GRIMM clawed its way to the top ratings spot for a scripted program on Friday, Oct. 12th. The detailed ratings for NBC are below:
At 8 p.m. ET, an encore telecast of "The Voice" (1.1/4 in 18-49, 3.5 million viewers overall) delivered NBC's top non-sports 18-49 rating in the time period since March 2 and delivered the network's biggest overall audience for non-sports programming in the hour since May 18. From its first half-hour to its second, the "Voice" rebroadcast grew in every key category, including a gain of 20 percent in 18-49 rating (to a 1.2 from a 1.0).
At 9 p.m. ET, "Grimm" (1.5/6 in 18-49, 4.9 million viewers overall) captured the #1 rating of the night for a scripted program on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox, and ranked #1 among those networks for the hour in adults 18-49.
