SHOWBUZZDAILY FRIDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11.4.2016

 

Apparently a 150th episode is a thing.

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.

CBS:  The fact that this week’s HAWAII 5-0 was the 150th episode may have propelled the show up 0.2 to be the night’s highest-rated programming at 1.2.  It was preceded by MACGYVER, up 0.2 to 1.1, and BLUE BLOODS, steady at 1.1.

ABC:  The sitcoms returned after a week off exactly where they’d been, with LAST MAN STANDING at 1.1 and DR KEN at 0.8.  SHARK TANK held at last week’s 1.1, and 20/20 was up 0.1 to 0.8.

FOX:  Returning from their World Series break, HELL’S KITCHEN (1.1) and THE EXORCIST (0.7) stayed put.

CW:  THE VAMPIRE DIARIES gained 0.1 to 0.4, and CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND held at 0.2.

NBC:  CAUGHT ON CAMERA remained at 0.6, and DATELINE was up 0.1 to 1.0.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL occupies 2 networks tonight, and the final pre-election SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE is hosted by the man of the moment, DOCTOR STRANGE’s Benedict Cumberbatch, with musical guest Solange. 

CABLE RATINGS: Come back Monday for detailed demographic ratings for top cable programs from this day.
