REVERIE arrived sleepily.
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.
NBC: Episodes of AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR air throughout the regular season wherever NBC needs to fill in a hole on its schedule, but last night was its official season premiere, and its 1.2 was down 0.2 from the June 2017 premiere (on a Monday). REVERIE premiered at 0.6, not a disastrous number for a summer original, but certainly nothing to be enthused about.
FOX: MASTERCHEF had a 1.0 2-hour season premiere, down 0.1 from 2017 (in a 1-hour format).
CBS: Following a 0.5 rerun of SEAL TEAM, the canceled CODE BLACK aired back-to-back episodes at 0.7/0.7, down 0.1 from its last episode 2 weeks ago.
CW: THE ORIGINALS was steady at 0.3, airing after a rerun SUPERGIRL at 0.2.
ABC: Sitcom reruns at 0.5-0.6.
ABC has Game 1 of the NBA FINALS tonight, and the other broadcasters are giving it a wide berth with line-ups of reruns.
COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
