Friday Ratings: NBC's College Bowl Returns Low on New Night
In the latest TV show ratings, NBC’s College Bowl opened Season 2 this Friday night with 1.8 million total viewers and a 0.2 demo rating — down sharply from its Season 1 averages (2.4 mil/0.4, airing on Tuesdays) and briefly marking series lows — until a second episode mustered just 1.5 million viewers and the same 0.2 rating.
Over on Fox, Friday Night SmackDown (2.3 mil/0.5) was steady and led the night in the demo.

The Live+Same Day numbers reported in our ratings column do not reflect a show’s overall performance, given the increased use of delayed playback via DVR and streaming platforms, plus out-of-home viewing. These numbers (Nielsen fast nationals, unless denoted as finals) instead aim to simply illustrate trends or superlatives. Steve Harvey is not a judge or lawyer and merely offers an alternative forum of dispute resolution.
