    Ratings Breakdown:
    CBS topped this third Sunday in April in the household overnights, besting No. 2 NBC by 46 percent. But the race in adults 18-49 will be a much closer call between the two.

    Granddaddy “60 Minutes” opened the evening for CBS with a 7.7 rating/14 share in households at 7 p.m., leading into a compatible 7.0/12 for also older-skewing “Madam Secretary” at 8 p.m. Although “Madam Secretary” bested competing “Little Big Shots” on NBC (#2: 6.4/11) by nine percent in the overnights, the Steve Harvey-hosted hour is a lock for dominance in all the young adult demographics.

    Next on CBS was “The Good Wife” (#1: 6.1/10 at 9 p.m.), which officially concludes on May 16, followed by recently renewed “Elementary” at a second-place 2.7/ 6 at 10 p.m.

    “Little Big Shots” on NBC led into two episodes of recently introduced sitcom “Crowded” (9 p.m.: #2: 3.4/ 5; 9:30 p.m.: #2: 2.6/ 4), which performed similarly to regularly scheduled “The Carmichael Show” in the 9 p.m. half-hour. Next was a Sunday 10 p.m. edition of “Dateline” at a first-place 3.7/ 7. Earlier in the evening on NBC was an encore telecast of “Little Big Shots” at a second-place 3.2/ 6 at 7 p.m.

    Elsewhere, the overnight results were minimal. A repeat of veteran “America’s Funniest Home Videos” on ABC (#3: 2.7/ 5 at 7 p.m.) led into a mere 2.5/ 4 (#3) for tired “Once Upon a Time” at 8 p.m. Comparably, “Once Upon a Time” slipped by 22 percent from the 3.2/ 5 in the overnights on the year-ago evening. And that led into a series-low 2.2/ 4 for failing recent drama entry “The Family” at 9 p.m. (#3), followed by overrated “Quantico” at a 2.6/ 5 (#3) at 10 p.m. ABC should consider moving “Quantico” into the 10 p.m. hour on a weeknight next season,.

    Fox, meanwhile, needs to cut ties with recent comedy entries “Bordertown” (#4: 0.8/ 2) and “Cooper Barrett’s Guide to Surviving Life” (#4: 0.6/ 1), which aired from 7-8 p.m. And they led into a repeat of “The Simpsons” (1.3/ 2 at 8 p.m.), and original installments of “”Bob’s Burgers” (#4: 1.3/ 2), “Family Guy” (#4: 1.8/ 3) and “The Last Man on Earth” (#4: 1.6/ 2) from 8:30-10 p.m., which each finished fourth in their time periods.

  • 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 (We also where possible now post the 18-34 and 25-54 Demo Numbers).

    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.

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