SHOWBUZZDAILY WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10.30.2019

 

Live programming like last night’s WORLD SERIES Game 7 are understated in the fast nationals below because of live viewing on the west coast before 8-11PM PT. The numbers below for FOX should rise about +15% in the official nationals later today.

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.

FOX:  Game 7 of the WORLD SERIES exploded to a preliminary 5.6, up 1.8 from Tuesday’s early number.

ABC:  THE GOLDBERGS (0.9) and SCHOOLED (0.7) were steady.  MODERN FAMILY returned from a week off and held at 1.0, and with a stronger lead-in than last week, SINGLE PARENTS gained 0.1 to 0.7.  STUMPTOWN also returned from a break, down 0.1 to 0.5.

CBS:  An up-and-down night, as SURVIVOR dropped 0.2 to 1.1, SEAL TEAM rose 0.1 to 0.7, and SWAT was down 0.1 to 0.5.

NBC:  CHICAGO MED stayed at 1.2, CHICAGO PD lost 0.1 to 1.1, and CHICAGO PD was steady at 1.1.
