The year was new, but the content wasn’t.
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 follows the chart.
ABC: 20/20 won an extremely slow New Year’s night with 1.1.
CBS: Triple 0.8s for a night of reruns.
NBC: DATELINE managed a 1.0.
FOX: MASTERCHEF JR reruns at 0.7/0.7.
CW: The second night of the IHEARTRADIO MUSIC FESTIVAL rerun was at 0.3.
The only piece of network programming tonight that’s worth noting is ABC’s marathon of GALAVANT episodes as preparation for the return of the lovably silly musical comedy on Sunday. ESPN has a quadruple-feature of COLLEGE FOOTBALL bowl games, leaving only the January 11 Championship yet to play, and Starz airs the season finale of ASH VS. EVIL DEAD.
CABLE RATINGS: Come back Tuesday morning for detailed demographic ratings for top cable programs from this day.

Even football was subdued on a very quiet night. CBS: A blowout win by Atlanta over Tampa Bay tested even NFL fans, as THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL crashed by 2.2 from last week to a 3.3 preliminary rating. That will go up in final numbers, but not enough to make…

On another night riddled with football preemptions and likely to be adjusted by Monday numbers, there was little to say. ABC’s WE DAY special went largely unseen at 0.4, and the night’s original 20/20, down 0.2 to 0.7, barely outraged its SHARK TANK rerun lead-in. NBC’S DATELINE won the…
