Primetime Ratings, Sunday January 15, 2012

Tonight was a night of interesting episodes including the premiere of Napoleon Dynamite on FOX. Whereas it pulled in 9.5 Million viewers, it was a show to fill in the time slot for the evening. With a lot of TV shows to fill the slot, this is not the first time where the premiere showed a little promise and it won't be the last. Many other shows aired along with it. Along with Napolean Dynamite, Once Upon a Time racked in a lot of viewers again and it shows that this series isn't going anywhere at anytime soon. With the uncertainty as to whether Pan Am is getting renewed or not, with 3.29 million viewers, the series isn;t showing promise for the next season at all. Now, to the List!
