‘Anchorwoman’ Tanks in First Outing

Published on August 23, 2007 | Email this article

A new reality series about a beauty queen hired to raise the ratings of a news program proved itself to be unpopular in its first outing. Fox’s Anchorwoman tied for fifth place with the CW in the 8 p.m. time slot, and finished just behind Univision, which has been struggling since La Fea Mas Bella went off the air earlier this summer, writes Media Life.

The show didn’t help its Bones lead-out at 9:00, which averaged a 1.1. Fox, which has led every week this summer among 18-49s, pulled a 1.0 for the night.
