Garth And CBS-TV Own The Friday Night Ratings

Hollywood Reporter:  CBS won the holiday weekend Friday with its two-hour Garth Brooks special.

The singer's Live From Las Vegas averaged a 1.8 rating among adults 18-49, easily locking up broadcast TV's best showing of the night.

Reruns didn't do as well.  Hoops & Yoyo Ruin Christmas (0.4 adults) and The Elf on the Shelf (0.6 adults) were both down significantly from last year's showings.

CBS took a 1.4 adults rating and 6.7 million viewers for the night.
