    -Ratings Breakdown:
    Note: TBS aired Game 3 of the National League Championship Series between the New York Mets and the Chicago Cubs.

    It was another easy Tuesday overnight victory for CBS thanks to “NCIS” (#1 for the evening: 10.6 rating/17 share) and second spin-off “NCIS: New Orleans” (8.1/13) from 8-10 p.m. Episode five of new Eye net drama “Limitless” scored a second-place 5.1/ 9 at 10 p.m., which was one-tenth of a rating point (or two percent) below competing “Chicago Fire” on NBC (5.2/ 9). One year earlier, former Tuesday 10 p.m. time period occupant “Person of Interest” was stronger at a 6.0/10, but an additional episode order is in the cards for “Limitless.”

    Earlier in the evening on NBC was live “Best Time Ever with Neil Patrick Harris” at a third-place 3.2/ 5 at 8 p.m. into a rock-solid 7.2/11 for “The Voice” from 9-10 p.m. “The Voice” will finish first for the evening in adults 18-49 and should be strong enough to potentially lead NBC to victory for the night in all the key demos.

    On ABC, annual holiday special “The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” finished second with a 3.7/ 6 in the 8 p.m. half-hour, which was 19 percent above “The Muppets” one week earlier (3.1/ 5 on Oct. 13). Next was an encore telecast of animated “Toy Show of TERROR” (#3, 2.9/ 5 at 8:30 p.m.), followed by “Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD” (#3: 2.6/ 4) and a repeat of “Shark Tank” (#3: 2.0/ 3) from 9-11 p.m. As always, there is every reason to believe “Charlie Brown” will resonate in the key demos.

    Elsewhere, Fox on paper looked miniscule with its combination of sitcoms “Grandfathered” (#5: 2.5/ 4) and “The Grinder” (#4: 2.2/ 3), which each just received an order for six additional scripts, and “Scream Queens” (#4: 1.8/ 3), which is a magnet in social media and the definition of what could be the new form of a hit.

    The CW capped off the evening with its combination of “The Flash” (#4t, 2.5/ 4) and ‘iZombie” (#5: 1.0/ 1), which at 9 p.m. was 33 percent below year-ago occupant “Supernatural” (1.5/ 2 on 10/21/14).

  • 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.
