50 Top-Rated TV Shows Of This Season


The 2013-14 TV season for the broadcast nets ends this week — and no surprise, football continues to reign supreme for NBC. Here are the top 50-plus shows (because lots are tied) among adults 18-49 for the TV season that began Sept. 23. If you are over 49, you don’t exist for many advertisers, even though you have a lot more money to spend than a typical 21-year-old. The top-rated comedy is “The Big Bang Theory” (above). The top-rated new show is “The Blacklist,” which is on my “Lemonlist” of programs-to-catch-up-on. It’s a little bit of a cheat that NBC gets to put Sunday Night Football in this line-up, and all the other networks that broadcast football don’t, even though all of us who watch “Amazing Race” and “The Good Wife” know to our supreme annoyance that CBS’s Sunday football broadcast frequently bleeds into prime-time.
