Primetime Ratings, Friday, 1/31/14

 

 

ABC won the 18-49 demo race, while CBS drew more total viewers.

'Last Man Standing' rose a tenth to a 1.5, a season high for the Tim Allen comedy. In a mild shocker, 'The Neighbors' shot up three tenths to a 1.1, the struggling sitcom's best number since its season premiere. 'Shank Tank' dipped a single tenth to a 2.1, easily winning the night yet again. '20/20' fell two tenths to a 1.7, but still won 10 p.m.

'Undercover Boss' returned from a short layoff to the tune of a 1.7, up slightly from its last new outing. 'Hawaii Five-0' also returned up, rising three tenths to a 1.8. 'Blue Bloods' also increased, bumping up two tenths to a 1.6.

Over on FOX, the recently renewed 'Bones' dropped two tenths to a 1.6, losing the title of Friday's highest rated scripted series to the aforementioned 'Five-0.' 'Enlisted's huge jump upward last week is looking like a fluke, as the freshman comedy fell back down to a 0.8. Lead-out 'Raising Hope' also dropped, earning a 0.6.

Finally, NBC's only new program of the night was 'Dateline,' which dipped two tenths to a 1.2. It should be noted that the Peacock once again found itself coming in behind Spanish-language network Univision in the Friday ratings battle. As for The CW, 'The Carrie Diaries' matched last week's 0.3.
