UPDATED: SHOWBUZZDAILY’s Top 150 Monday Cable Originals & Network Finals: 10.24.2016

 

 

 

 

NETWORK FINALS:  KEVIN CAN WAIT gained 0.1 in final numbers.  (MAN WITH A PLAN’s premiere stayed as-is, even to the next digit, as its final was 1.60.)  Things are starting to get ugly at TIMELESS, where an adjustment lowered the rating by 0.1 to a new low 1.3, barely ahead of SCORPION despite its much higher lead-in.  As expected, football adjustments lowered the numbers at CW, with SUPERGIRL down 0.1 to 0.8, and JANE THE VIRGIN down 0.2 to 0.4.
