One newcomer was big, one was fine, and one was off-key.
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: The network has done very well with primetime game shows, and JEOPARDY! THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME had a tremendous start at 2.4. That did wonders for MIXED-ISH, which rose 0.6 from its last airing on December 10 to 1.1, and BLACK-ISH was up 0.2 to 0.8. EMERGENCE ticked up to 0.5.
CBS: NCIS was steady with its December 17 airing at 1.0, and FBI was up 0.1 to 0.9. Its lead-out was the premiere of its own spin-off FBI: MOST WANTED, which proved reliably compatible at 0.8.
NBC: After back-to-back episodes of ELLEN’S GAME OF GAMES at 1.0/1.1, ZOEY’S EXTRAORDINARY PLAYLIST had a subdued premiere at 0.6. (It won’t air again until Sunday February 16.)
FOX: THE RESIDENT held the 0.7 from its December 17 airing, and the season premiere of 24 HOURS TO HELL & BACK was at 0.7.
CW: Reruns at 0.1/0.1.
Tonight CBS has the season premieres of UNDERCOVER BOSS and CRIMINAL MINDS. On cable, Freeform launches the rebooted PARTY OF FIVE.
COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 live+same day ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
