More bad news than good.
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.

FOX: THE MASKED SINGER (1.1) and GAME OF TALENTS (0.6) lost 0.1.
CW: RIVERDALE held at 0.1, and NANCY DREW, which has been flirting with a rounded zero rating, hit that ignominious milestone, dropping 0.1.
There are changes on 3 networks tonight. NBC follows the season premiere of MANIFEST by event-izing the debut of LAW & ORDER: ORGANIZED CRIME via a former co-star crossover with SVU. CBS has the series premiere of UNITED STATES OF AL, and FOX airs the season premiere episodes of THE MOODYS.
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). Accurate program ratings will be available with the broadcast finals.
