  • Last Week's Final Adjusted Ratings


  • Early HH Ratings from Marc Berman (programminginsider)
    The analysis below is based on the early household numbers and are NOT the same as the numbers that will be posted in the above table later. (See the About section below)

    NOTE: The opinions expressed here are NOT those of SpoilerTV but of the Author of this Article, Marc Berman.

    Household Rating/Share
    CBS: 4.2/ 7, ABC and NBC: 4.0/ 7 each, Fox: 3.7/ 6, CW: 0.5/ 1

    Percent Change from the Year-Ago Evening:
    CBS: no change, ABC: – 7, NBC: -23, CW: -29, Fox: -49

    -Ratings Breakdown:
    Fox without “American Idol” and “Empire” will certainly feel the loss in this first quarter. Stepping in for “Empire,” new drama “Star” finished fourth in the 9 p.m. hour with a modest 3.3 rating/5 share in the household overnights. Comparably, the second half of the “American Idol” season-opener on the year-ago evening averaged a 7.4/12, which was 124 percent higher. “Star” dropped in the vicinity of approximately 40 percent from what “Empire” would normally score in the overnights. And, “Star” dipped from lead-in “Lethal Weapon” (#3: 4.2/ 7 at 8 p.m.) by 21 percent. The one positive worth noting, however, was no loss in households for “Star” in the second half hour.


    CBS won this first Wednesday of 2017 in the household overnights with its combination of “Undercover Boss” (#1: 4.1/ 7), “Criminal Minds” (#2: 4.5/ 7) and sophomore “Code Black” (#3: 3.9/ 7).

    NBC, which tied ABC for second overall, had a relatively positive showing, with all three dramas up slightly from their prior Wednesday originals despite the long break. “Blindspot” opened with a 3.6/ 6 at 8 p.m. (#4: +3 percent), followed by veteran “Law & Order: SVU” (#3: 4.1/ 7: + 5 percent) and “Chicago PD” (#1: 4.1/ 7: + 3 percent) from 9-11 p.m.

    In season-premiere news, ABC’s “The Match Game,” hosted by Alec Baldwin, finished third at 10 p.m. with a 3.5/ 6. Comparably, that was 10 percent below lead-in “black-ish” (#3: 3.9/ 6 at 9:30 p.m.). Earlier in the evening on ABC was the combination of “The Goldbergs” (#1: 4.3/ 7), “Speechless” (#3: 3.7/ 6) and “Modern Family” (#1: 5.2/ 8) from 8-9:30 p.m.

    The CW capped off the night with a repeat of “The Flash” (#5: 0.5/ 1) into an also 0.5/ 1 for canceled “Frequency” at 9 p.m.

  • About the Daily Ratings - Please Read if you are new to 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.
