NBC's original Christmas movie, The Year Without a Santa Claus,, went a night without many viewers in D-FW.
The two-hour presentation, starring John Goodman, attracted just 128,520 ho-ho-homes Monday, finishing third from 8 to 10 p.m. behind CBS and ABC. The Peacock's preceding Deal or No Deal, hosted by Ho-Ho-Howie Mandel, drew 226,100 homes to rank as prime-time's most-watched show of the night.
News-wise, NBC5 scored twin wins at 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. in both total viewers and with 25-to-54-year-olds, the prime target audience for advertisers. Belo8 won in both measurements at 5 and 6 p.m.
In the battle among late night entertainment shows, Ch. 33's 11 p.m. to midnight repeats of Friends and Sex & the City again beat the big-monied network talk shows in homes and among 18-to-49-year-olds, the preferred advertiser audience for non-news programming.
At 11:30 p.m., Sex & the City drew 80,920 homes and 54,000 viewers in the 18-to-49-demo, handily beating the first half-hour of NBC's runnerup Late Night with Conan O'Brien (45,220 and 43,500).
