The Big Bang Theory Ratings a Season Low; Community a Series Low

Geek favorites The Big Bang Theory and Community got hammered in the ratings last night, dipping substantially from their performances last week and hitting season lows–in Community‘s case, a series low–in the ratings.The Big Bang Theory still won the night, drawing 15.7 million viewers for a 4.5 rating and a 15 share in the key 18-49 demographic, but that win was barely eked out over Person of Interest, which drew 14.6 million viewers (though with a 3.3/8, it’s clear their viewers skewed older).With CBS airing a number of college basketball divisional tournaments, their week’s scripted programming has been haphazard and prone to being pre-empted, which could help explain The Big Bang Theory‘s trouble; it was down nearly 20% from last week.
