Scoreboard for Tuesday Dec 11 NBC CBS ABC FOX CW

rating/Share: Adults 18-49 3.0/8 2.1/6 2.6/7 2.8/8 1.0/3

On a night dominated by repeats, NBC won when it came to both viewers and the 18-49 demographic on the strength of unspcripted shows, Deal or No Deal and The Biggest Loser.  Repeats and unscripted shows -- a trend we need to get used to.  CBS ran back-to-back new episoded of Cane.  If the hope was doing so would increase the show's following, it didn't work out so well.  On the other hand, if the goal was to use up episodes as quickly as possible, and just be done with it...  Last night's show detail:

    An NCIS repeat easily was the most viewed show of the night.

    Yet another fact you’re unlikely to read in the entertainment press coverage or in the Hollywood Trades.
