Broadcast TV Ratings for Monday, March 10, 2008 March 11, 2008

CBS, with a mostly repeat filled lineup, managed to take a strong first place finish on the evening.

Elsewhere on the evening, NBC secured a second place finish with solid outings from Deal or No Deal and Medium.

On Fox, the series premiere of Canterbury’s Law got off to a poor start with the key A18-49 demo, with the series failing to crack a 2.0 (receiving only a 1.7 in the demo).  Meanwhile, the time slot premiere of New Amsterdam (the third episode of the series) managed to hold on nicely to its most recently aired episode last Thursday.

Rounding out the rest of the evening, ABC’s October Road ended its season on a low, as it was off by nearly 50% among viewers and over 50% among adults 18-49 from last season’s finale, while The CW’s Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious continues to fare poorly.
