It was a rough night for the broadcast networks on 12/12/12 as nearly everything was down. On ABC, The Middle started things off down seven tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo for a season low. It was followed by The Neighbors which was down a million viewers and three tenths in the demo. This is the first big drop it's taken since the second episode so it'll be interesting to see how it returns in January. At 9pm, Modern Family was down 1.1 million viewers and half a demo point from its last airing, tying a season low. The night concluded with the annual Barbara Walters 10 Most Fascinating People special which was slightly below last year.

Over on CBS, Survivor started down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. Criminal Minds was one of the few shows to rise as it was up seven tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo for its best performance since October 24. At 10pm, CSI was down a huge 2.5 million viewers and four tenths in the demo from its last airing two weeks ago. It's closer to Christmas so that might explain some of it but this was a mammoth drop and it was coming when Chicago Fire was down big on NBC too. 

On NBC, Whitney was another one of the few shows to go up. It was down a tenth in viewers but up a tenth in the demo. It earned three additional episodes today. Night three of Take it All did not air after The Voice and took a major nosedive as it was down a full demo point from Monday and Tuesday. Guess it's not the next great holiday game show. At 10pm, Chicago Fire was hit hard as it tumbled a huge 2.3 million viewers and half a demo point. The 10pm hour was hurt a lot this week. On FOX, The X Factor was down half a million viewers and a tenth in the demo.
