NBC's ROCK CENTER WITH BRIAN WILLIAMS Debuts With Modest Ratings

Initial ratings for the debut of NBC's ROCK CENTER WITH BrIan Williams were modest, according to the Hollywood Reporter.  At a recent press conference, NBC News president Steve Capus said "We're not doing this as a ratings play. We're not kidding ourselves, we know it's going to take some time to get established."

ROCK CENTER replaced the recently cancelled THE PLAYBOY CLUB on NBC.  Compared to that show, the news show was down 38 percent in the demo for the 10 p.m. time period. THE SING OFF, Rock Center's lead-in program, posted its lowest ratings to date.

Featuring anchor and managing editor BrIan Williams and his all-star cast of correspondents Harry Smith, Kate Snow, Ted Koppel, Meredith Vieira, Natalie Morales, Richard Engel, Dr. Nancy Snyderman, Matt Lauer and Ann Curry, "Rock Center with BrIan Williams" airs Mondays at 10 p.m.

Broadcast live from the historic Studio 3B in Rockefeller Center, the weekly, hour-long newsmagazine is built around the week's most provocative events, compelling coverage, and newsmaker interviews. Williams and NBC's trusted global news division take viewers deeper into the world's most talked-about stories - and raise the curtain on stories begging to be told.
