Reuters reports that viewership is up at three of the four major broadcast television networks this season. Only third-place ABC — with 11 new dramas and comedies — has seen a decline in ratings.
Major points from the story:
“Glee” and “House” are doing well for FOX, the only network up in all demographics and categories.
First-place CBS has 13 of the Top 20 programs.
NBC ratings are up but network, whose move of Jay Leno to the 9 p.m. prime-time hour from late night has drawn only about 5 million viewers weekly, is still in last place.
