Numbers of Interest - Television Ratings for Thursday 12/10/09

CBS easily won the night with Survivor (4.2), CSI (3.9), and The Mentalist (3.6).

NBC was next with Community (2.2), Parks and Recreation (2.1), The Office (4.2), 30 Rock (3.2), and The Jay Leno Show (1.6). Community and Parks are steady at 2.1-2.2 which are bad for other networks, but decent for NBC. They both will be on the bubble in the spring, but I think Community will have a leg up if it becomes a head to head competition between the two.

Fox was very close with Bones (3.1) and Fringe (2.3). Bones broke 3 for the first time in a long time which I think was attributed to Zooey Deschanel. Fringe was back down after last week's 2.5 so it's not looking great right now.

ABC finished a distant last with repeats of FlashForward (1.0), Grey’s Anatomy (1.4), and Private Practice (1.2) proving once again that hits shows don't necessarily repeat well.
