THE CARMICHAEL SHOW had an OK debut.
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.
NBC: After a steady 1.6 for AMERICA’S GOT TALENT, THE CARMICHAEL SHOW opened with 2 episodes at 1.1/0.9, similar to what MR. ROBINSON had been doing in the hour. The show will only air for 2 more weeks, so its next outing will likely be key to whether it has any future. The night wound up with LAST COMIC STANDING holding at 1.1.
CBS: BIG BROTHER dropped 0.1 to 2.0, and EXTANT gained 0.1 to 0.8, the latter coming in below the CRIMINAL MINDS rerun that followed.
ABC: CELEBRITY WIFE SWAP dropped 0.1 to 0.8, tying it with the lowest of the night’s sitcom reruns.
FOX: MASTERCHEF held at 1.4, and HOME FREE lost 0.1 to 0.8.
CW: AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL and A WICKED OFFER were each up 0.1, respectively to 0.5 and 0.3.
Tonight will be the first Thursday in several weeks not burdened by NFL PRESEASON FOOTBALL preemptions, so tomorrow morning’s numbers should largely hold up after adjustment.
COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
