Ratings: syndies rebound from turkey overload

As always, Thanksgiving week was soft for syndie game shows. So there was a big bounce back in the week of November 26-December 2. I should say the top three bounced back. There wasn't much happening for the bottom two. TV News Check has the household ratings...

Jeopardy 6.4 - up nine ticks from turkey week and into first place
Family Feud 6.3 - also up nine ticks for a second-place tie
Wheel of Fortune 6.3 - another nine tick rise, it's the thing this week
Millionaire 1.7 - flat
Funny You Should Ask 0.5 - flat, a big surprise

As I said in a comment on a previous entry, America Says has averaged around 450K viewers for its last three prime time runs (December 5-7). Maybe GSN has finally found a way to lessen their reliance on Harvey Feud.

Overall, GSN's prime time numbers perked up from the previous week. The network drew 376K/255K viewers prime time/total day for the week of December 3-9. GSN ranked 36th and 32nd in the windows.
