CBS won the night as usual. Deal or No Deal kept NBC competitive. Smackdown, one of the The CW’s consistently strong performers, was good enough to give the network a rare fourth place. Fox, meanwhile, has been struggling to find something to work in the Friday night slot, having cancelled their other reality show Nashville for low ratings, which makes me wonder whether Next Great American Band ever had a chance to begin with. Regardless, it’s back to the drawing board.
