'Tyra Banks Show' moving to the CW

November 21, 2008 The economics of the show, which is sold on a cash-plus-barter basis, played a role in its move out of syndication as stations are forced to make budget cuts amid the economic downturn. "Tyra" this season is averaging a 1.0 household rating, off 9% from the same period a year ago, which puts it in a different league as higher-rated talkers including "The Oprah Winfrey Show," "Dr. Phil" and WBDTD's "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," which is the only talker up year-over-year. "Pirro," meanwhile, averaged a 0.8 rating/2 share last week in 56 weighted metered markets, down 33% from its average lead-in and off 11% from the year-ago time-period average.
