These are Nielsen ratings for each Fri night in the 1997-98 TV season.

When known, an ``(R)'' denotes a repeat. The ratings are given in the form ``[ranking:rating]''

Each ratings point corresponds to 1 percent of the 98 million TV households in the U.S. Thus a 10.0 rating is equivalent to 9.8 million households.
