Today's Early Overnight Ratings

This table shows the early overnight ratings.

You can find all the final adjusted numbers in our Ratings Database. (See the About section below for details about ratings)

If you are new to ratings or still confused, we recommend you read this excellent Ratings FAQ.

“The Voice” (NBC)

“Glee” (Fox), “The Goldbergs” (ABC), “New Girl” (Fox), “Trophy Wife” (ABC), “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” (Fox), “Mind Games” (ABC)

———-

-Ratings Breakdown:
Despite airing a night of all repeats, CBS still managed to dominate this second Tuesday in the household overnights with a 0.1 rating point advantage over second-place NBC. But the home of “The Voice” is a lock for leadership in adults 18-49 (and the other key young adult demographics).

“The Voice” topped the night with an 8.5 rating/14 share in the overnights from 8-9 p.m., which was 21 percent above an encore of “NCIS” on CBS (#2: 7.0/11). Next on NBC was episode three of sitcoms “About a Boy” (#2: 5.0/ 8) and “Growing Up Fisher” (#2: 4.1/ 6) from 9-10 p.m., which were right on par from one week earlier. Comparably, the two comedies bested competing “The Goldbergs” (#3: 2.9/ 4) and “Trophy Wife” (#4: 2.0/ 3) on ABC by an average of 86 percent. And both are poised for time period victory among adults 18-49 (opposite a repeat of “NCIS: Los Angeles” on CBS, #1: 6.1/10).

Sophomore “Chicago Fire” capped off the night on NBC with a 4.7/ 8 at 10 p.m., which was one-tenth of a rating point ahead of a repeat of “Person of Interest” on CBS (4.8/ 8). And that will, no doubt, dominate demographically.

On ABC, “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” perked up week-to-week by 11 percent in the overnights, rising to a third-place 3.9/ 6 at 8 p.m. But this still pales in comparison to how it was performing last fall. Episode three of ABC drama “Mind Games” meanwhile, could not compete with a mere 1.8/ 3 at 10 p.m., which was equal to one week earlier (and that translated into just 2.39 million viewers and a 0.6 rating/2 share, according to the live plus same day data).

Elsewhere, relocated “Glee” on Fox could not compete with a 2.1/ 3 from 8-9 p.m., which finished a distant fourth in the time period. And it did not benefit lead-out 9-10 p.m. sitcoms “New Girl” (#4: 2.0/ 3) and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” (#3: 2.1/ 3), which have not earned their recent renewals. Nor has “Glee.”

The CW capped off the evening with its combination of already renewed “The Originals” (#5: 1.3/ 2) and a repeat of “Supernatural” (#5: 0.8/ 1).

About the Daily Ratings

Each day (except Sunday) during the main TV Season we post the TV Ratings for the previous nights primetime shows for the major broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, CW, FOX, NBC). Cable Network ratings will be added to the Ratings Database.

The first item that gets posted (normally around 2pm GMT) is the early overnight analysis based on the early household numbers (these are not the same as the Total Viewers and 18-49 Demo numbers that are posted later).

Next, if available, we will post the Top 25 Market 18-49 Ratings to give you a rough idea of the ratings to following.

Later on (normally between 4pm-5pm GMT) we post the official early overnight Total Viewers and 18-49 Demo numbers in the table above.

Finally, later in the evening (10pm-11pm GMT) or the following day, the final adjusted ratings numbers are released, these are then posted in the Ratings Database. The Final Adjusted numbers are what we use for all our Renew/Cancellation Tables, Full Season Tables, Ratings Scorecards etc (see below). Friday's Final Adjusted Ratings are normally available on the following Monday.

  1. Really good for About A Boy and GUF. The Originals is gonna die next week going up against the highly anticiapted 100th episode of Glee and the PLL finale. And lets not forget new episodes of The Voice and NCIS. And with Claire Holt (she plays Rebekah on Originals) leaving the show, I can see it doing a 0.6 next week.

    ReplyDelete
  2. Looks like either the Thor cross-over or no NCIS once again helped Agents of SHEILD!

    ReplyDelete
  3. Good Job AOS!! The increase was needed badly so I hope the renew it, and move time slots!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  4. It will be renewed. It is ABC's highest rated new fall show.

    ReplyDelete
  5. No, The Originals fell again on early ratings. I hope its rating rating will be stable anyway (0.8 wouldn't be great, but still better than 0.7), because I don't want a new series low :( I'm already broken-hearted about Rebekah.

