SHOWBUZZDAILY THURSDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1.24.2019

 

GREY’S ANATOMY settled after last week’s big midseason premiere.

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.

ABC:  GREY’S ANATOMY dropped 0.3 to 1.6.  Despite the lower lead-in, A MILLION LITTLE THINGS was steady at 1.1, and HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER lost 0.1 to a series low 0.6.

CBS:  The network tried interspersing reruns of THE BIG BANG THEORY at 1.4/1.0 with new episodes of FAM at 1.0/0.8, both consistent with last week’s post-MOM 0.9.  A SWAT rerun ended the night at 0.6.

NBC:  THE TITAN GAMES dropped 0.1 to 1.2.  BROOKLYN NINE-NINE gained 0.1 to 1.0, and the season finale of THE GOOD PLACE was at 0.8, steady with last week but down 0.3 from the 2018 finale.  The night wound up with an SVU rerun at 0.6.

FOX:  GOTHAM fell 0.1 to 0.6, and THE ORVILLE held at 0.7.

CW:  SUPERNATURAL was steady with last week’s 0.4, and LEGACIES returned from a break that started on December 13 with a steady 0.3.

NBC airs FIGURE SKATING tonight, and BIG BROTHER: CELEBRITY EDITION resumes on CBS.

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