Here are a few other Nielsen ratings results of note from the just-concluded November sweeps:
***The 7 to 9 a.m. portion of Fox's Good Day ran a close second to ABC's Good Morning America, but beat all three competing network a.m. shows among the two principal advertiser target audiences -- 18-to-49-year-olds and 25-to-54-year-olds.
***KUVN's Spanish language Noticias 23 newscast ran fourth in total homes at 10 p.m., edging Fox4's local newscast by one-tenth of a rating point (2,436 homes). But it jumped to second place among the 25-to-54-year-old news target audience, trailing only Belo8 and running slightly ahead of both NBC5 and CBS11.
***The competitive 9 to 10 a.m. weekday slot found CBS11's Rachael Ray on top in total homes, followed closely by the third hour of NBC's Today and Belo8's homegrown Good Morning Texas. But Today led the pack among 18-to-49-year-olds, the key advertiser demographic for entertainment programming. GMT slipped to fourth, behind Live with Regis & Kelly on Fox4 and RR.
***The Oprah Winfrey Show on Belo remained in first at 4 p.m., comfortably outpointing Fox4's syndicated Judge Judy in both total homes and with 18-to-49-year-olds.
***At 6:30 p.m., Wheel of Fortune on CBS11 continued to roll in the total homes Nielsens, soundly beating runnerup Entertainment Tonight on Belo8. It was much closer among 18-to-49-year-olds, with Wheel nipping ET by a scant one-tenth of a rating point.
***The CBS Evening News with Katie Couric drew closer to the NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams in the fight for second place at 5:30 p.m. among the three network newscasts. It trailed by just 17,049 total homes, with ABC's World News with Charles Gibson still the clear frontrunner.
