BRAINDEAD is living up to the second half of its title.
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.
CBS: A new episode of BRAINDEAD was outrated by the 0.7-0.8 reruns that preceded it, falling 0.2 from last week’s premiere to a tenuous 0.5.
NBC: AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR slipped 0.1 to 1.8, but SPARTAN underlined the compatibility of the night by holding at 1.5.
ABC: THE BACHELORETTE was the night’s highest-rated show, returning after an NBA Finals break at a steady 2.0. MISTRESSES remained at 0.8.
FOX: SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE lost 0.1 to 0.8, and HOUDINI & DOYLE held at 0.4.
CW: REIGN gained 0.1 to 0.3 for its season finale. Both the new and rerun WHOSE LINE IS IT ANYWAY episodes were at 0.3, the same as last week.
PERSON OF INTEREST wraps up its run tonight. On cable, PRETTY LITTLE LIARS returns to Freeform, and OWN unveils its most ambitious scripted original to date, the serialized drama GREENLEAF.
COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
