Wednesday night had the finale of the fall edition of Survivor. It was up three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. While that was no improvement from last week, it was closely behind last fall and spring's 2.6 demo result. It was another pretty consistent season for the long running reality show. A live reunion show was solid at 10pm as well. NBC got little traction from the season premiere of annual holiday entry The Sing-Off, but this will be acceptable for a holiday run. NBC got the same demo result from Michael Buble's Christmas special, though Buble did better with total viewers. Finally, the finale of Hell's Kitchen capped a very disappointing season for the show. It was down three tenths in viewers an even in the demo from last week's 8pm edition. It will not be on the spring and might be better suited for a summer run.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Survivor (CBS)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Hell's Kitchen (FOX)
