Ratings: syndies slip a little

September 25-October 5 was a pretty blah week for syndie game shows. There were little losses here and there but nothing major. The race at the top is very close. The race for last place isn't close at all. TV News Check has the household ratings...

Family Feud 6.0 - down a tick
Jeopardy 5.8 - flat, which is good for this week
Wheel of Fortune 5.7 - down a tick
Millionaire 1.6 - flat
Funny You Should Ask 0.4 - down a tick and just about invisible

GSN got some much needed good news with better numbers for October 2-8. 330K/242K viewers prime time/total day. The network ranked 43rd and 35th in the windows. Maybe all that Harvey Feud and Cash Cab is starting to pay off.

Not exactly ratings news, but I'll call it "audience response" news. A few posts back I noted that Buzzr was holding off on its schedule for the October 16 week. I figured that Monty's marathons had made the phones ring, so the diginet might be mulling a return of Let's Make a Deal.

Close but not quite. Monty's Beat the Clock comes back to weekday prime time starting next Monday.
