Final Week of 2016-17 Season TV Ratings and Analysis; How the Sitcoms Did
2016-17 Week 37 TV Ratings (final three nights of season Mon-Wed, LIVE+SD):
Sitcoms in green did excellent for the week, while yellow indicates solid showings and red is not good! This is sorted by adults 18-49:
SOURCE: Nielsen Media Research
Households: #1. ABC 4.82/9 rating/share (+33% in rating from first four nights week 35); #2. CBS 4.26/8 (-3%); #3. NBC 4.25/8 (+14%); #4. Fox 2.10/4 (+1%); #5. The CW 0.99/2 (+8%).
Total Viewers: #1. ABC 7.413 million (+33% from first four nights week 35); #2. NBC 6.774 million (+15%); #3. CBS 6.770 million (-3%); #4. Fox 3.316 million (+2%); #5. The CW 1.623 million (+11%).
Adults 18-49: #1. ABC 1.47/6 rating/share (+21% in rating from first four nights week 35); #2. NBC 1.42/5 (+22%); #3. CBS 1.10/4 (even); #4. Fox 1.09/4 (+8%); #5. The CW 0.54/2 (+10%)
We have previous week's final ratings, Week 35 (5/15/17-5/21/17, LIVE+SD). ABC won the week in A18-49 and did a 1.19 rating. NBC was #2 with a 0.98 rating. CBS was #3 with a 0.84 rating, while Fox was #4 with a 0.78 rating. Among total viewers, CBS was #1 with 6.035 million, with ABC #2 at 5.114 million. NBC was #3 with 4.923 million and Fox at #4 with 2.572 million.
For the final season (9/19/16-5/24/17, LIVE+SD) numbers, NBC was 1 in A18-49 with a 1.66 rating, followed by Fox at #2 with a 1.52 rating thanks to the Super Bowl and also heavily inflated by a high 7-game World Series. Without those 2 events, Fox would be #4. CBS was #3 with a 1.40 rating and ABC was at #4 with a 1.19 rating. Among total viewers CBS was #1 at 7.963 million, followed by NBC at #2 with 6.749 million. ABC jumped by Fox for #3 with 4.991 million as Fox settled for #4 with 4.909 million. ABC will have a bigger lead when final Live+7 figures are out.
Back to week 36 (May 22-29), read our full night-by-night analysis followed by how the sitcoms did! GREAT showings are in BOLD. If they are in bold in both total viewers and 18-49, then it is very impressive:
