TV NIELSENS 1970s: (L-R: 78-79/79-80)
The ABC network was riding high in 1978-79. Two purple blocks show lost viewers, but One Day At A Time remained in the top 20. Eight Is Enough (red) remained steady. Three's Company (dark green) was riding high while its spin-off, The Ropers, had its highest viewership. As the 1970s close out, ABC's two shows were the only chink in a solid CBS domination. Taxi and Happy Days (blue) hit their high and low points, respectively. Both Charlie's Angels and Barney Miller (purple) ratings were down over the previous season.
