Friday Final Nationals: Animated Reruns Give Adult Swim Prime Time Adults 18-34 Victory

The first Friday night of the summer was an uneventful one with reruns dominating every network. CBS led among total viewers (5.05 million) while NBC was No. 1 in adults 18-49 (0.7 rating/4 share) and adults 25-54 (1.0/4).

A lineup made entirely of repeat episodes of animated series, either formerly of or currently on the Fox network — “King of the Hill”, “The Cleveland Show”, “American Dad”, and “Bob’s Burgers” — helped give Adult Swim a Friday night win in adults 18-34 (0.47 rating from 8-11 p.m.).
