Ratings: steady as they go

Not much change for syndicated game shows as February sweeps got under way. For the week of January 28-February 3, they held steady at or near their season-high levels. TVNewsCheck brings the okay news...

Wheel of Fortune 7.8 - flat at a season high
Jeopardy 6.9 - down a tick from last week's season high
Family Feud 5.3 - up a couple ticks to just shy of a season high
Millionaire 2.6 - flat at a season high
Let's Ask America - a 1.9 four-week average in its metered markets, which is up nicely from its debut week in September
Baggage 1.1 - flat and a distant last, poor Jerry never gets to join in any reindeer games

TV by the Numbers has all sorts of viewership averages this week: Wheel of Fortune 12.3 million (weekend repeat 6.4 million), Jeopardy 10.7 million (weekend repeat 4.7 million), Family Feud 8.0 million, Millionaire 3.5 million. Very acceptable numbers all around.

Douglas Pucci posts GSN's numbers for February 4-10. The network bounced back from an off week with 340K/271K viewership averages prime time/total day. Steve Harvey's Family Feud dominated, of course, but a few other shows are starting to sneak into the top twenty-five.
