SHOWBUZZDAILY SUNDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 3.24.2019

 

A Duke nail-biter gave a big boost to CBS.

DEMOGRAPHIC DETAIL: For each broadcast program (or hour segment), the chart below displays preliminary live+same day 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.

CBS:  With help from the Duke vs. UCF NCAA TOURNAMENT game that bled into primetime, 60 MINUTES jumped to a preliminary 2.1, and GOD FRIENDED ME was up 0.2 to 1.0.  NCIS: LA held at 0.9, and MADAM SECRETARY rose 0.2 to 0.7.

ABC:  Following 0.7 for a rerun AMERICA’S FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS, AMERICAN IDOL sagged by 0.1 to tie its series low 1.2, and SHARK TANK was down 0.1 to 0.8.

NBC:  After 0.4 for a rerun ELLEN’S GAME OF GAMES, WORLD OF DANCE was steady at 0.8, and GOOD GIRLS gained 0.1 to 0.6.

FOX:  THE SIMPSONS (0.8) and BOB’S BURGERS (0.9) were steady, and FAMILY GUY was up 0.1 to 0.9.  They were flanked by reruns at 0.3-0.6.

CW:  SUPERGIRL (0.3) and CHARMED (0.2) stayed as-is.

Tonight, AMC’s INTO THE BADLANDS moves to its new Monday slot, and History’s KNIGHTFALL returns for its 2nd season.

COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 live+same day ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