    ReplyDelete
  6. No The Originals! aah! with rebekah leaving, i could see reign or the 100 being top freshmen show.

    ReplyDelete
  7. I don't think Reign will be above The Originals this week. Reign will be airing after an repeat of VD. And i doubt it will be able to match last week ratings. Original is and will be the top rated freshman show of the season, it has consistently had better ratings than Reign. And while the 100 might do good, i doubt it will be able to beat the ratings of The Originals.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Resurrection might have something to say about that,if it doesn't nose dive,which i doubt.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Fall show, Resurrection is their highest rated mid-season show is what I meant.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Cant believe Rebekah's gone! Hope its some kind of stunt, but I read she quit. The Originals with only 2 Originals? Feels incomplete.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Hopefully Shield goes back to that 2.2 range. Not that it is in any danger, but still, I would like it to be higher than it was last week.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Oops! didn't see 'fall'!

    ReplyDelete
  13. It will, a lot of fans quit the originals after rebekah and claire holt leaving the show. reign won't go above a 0.6. But the 100 definitely can get some 0.8's, which would beat a 0.7, that i think the originals will have.

    ReplyDelete
  14. AoS was helped by actual marvel comic character appearing.


    Next week will start to be test for the originals

    ReplyDelete
  15. move it to 9pm, that should provide a better lead in for a new show at 10 and air two new comedies at 8/8.30 instead?

    ReplyDelete
  16. how many of the people who aparently quit watching have a Nielson box?

    ReplyDelete
  17. They seem to really want it to be a 8pm family show though, maybe if the story gets darker they will change their minds as well.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Eidnoreid Pills12 March 2014 at 15:12

    That 0.9, I wonder if next season will be shortened and moved to Fridays.

    ReplyDelete
  19. It's impressive how the show has lost its audience, such a hit...

    ReplyDelete
  20. AoS up to a 2.0, not great but that's still decent

    ReplyDelete
  21. And this week is actually the beginning of DST which might also factor in the ratings. And unless those viewers are members of a Nielsen households it doesn't really matter. I just dont think Reign can achieve the same ratings as it does with VD as lead in.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Don't want to be boring, but Fringe S5 had 0.9-1.1 rating on *Friday* night ... is Kevin Reilly still committed to the "we are not in the business of losing money" idea?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Mind Games rebounded :-)

    ReplyDelete
  24. I would say air last season of Glee in Summer.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I would air it on summer 2015 to be honest. They can do better on Fridays. I think it would do Raising Hope kind of levels on Fridays

    ReplyDelete
  26. Glee = Mind Games, yet still continues to get all this press and coverage on entertainment sites. I just don't get it. They really should cancel it now. The audience is gone. At the least move it to Friday where it can be paired with that other winner - Rake.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Go Agents of SHIELD! Better than the sub 1's from the past two episodes and just further proof that they need to move it AWAY from NCIS. Will probably adjust up in the finals like it normally does

    ReplyDelete
  28. So happy to see SHIELD back in the 2's :)

    ReplyDelete
  29. yike about a boy- big decline from last week

    ReplyDelete
  30. It just scored a sub 1 rating and that it was last week when it had a 1.85 final rating. The episode before that had its usual 2.2

    ReplyDelete
  31. First, no one cares about GLEE.
    Second, no one cares about PPL finale. As long as it is not SERIES finale, then there's nothing new happen in every season finale of PPL.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I think it is in danger, its an expensive show and was expected to have higher ratings wouldnt be suprised if it gets cancelled

    ReplyDelete
  33. I was hoping AoS would do higher than that.

    ReplyDelete
  34. It's still good but I am getting a bit nervous about it. I really like it so I really want it to stick around. I think Fisher is more impressive than it is.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Lot of drops this week.


    I think Glee is costing New Girl/B99 some casual viewers. It's one thing to sit through a half hour of Dads....sitting through an HOUR of Glee is honestly a chore. Hell I think Glee being an hour long is hurting itself.

    ReplyDelete
  36. If they stay <1.5, they will definitely get renewed.

    ReplyDelete
  37. agree its better than more nbc comedy but could it anchor a new nigh with out the voice?

    ReplyDelete
  38. Eidnoreid Pills12 March 2014 at 15:25

    Exactly, it's fallen so low.

