Now that the 2011-2012 TV season is essentially at an end, I will not be posting the nightly overall ratings for the major networks each morning.

I will, however, cover the ratings either bi-weekly or weekly for the major networks based on the new and/or returning shows that will be back over the summer. The ratings for all cable shows and made-for-TV movies will still be posted once a month as normal.

The daily ratings reports will be back this fall at the start of the 2012-2013 TV season.
