CBS's Big Brother (0.86) returned in impeccable shape on Thursday night, up about 41% in the Adults 18-49 demographic from last year's start (0.61). But the results were not nearly as encouraging on ABC as Celebrity Family Feud (0.31) dropped by 26% from its year-ago premiere (0.42), and Press Your Luck (0.25, -17%) also dealt with a sizable decline. On NBC, Surviving Earth (0.25, +0.02) was up from last week. Fox aired repeats of The 1% Club (0.30) and Best Medicine (0.17), while the CW went with reruns of Trivial Pursuit (0.06/0.05). Key: (P) = premiere. (R) = repeat.
