Ratings: Feud jumps in new slots

New season, new timeslots mean nice ratings for Family Feud. Steve Harvey's little survey-fest saw a very good bounce in the week of September 10-16. Most of the syndie game shows didn't have much to complain about, in fact. TVNewsCheck brings the generally pleasant news...

Wheel of Fortune 5.9 - up a tick
Jeopardy 4.8 - up three ticks
Family Feud 3.9 - up seven ticks, better living through better timeslots
Millionaire 2.0 - ouch, down three ticks

As you might expect, Meredith slipped out of TV by the Numbers' top 25 list. The viewership averages for the other three shows: Wheel of Fortune 8.9 million, Jeopardy 7.0 million, Family Feud 5.5 million. Next week the soulmates get their season debut numbers.

TVNewser's cable ranker says that GSN enjoyed another prosperous week. For September 17-23 the network averaged 460K/283K viewers prime time/total day. GSN ranked 36th and 38th in the windows.
