Tuesday Results:
- Due to feed patterns across the time zones last night, fast-affiliate ratings for NBC’s Tuesday programming are subject to significant revision. Note in particular that “Biggest Loser” generally aired from 9-11 p.m. in the Pacific time zone, with the “Decision 2012” coverage running at 8 p.m. in many of those markets.
- While fast-affiliate ratings are not reliable for NBC’s programming last night, from 8-10 p.m. ET, “The Biggest Loser 13” averaged a 4.1 rating, 7 share in metered-market households, up 8 percent versus last week’s 3.8/6 in those markets.
- While fast-affiliate ratings are not reliable for NBC’s programming last night, at 10 p.m. ET, the NBC News Special “Decision 2012” averaged a 2.1 rating, 4 share in metered-market households.
