For Saturday, March 12, 2016 (Posted on March 13, 2016)
NBC #1 Saturday as ‘Dateline’ top program.
NBC
The Peacock Network powered through with ‘Dateline’ and that was enough.
8P ‘Dateline‘ finished with an average 5.628 million viewers.
10P ‘Saturday Night Live‘ rerun finished with an average 3.222 million viewers.
CBS
The Tiffany Network got tarnished Saturday night.
8P ‘NCIS‘ rerun finished with an average 2.909 million viewers just about the average it did all day in a Ducky marathon all day Saturday on USA. Bad programming timing. Remarkably it was the 5th biggest draw on broadcast Saturday.
9P ‘Criminal Minds‘ rerun finished with an average 3.661 million viewers.
10P ‘48 Hours‘ finished with an average 4.935 million viewers.
ABC
The Alphabet Network and another pro basketball evening.
8P ‘NBA Countdown’ finished with an average 1.971 million viewers.
830P ‘NBA Oklahoma City vs San Antonio’ finished with an average 2.434 million viewers as the Spurs won 93-85, for the 41st straight victory on their home court, third longest in NBA history.

Today In Communication History
On this date in 1972, ‘The Merv Griffin Show’ debuted in syndication for Metromedia Television.
NOTE: We have entered a new era in screen ratings. Nielsen is expanding its sample of TV viewers to include new
homes with meters that record the channel being watched—but not the demographics of the people watching. That will be estimated using data modeling and an algorithm Nielsen has developed, and added to the current sample that does include people meters that measure demos. The Panel Expansion (NPX), in which 12,900 households have been added to the national sample, is at the center of this change. The household ratings in these homes are measured by meters on each television in the home, while the demographic ratings in these homes will be assigned by Nielsen using a statistical algorithm. This is the first time since 1987 that homes in the national sample are not equipped with PeopleMeters, which measure both the program viewed and the people watching it.
March Madness
Mobile Research
US Paid Search ROI Seen Increasing On Smartphones
Smartphones’ share of US paid search spending rose to 20% in Q4 2015, per Adobe. With an almost 50% year-over-year increase in revenue-per-click in Q4, smartphones also turned in a strong quarter in terms of ROI, with the 31% year-over-year increase in contrast to a relatively flat ROI performance for computers and tablets. Adobe notes that the increase in smartphone transactions led to more competitive bidding from advertisers, with smartphone costs-per-click up 9% year-over-year in Q4. The increase in paid search engagement on smartphones comes at the same time as another report showing that email response rates are also growing on mobile devices.
