The Sked: Tuesday Ratings 11.8.2016

COMING LATER: Full coverage of Election Night ratings for broadcast and cable networks, later this afternoon when the nationals arrive.  For now, NBC has bragging rights on broadcast election coverage, leading the night with 4.4 over ABC’s 2.9, CBS’s 2.6 and FOX’s 1.6.  (CW technically aired reruns of THE FLASH and NO TOMORROW, but its affiliates were largely preempted around the country for local election coverage.)

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).
