Ratings: The Office's baby delivers strong numbers

The Office, now in its sixth season, has continued to bring in strong numbers for the network in its 9/8c timeslot. The ensemble comedy is NBC's No. 1 scripted series in the 18-to-49 demo. Thursday's hourlong episode, which featured the highly anticipated birth of Jim and Pam's baby, brought in 9 million viewers and 4.7 demo rating, topping Grey's Anatomy among 18-to-49-year-olds for the first time.

30 Rock — which has won the best comedy series Emmy the last three years —has proved to be increasingly popular among viewers. After getting off to a slow start in 2006, the comedy has slowly grown to an average of 6.9 million viewers. 30 Rock's most recent episode lured in 6.1 million viewers on Feb. 11.
