None of the new Sunday arrivals look like a breakout hit.
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: After AMERICA’S FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS slid 0.1 to 1.3, ONCE UPON A TIME continued its post-FROZEN arc skid by dropping 0.3 to 1.8. SECRETS AND LIES continued to be mediocre, down 0.1 to 1.3, and REVENGE held at 1.1.
CBS: 60 MINUTES started the night with a 0.4 jump to 1.4 that was probably helped by its lead-in, the NCAA Tournament Selection special. After that, MADAM SECRETARY was up 0.1 to 1.2, and THE GOOD WIFE and BATTLE CREEK remained at their respective 1.0 and 0.8.
FOX: The whole line-up was down. BOB’S BURGERS fell by 0.2 to 1.0, and THE SIMPSONS and BROOKLYN NINE-NINE each by 0.1 to a respective 1.5 and 1.4. More damagingly, both FAMILY GUY and THE LAST MAN ON EARTH were down by 0.4, to 1.7 and 1.5.
NBC: Still biding its time until launching its new Sunday in 3 weeks, the network ran a rerun of THE VOICE at 0.7 and then a DATELINE at 0.9.
ABC premieres the new cycle of DANCING WITH THE STARS tonight. NBC and CW are new, while FOX has a fresh hour of THE FOLLOWING, and CBS is all-rerun except for MIKE & MOLLY.
COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
