IFox Broadcasting is totally cool to Nielsen race

Associated Press Writer_
[ LOS ANGELES (AP) — Fox
broadcasting won ugly, as they say
Jn sports, breaking into the top five
jn the ratings with TV’s most
boorish families, “The Simpsons”
|md the Bundys of “Married ...
^Vith Children.”
; “The Simpsons” was the No. 3
Show last week, and the equally
Srumpy but non-animated brood of
"‘Married ... With Children” was
No. 4, the A.C. Nielsen Co. said
Tuesday.
It was the first time in Fox’s
four-year history that it broke into
the top five, and the proud parents
were jubilant.
“We’re extremely excited about
this,” said Fox spokesman Michael
Peikoff.
Fox’s unprecedented ratings
were helped by the Big Three net-
works being knee-deep in reruns.
They also benefited from 10-
year-old Bart Simpson’s sawtooth
head blazoned across Rolling Stone
magazine, T-shirts and the pages of
news magazines.
But Fox’s victory was far from
sweeping. In overall ratings, NBC
was still the No. 1 network, receiv-
ing an average rating of 10.4. CBS
was second with 9.7 and ABC last
with 9.3. Each ratings point
represents 921,000 households.
In a top 10 where only one show
— “The Seinfeld Chronicles” on
NBC — was not a rerun, ABC’s
"Roseanne” was the top-rated
progfam. The wisecracking bar
crowd of NBC’s “Cheers” was No.
2.
NBC’s “The Cosby Show,”
which will face off against “The
Simpsons” in the fall, fell to fifth
place.
Here are the top 10 shows, their
network and rating:
“Roseafine,” ABC, 16.8;
“Cheers,” NBC, 16.7; “The
Simpsons,” Fox, 14.7; “Married ...
With Children,” Fox, 14.5; “The
Cosby Show,” NBC, 14.2; “A Dif-
ferent World” and “Empty Nest,”
lied, NBC, 14; “Coach," ABC,
13.8; “Designing Women,” CBS,
"The Golden Girls,” NBC, “The
Seinfeld Chronicles,” NBC, tied,
13.6. ^
There was no n6ws in the net-
work news wars. ABC remained
No. 1 by a wide margin with a 9.2
average. CBS had a 7.8 and NBC a
7.5.
Here are the prime-time TV
ratings as compiled by the A.C.
Nielsen Co. for the week of June
11-17. Top listings include the
week’s ranking, with full season-to-
date ranking in parentheses, rating
for the week, and total homes.

Children,” Fox, 14.5, 13.4 million
