Tuesday 12/20/11 – CBS ties NBC for First, Who’s Still Standing Week Two Decent

With the holidays approaching, there was little original content on last night.  The only new broadcast program to air was NBC’s latest game show, Who’s Still Standing (1.74 A18-49 Live Rtg) at 8pm, which grew 20% among A18-49 from its premiere last week, due to little competition. A two hour holiday special repeat of Saturday Night Live: A Very Gilly Christmas (1.91) followed, out-delivering its lead-in by 11% in the demo.  NBC tied with CBS for first place, as the latter network aired encores of NCIS, NCIS: LA and Unforgettable.

Falling behind Univision and TBS with its marathon of Big Bang Theory, all other broadcasters aired repeats of their respective Tuesday night schedules.
