UPDATED: SHOWBUZZDAILY’s Top 150 Monday Cable Originals & Network Finals: 3.4.2019

 

 

 

 

NETWORK FINALS:  An adjustment squeezed THE VOICE past THE BACHELOR, although going to the next decimal point, the difference was only 2.06 vs. 2.04.  In addition, MAGNUM PI and THE PASSAGE gained 0.1 in final numbers, while THE RESIDENT lost the same (again, in more detailed numbers, the FOX shows were closer at 0.95 vs. 0.86).
