Spotted Ratings, Friday 3/16/12


WHAT MATTERS:
  • With most of the rest of the big four sitting out the original entertainment evening, ABC dominated with Shark Tank, Primetime: What Would You Do? and 20/20. The first two were each up by 0.3 from last week.
  • CBS had a great night with March Madness, as the huge Lehigh upset over Duke was up about 50% over the year-ago game. Both games did much better than the Thursday offerings.
  • Nikita is one of those CW shows that has been getting the same two ratings all season (either 0.5 or 0.6 for each of the previous 15 originals), so dropping to a new low 0.4 seems notable.
