NBC RENEWALS
NBC has decided to renew The Office and “My Name is Earl” for next year’s 2007/2008 season.
“The Office” is delivering a 4.2 rating, 11 share in 18-49 and 8.7 million viewers through the first 16 weeks of the 2006-07 season and has matched or built on its 18-49 lead-in from “The Office” with every original telecast this season. “The Office” has improved the Thursday 8:30-9 half-hour for NBC this season by 20 percent versus year-ago averages in 18-49.
“My Names Is Earl” is averaging a 4.0 rating, 11 share in 18-49 and 9.5 million viewers through the opening 16 weeks of the 2006-07 television season. “Earl” has improved the Thursday 8-8:30 p.m. half-hour for NBC this season by 38 percent versus year-ago results in 18-49.
In layman’s terms: Both shows are kicking butt in the ratings an NBC wants to keep them on the air. Why they have not yet renewed Scrubs and 30 Rock, I am not sure.
Fingers crossed!
