SHOWBUZZDAILY SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 6.21.2020

 

On a Father’s Day dominated by reruns, the star of the night was John Bolton.

DEMOGRAPHIC DETAIL: For each broadcast program (or hour segment), the chart below displays preliminary live+same day 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:  After a rerun CELEBRITY FAMILY FEUD at 0.5, JOHN LEGEND & FAMILY:  A BIGGER LOVE FATHER’S DAY was at 0.4, and Bolton’s interview special THE ROOM WHERE IT HAPPENED was at 0.7.  A rerun MATCH GAME followed at 0.4.

CBS:  60 MINUTES dipped 0.1 to 0.6, and UNITED WE SING:  A GRAMMY TRIBUTE TO UNSUNG HEROES was at 0.3.  A rerun NCIS: NEW ORLEANS ended the night at 0.2.

NBC; HOLLYWOOD GAME NIGHT gained 0.1 to 0.3.  Reruns followed at 0.3/0.4.

FOX:  Reruns at 0.1-0.3.

CW:  Reruns at 0.1/0.1.

Tonight, CW’s PENN & TELLER: FOOL US begins a new season, and HBO’s critically-acclaimed I MAY DESTROY YOU changes nights.

COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 live+same day ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.

Note: The fast affiliate-based ratings below measure what aired on network affiliates in 210 U.S. markets from 8-11 pm Eastern & Pacific or 7-10 pm Central & Mountain. The numbers are some combination of the network schedule and any pre-emptions (such as local news or weather coverage). Also live events such as sporting events and major specials are usually undercounted because the fast nationals measure what was on in primetime in the Pacific Time Zone (mostly what aired after the live event ended on the West Coast). Accurate program ratings will be available Tuesday morning.

CABLE RATINGS: Come back this afternoon for detailed demographic ratings for top Friday cable programs. Saturday & Sunday cable ratings will be posted Tuesday morning.
