Spotted Ratings, Friday 2/3/11 (FINALS)


WHAT MATTERS:
  • NBC debuted season three of the unscripted Who Do You Think You Are? tied at its series low levels already (and down a tick from last season's premiere). But it still improved the timeslot for NBC vs. previous occupant Chuck. The show also seemed to have no effect on fellow unscripted shows Shark Tank and Kitchen Nightmares, the latter of which pulled ahead of the sharks for the first time in three meetings this season.
  • The four 9/8c dramas were all simultaneously original for the first time in nearly two months. A couple upward finals adjustments made the picture a bit rosier, but Grimm still tied a low and CSI: NY and Fringe were both still below average. In the ridiculous world of analyzing CW ratings, Supernatural was adjusted up from a season low to a season high.
  •  Unscripted alternative Primetime: What Would You Do? also took a hit at 9/8c, but it joined the aforementioned Shark Tank and another strong 20/20 to help ABC impressively tie for the Friday lead.
