THE BACHELOR remained viewers’ suitor of choice.
DEMOGRAPHIC DETAIL: For each broadcast program (or hour segment), the chart below displays preliminary key advertiser demographics (adult 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54 ratings), audience skews (women 18-49, men 18-49 and adults 50+ shares) and total viewership (thousands of people over the age of 2).
Ratings analysis and comparisons follow the chart.
ABC: THE BACHELOR dipped 0.1 from last week, but its 2.3 was still dominant. QUANTICO held at 0.8, although it was at 0.6 in the 10:30PM half-hour.
FOX: GOTHAM and LUCIFER won’t be back until respectively April/May, and the midseason finales found GOTHAM down 0.1 to 1.1 and LUCIFER steady at 1.2.
CBS: The only original programming was THE ODD COUPLE, which aired back-to-back season finale episodes at 1.1/0.9, compared to 1.1 for its last episode 2 weeks ago. Both numbers were below the rerun BIG BANG THEORY that started the night at 1.5.
CW: Both SUPERGIRL and JANE THE VIRGIN fell 0.1 to 0.7/0.3.
NBC: CELEBRITY APPRENTICE dropped 0.1 to 1.0, and TIMELESS remained at 0.9.
Tonight’s broadcast schedule may be shifted in much of the country due to live coverage of the Supreme Court designee. On cable, THE FOSTERS and SWITCHED AT BIRTH return to Freeform.
COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
