ABC repeats of 'Thorn Birds' all in top 25

By FRED ROTHENBERG AP Television Writer NEW YORK (AP) - “The Thorn Birds,” the ABC miniseries about forbidden love between a young woman and a priest soared in reruns last week, as many viewers apparently agreed with the network’s promo: “Once is not enough.” Last week’s three installments of “The Thorn Birds” all finished in the Top 25, attracting more viewers in repeat than every regular ABC series it pre-empted. The No. 2 miniseries of all time when it was broadcast nearly two years ago, “The Thorn Birds” tied “Shogun” as the No. 3 repeat miniseries behind “Roots” and “Scruples.” The success of “The Thorn Birds” and the highest rating in the four-year run of “Dynasty” led ABC to its best performance of the season. Still, ABC finished behind CBS, while “Dynasty” was barely beaten by “Dallas” as the top show for the weekof Jan. 7-13. According to A.C. Nielsen Co. figures released Tuesday, CBS won its 14th week out of 16 this season, averaging an 18.1 rating in prime time. ABC had a 17.3 and NBC averaged a 16.2. The three-network total rating of 51.4 was the season’s highest. For the 16-week season, CBS is averaging a 17.2 to NBC’s 16.1 and ABC’s 15.1. A rating equals 1 percent of the nation’s 84.9 million TV homes watching, on average, a given minute of a network’s prime-time schedule. “The Thorn Birds” was on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday (three of ABC’s weakest nights), but it skipped Wednesday, ABC’s strongest night, when “Dynasty” turned in a

Nielsen top 10 NEW YORK (AP) - Ratings compiled by the A.C. Nielsen Co. for the week of Jan. 7-13: 1. “Dallas,” CBS, 27.8, 23.6 million homes. 2. “Dynasty,” ABC, 27.7, 23.5 million homes. 3. “The Cosby Show,” NBC, 25.4,21.6 million homes. 4. “60 Minutes,” CBS, 25.2, 21.4 million homes. 5. “The A-Team,” NBC, 22.6, 19.2 million homes. 6. “Family Ties,” NBC, 22.3, 18.9 million homes. 7. “Falcon Crest,” CBS, 21.8, 18.5 million homes. 7. “Murder, She Wrote,” CBS, 21.8.18.5 million homes. 9. “Crazy Like a Fox,” CBS, 21.6,18.3 million homes. 10. “Kate & Allie,” CBS, 21.4, 18.2 million homes.

27.7 rating. CBS’ “Dallas” had a 27.8. For the season, “Dynasty” is the top program, averaging a 25.4 to “Dallas’” 25.3. CBS’ Sunday night lineup of “60 Minutes,” “Murder, She Wrote,” “Crazy Like a Fox” and “Trapper John, M.D.” (No. 20) is formidable. Last Sunday, these shows averaged a 22.0 rating to a 14.6 and a 14.2 for the competitive programming on NBC and ABC, respectively. Two CBS discards from Sunday night, and ‘‘The Jeffersons,” fared poorly in their first shots at Tuesday night. “The Jeffersons” was 60th and “Alice” was 62nd out of 66 prime-time shows. The “CBS Evening News” was the top-rated newscast with a 14.9 rating. ABC’s “World News Tonight” and the “NBC Nightly News” tied for second with a 12.5 rating.
