IMAGINARY MARY’s premiere wasn’t the stuff of fantasy.
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 sitcoms returned from a week off with a special attraction, as THE GOLDBERGS gained 0.2 to 1.7, and was followed by the pilot for IMAGINARY MARY (which will regularly air on Tuesdays) at 1.4, 0.1 ahead of SPEECHLESS’s rating in that slot 2 weeks ago. MODERN FAMILY was up 0.1 to 2.0, BLACK-ISH held at 1.5, and DESIGNATED SURVIVOR was steady with last week’s 1.1.
FOX: SHOTS FIRED was down 0.1 from last week’s premiere to 1.0, and EMPIRE fell 0.4 from last week’s midseason premiere to a series-low 2.4.
CBS: SURVIVOR remained at 1.7, CRIMINAL MINDS was down 0.1 to 1.2, and CRIMINAL MINDS: BEYOND BORDERS rose 0.1 to 0.9.
NBC: BLINDSPOT stayed at 0.9, then SVU and CHICAGO MED were both down 0.1 to season-low 1.1s.
CW: ARROW (0.5) and THE 100 (0.3) were steady.
THE AMAZING RACE returns to CBS tonight in what had been TRAINING DAY’s slot, and on cable, Comedy Central’s REVIEW airs its final episode.
