Football beat politics.
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 Oklahoma vs Baylor COLLEGE FOOTBALL game handily won the night at 1.7.
CBS: The first broadcast network DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE of the election season was also the lowest rated debate thus far at 1.5. It was preceded by a special 48 HOURS devoted to the Paris attacks at 1.0.
FOX: More COLLEGE FOOTBALL, with Oregon vs. Stanford at 0.5.
NBC: A 2-hour DATELINE was at 0.8, followed by a SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE edited rerun at 0.6.
If INTO THE BADLANDS fails for AMC tonight, it won’t be able to blame its timeslot, airing as it does after THE WALKING DEAD. In addition, E! launches Season 2 of its moderate hit THE ROYALS.
