The opening episode got the highest ratings of the seven, but was on the tail-end of the previous week when its 38 share pulled ABC into second place. Strong performances by all three networks last week put them back in their usual one-two-three slots, although ABC was up by about 2 ratings points, as were total network viewers. February is a "sweeps" month, one of four periods a year when local ratings determine affiliated stations' advertising rates. The networks typically load their schedules with special programming to help draw bigger audiences.

Mord said "Amerika" helped improve ABC's ratings by about 25 percent, boosted regular programming and gave the network a much-needed promotional platform. According to the A.C. Nielsen NBC won the week with an average rating of 18.2. CBS had a 16.6 and ABC 16.4. The season-to-date averages are: NBC 18.0; CBS 16.1; ABC 14.3.

CBS edged NBC in their back-and-forth battle for tops in news ratings. For the week ending Feb. 20, the "CBS Evening News" averaged a rating of 13.0 and a 23 share; NBC's "Nightly News" had 12.7 and a 22, and ABC's "World News Tonight" had 10.7 and 18.

NBC was the decisive winner, while CBS barely edged ABC for second place. Marvin Mord, ABC vice president for marketing and research services, said the network was happy with the miniseries' ratings even though it did not do as well as ABC had predicted. "Amerika" ended up with an average rating of 19.0 and a 29 share, a few share points lower than ABC had hoped. The rating is a percentage of all homes that have televisions.

The share is a percentage of homes with televisions in use. "It was a strong performance for us," Mord said. "The fact that we were within about a 10 percent range of where we hoped to be is still a good indicator of its performance and strength." ABC estimated that 100 million viewers saw all or part of "Ameri-ka." The miniseries had drawn considerable attention because of its provocative premise. It was set in a United States that had been under Soviet rule for 10 years. The 14l2-hour miniseries was on for seven nights, beginning Feb.

14 and concluding Sunday. Only one installment made it into the top 10 last week.
