Ratings: Last Week Miami Binged on Sports, Telenovelas, and Some Music

0

The latest weekly Nielsen ratings from the Sun Sentinel’s Johnny Diaz are out. Sports, an overdose of telenovelas, and some music made up local TV’s top 10 most watched programs list for the week ending December 8.

South Florida tuned in to watch the Miami Heat play some other team on SunSports, pushing the local sports network to the top spot with 221,000 viewers. But the real news here is how telenovela Marido en Alquiler on WSCV cleaned house. The show has 5 of the 10 spots, grabbing as many as 198,000 viewers, and two of its episodes split 4th place with NBC’s Sound of Music on WTVJ.

WPEC Meteorologist Jeff Berardelli on Why He left WFOR

The Sun Sentinel’s Johnny Diaz had a short Q&A with new WPEC meteorologist Jeff Berardelli where he asked him about his recent move away from WFOR. Jumping from the 16th largest TV market to the 38th is usually not the trajectory most on-air personalities take with their career but Berardelli says he made the move to WPEC because he “wanted a job where I could really help make a difference in the weather department” and that his position at CBS12 requires him to be more creative. While at WFOR Berardelli says he was “more of a worker than someone who had the ability to change things.”

If I were to consult the non-existent SFLTV crystall ball, I think it would say that we’re looking at the next WPEC chief meteorologist.

3

Suncoast Emmy award hardware was given out on November 23rd at the Westin Diplomat in Hollywood. America Teve, WPTV, and WSCV were the most nominated stations locally. As you can see below two of those stations took the most awards home. WPTV won 55% of its nominations while America Teve 37.9% both winning 11 awards.

WPTV, the most watched TV station in all of Florida, won the Station Excellence category with GM Steve Wasserman and station manager Lloyd Bucher each taking an Emmy home. WPTV news director Mike Garber won an Emmy in the News Excellence category.

WFOR won an Emmy for CBS 4 This Morning, and in a not so unexpected twist it seems they replaced Josh Benson with Michelle Gillen. Reporter David Sutta also won for On-Camera Talent and a feature story

WSVN won an Emmy for their Sandy Hook coverage with 10pm newscast producer James Austin, Belkys Nerey and Craig Stevens.

WTVJ editor Jim Gravina won in the Editor-Short form category. I could be wrong but I think he’s the guy with the chops behind the shiny, cool promos you see airing on NBC 6. Christopher Clark won in Editor – Sports category. Myriam Masihy, Sandra Esquivel, Pedro Cancio won for their investigative report on beach bike theft.

WPLG Emmys went to Trent Aric, and reporter Ben Kennedy, along with producers Aliana Perez, Matthew Fuhrman, Amanda Stanley
