RATINGS ARE IN: ANIMATION DOMINATION RATINGS SOAR FOR 1/7/13

The ratings are in and The Simpsons enjoyed its best overnight ratings in what has to be a number of seasons taking in a 4.4 rating according to Deadline.com which helped FOX win the night in overall ratings as compared to NBC, ABC, and CBS. Here are some of the other numbers according to the article:

After that, The Simpsons (4.4/11) was back with its first new show in three weeks as was Bob’s Burgers (3.1/8). (Three weeks ago, both saw pre-emptions due to the Sandy Hook school shooting memorial service in Newtown, which led to 1.9/5 and 1.2/3 ratings, respectively.) Compared with the last uninterrupted airings December 9, last night’s The Simpsons was up 29% and Bob’s Burgers was up 48%, the latter’s highest rating since it debut two years ago. Family Guy (3.5/8) was up 40% from its last original show two weeks ago as was American Dad (2.8/7). With an average audience of 13.676 million, Fox won the night in total viewers and adults 18-49.

Yep, look at that number for Bob’s Burgers, eh?? With strong numbers like this it will be interesting to see how the numbers add up the next couple weeks with The Cleveland Show added. Strangely enough, On the week of January 20th there are NO new episodes of Animation Domination shows. Not sure why FOX if doing this, but who knows?
