Chuck Returns With Uptick in Ratings

http://tvbythenumbers.com/2010/03/02/tv-ratings-back-to-fourth-place-for-nbc-big-numbers-for-the-bachelor-and-the-big-bang-theory/43503?utm_campaign=WP-TWITTER&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitter

Chuck averaged 6.7 million viewers and a 2.4/6 in the demos. That's a healthy increase from the last new episode 3 weeks ago. House was in repeat for FOX, but everything else was original.

Ever since Chuck debuted on NBC, NBC has not been able to find a show that fits well with Chuck. I don't know why NBC thought Heroes was a good fit with Chuck, but that did not prove to be true this season. LO has a totally different viewership, and that shows in its demo. The demo for LO is much older, hence why LO has a higher viewership number but dropped in the 18-49 demos.

The good thing about last night's ratings is that we probably have seen a floor, but we'll know more for sure next week. Next week will have all originals so we may see a slight drop in the ratings. However, the following week, HIMYM will be in repeat and ABC will be airing a 20/20 special, which should help Chuck out.

Things are looking good for Chuck.
