NEW YORK -- Fox and NBC tied for the demographic win in primetime, while CBS won in viewership during the last week of the 2006-07 TV season, Nielsen Media Research said Tuesday.
Fox got the week started Monday with the early premieres of "Prison Break" (7.5 million viewers, 3.3 rating/9 share) and the new "K-Ville" (8.9 million, 3.3/8). Both shows won their hours, with the main 8 p.m. competition being NBC's "Deal or No Deal" (11.7 million, 3.1/9) and 9 p.m. a repeat of CBS' "Two and a Half Men" (10.8 million, 3.2/8) and a new "The Singing Bee" (7.8 million 2.8/7) on NBC. "Deal" was the night's top show in viewers.
A two-hour "The Biggest Loser" (7.9 million, 3.4/9) on NBC and CBS' finale of "Big Brother" (8.7 million, 3.4/9) were the big winners Tuesday, while two episodes of ABC's "Just for Laughs" (with 8:30 p.m. averaging 7 million viewers and a 2.2/6) and CBS' "Power of 10" (7.8 million, 1.9/6) couldn't keep up. Neither could a two-hour ABC News special, "Elvis: Viva Las Vegas" (6.4 million, 1.8/5).
Wednesday went to Fox thanks to the premiere of "Back to You" (9.5 million, 3.1/10) that beat CBS' "Kid Nation" (9.4 million, 3.1/9) head-to-head as well as "Deal" (9.9 million, 2.5/8) and the CW's "America's Next Top Model" (5.2 million, 2.5/8).
