The network's Thursday lineup, "Dateline NBC" and a Princess Diana special paced the network to its widest margin of victory in 12 weeks, based on results issued Friday by Nielsen Media Research. Weekend viewing suffered due to the holiday, but the Aug. 31 special on Princess Diana and NBC's penultimate "Seinfeld" telecast provided strong numbers earlier in the week. ABC's "Dharma Greg" also continues to show promise in its new 8 p.m.

Wednesday time slot, as TBS Movie "All the Right that comedy and "The Drew Carey Show" both delivered their biggest audiences since May. The weak link for ABC appears to be the show sandwiched between them, "Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place." (Fox did provide somewhat stiffer competition Sept. 2 with "The Quick and the Dead," a movie featuring Leonardo DiCaprio. Both ABC and CBS aired college football in East Coast prime time last week, scoring only modest ratings; by contrast, CBS' overtime New York Jets-San Francisco 49ers pro game would have topped all programs had it been included in the rankings. -BRIAN LOWRY 9:30 a.m.
