and was (relative to previous results) the brightest spot in another otherwise disappointing NBC evening. On Fox, Bones 2.8 was up a touch from last week but could hit a TRUE season low with all of its drama competition out of the picture.
  • ABC went the specials route, with Santa Claus is Comin' to Town down a tick from last year but CMA Country Christmas way up from last year's Monday telecast (1.4).
