Ratings: summer blahs

The summertime blues hit syndicated game shows, which were all flat or down in the week of August 20-26. Viewers had better things to do than watch reruns and all the rest of the usual summer TV fare. TVNewsCheck brings the forgettable news...

Wheel of Fortune 5.6 - down a couple ticks
Jeopardy 4.7 - down three ticks
Family Feud 3.2 - flat
Millionaire 2.2 - down a tick

Meredith slipped off the top 25 syndie list at TV by the Numbers. The viewership averages for the other three shows: Wheel of Fortune 8.7 million, Jeopardy 7.1 million, Family Feud 4.7 million. We've seen better numbers.

GSN continued its decent ratings in the week of August 27-September 2, buoyed by American Bible Challenge. The prime time/total day viewership averages were 386K/280K, according to TVNewser.
