The Live+Same Day numbers reported in our ratings column do not reflect a show’s overall performance, given the increased use of delayed playback via DVR and streaming platforms, plus out-of-home viewing. These numbers (Nielsen fast nationals, unless denoted as finals) instead aim to simply illustrate trends or superlatives. This is only an exhibition, this is not a competition. Please, no wagering.
NCIS last week so low and last night so strong !? Wow! Renewal for 21st season???
We shall see!
Last week there was this little thing called football that aired (as referenced in the article)
Decent results across the board last night
Come on Fantasy Island! Staying steady!
Bob hearts Abishola is by far the most underrated comedy on TV. Consistent laughs and an ensemble cast that is fantastic.
Maybe B♡A will get that renewal.
Things aren’t looking good for Fantasy Island, but I really do like it!
It’s time to put that Bachelor/Bachelorette franchise into the trash can. Poorly scripted show that garners fewer and fewer viewers each installment.