    ReplyDelete
  39. DayLights Savings started

    ReplyDelete
  40. Trophy Wife is gone...
    Goldbergs either Wed after The Middle or Friday after LMS but I think Subgateroy might get Friday

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  42. The Glee fans care about Glee. The PLL fanatics care about PLL. So what makes you say no one cares?

    ReplyDelete
  43. How big an issue is Daylight Savings? Are people missing their shows cause of the time change or something?

    ReplyDelete
  44. Does that typically make that much of a difference?

    ReplyDelete
  45. It will probably adjust up but still, I was also hoping for a bit higher.

    ReplyDelete
  46. ok for sheild but it still a disappointment

    ReplyDelete
  47. But really though, SpoilerTV is great :) !!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Ouch Fox, especially Glee!

    ReplyDelete
  49. Great night for NBC.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I don't think it could anchor, let's say, Thursdays. But move to the Tuesday 8pm hour while the voice goes to 9pm to help a 10pm drama is certainly possible.

    ReplyDelete
  51. 4 new episodes below 1.0, that's so ugly

    ReplyDelete
  52. Not like 100th episodes of GLEE will make this show gain from 0.9 to 3.0 or something and not like the season finale of PPL suddenly rose to 2.0. So, when you say "The Originals is gonna die next week..." just unacceptable unless you can see the future.

    ReplyDelete
  53. i can see that but not thrusdays

    ReplyDelete
  54. The Voice jumping 0.7 at the half hour is crazy.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Fox really jumped the gun when they renewed Glee for double seasons

    ReplyDelete
  56. Agents of SHIELD back in the 2's, will adjust up no doubt.

    ReplyDelete
  57. some think so others don't- if anything 8 o clock shows get most affected

    ReplyDelete
  58. They could also turn the final season into a mini-series-Nikita-style and air it like a special event

    ReplyDelete
  59. CW was preempted in Chicago.

    ReplyDelete
  60. The Originals is up(Unless there was a premption). Interesting. I think we could say now it's a hit for the CW. or was depending on what the departure does for the network.

    ReplyDelete
  61. and there it is. lol.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Maybe it's time to FOX find another day for its comedies?

    ReplyDelete
  63. New Girl and B99 doing same number now as The Mindy Project. I know they wanna build up the B99 audience but they should have just kept The Mindy Project as is

    ReplyDelete
  64. Thumbs Up TO & CF...they deserve it

    ReplyDelete
  65. The CW should totally renew Supernatural repeats ;). It got higher than most of the channels original programming.

    ReplyDelete
  66. CW has preempted for NBA basketball in Chicago. So we will probably see some changes in finals.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Ah fair enough. I thought it was weird that a repeat of Supernatural would be only 0.1 below the last original Arrow. (although Arrow was unusually low and I'm sure will bounce back next week).

    ReplyDelete
  68. Funny you should bring that up. Also, NONE of FOX's gambits coming into 2014 have worked.

    ReplyDelete
  69. plus it usually wins the male 18-34 demo.

    S.H.I.E.L.D. tied The Voice for the lead in the hour with Men 18-34 and finished as the #1 scripted series in its slot for its 15th-consecutive original telecast with young men.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Yeah there is also that

    ReplyDelete
  71. I didnt realise people being forced to watch the same network for the whole night, I thought the US had heard of remote controls?

    ReplyDelete
  72. Glee makes money thats why its still on the air, but yes it should either move to Friday next season or to the spring/summer. The show shot itself in the foot last season with its lack of direction. The move completely over to NYC isnt going to save the ratings now, its too late but maybe the quality can improve for the rest of its run.

    ReplyDelete
  73. I have watch every season and its clear with each season why viewers are being lost, there is a complete lack of coherency/direction. Most fans predicted the old cast graduating and trying to replace them was a bad idea. The idea to move to NYC and follow the shows more popular characters might have been the better way to go all along. But oh well, I will keep enjoying it for the rest of its run.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Actually i think they sell ADs for advertisers with certain projected ratings and if it doesn't meet them they have to pay a penalty

    ReplyDelete
  75. I'm talking about casual viewers who are looking for something to put on the TV and they turn on FOX. I think it's easier to hold the attention spans of those viewers if the show changes every half hour. I watch New Girl and Brooklyn 99 every week, and that whole hour of Glee beforehand makes the 8 o'clock hour drag more than it used to when it was Dads/B99/NG/Mindy.
