Wheel of Fortune 7.6 - down a tick
Jeopardy 6.2 - down a couple ticks
Family Feud 3.1 - down a tick, seeing a pattern?
Millionaire 2.6 - down a tick, I told you there was a pattern
Not the greatest week but hardly a disaster. Supposedly, "people using television" levels were down in the week due to unseasonably warm weather. We blame global warming, as a certain political pundit likes to say.
When TV by the Numbers puts up their top 25 syndie list, I'll post the viewership averages. But you knew that already, didn't you? Hey, they got the list up: Wheel of Fortune 12.1 million (weekend repeat 5.9 million), Jeopardy 9.7 million, Family Feud 4.6 million. Meredith just missed.
Meanwhile, Wipeout continues its ominous descent. The latest ABC run on February 2 tied a season low with a 1.8 18-49 rating and 6.0 million viewers. Yeah, it's up against American Idol right now, but the numbers were soft from the start of the season. If Who's Still Standing couldn't keep its place on woeful NBC with a 1.7 18-49 rating, I wonder how long Wipeout will hang around ABC with 1.8.
UPDATE: Douglas posted the GSN viewer numbers for the January 30-February 5 week. Overall averages were 310K/229K viewers prime time/total day. Dancing With the Stars continued to bomb but some old reliables like Deal or No Deal and Family Feud delivered.
