Ratings: Ghosts, So Help Me Todd Eye Biggest Audiences Yet; Flatch Ends Low
In the latest TV show ratings, there was a four-way tie for the Thursday demo crown, while CBS’ Young Sheldon drew the night’s largest audience.
CBS | Young Sheldon (with 7.2 million total viewers and a 0.6 rating) is looking at its second-best audience of the season, Ghosts (6.8 mil/0.6) and the newly renewed So Help Me Todd (5.1 mil/0.4) both hit series highs in audience, and CSI: Vegas (3.7 mil/0.4) rose to season highs in both measures.
NBC | Law & Order (4.8 mil/0.5) and Organized Crime (3.6 mil/0.5) were steady in the demo, while SVU (5.2 mil/0.6) dipped. Facing stiffer competition, all three lost viewers.
ABC | Celebrity Jeopardy! (4.6 mil/0.6) was steady with its finale, The Parent Test (2 mi/0.4) ticked up and The Chase (1.8 mil/0.2) dipped.
FOX | Hell’s Kitchen (2 mil/0.3) dipped, the yet-to-be-renewed Welcome to Flatch (780K/0.2) hit an audience low with its sophomore finale, and Call Me Kat (1 mil/0.2) is eyeing a possible series low in audience.

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.
All right Ghosts! Great ratings for an awesome show!
I’m so happy this show continues to be such a success. Last night’s episode was wild, in the best way possible.
So Happy for Todd!
So help me Todd is doing great again Law & Order SVU
I am enjoying So Help Me Todd. But it still seems like they are searching for what the show is supposed to be. This is not a bad thing, but it still hasn’t quite found its voice. Dramedy is tough to pull off, but they are slowly getting there. Glad to see they will have more time with Season2 renewal.
Ghosts + So Help Me Todd = <3
Please renew welcome to flatch funniest show
I actually really like Welcome to Flatch. It did take a few episodes to get into it, perhaps too much focus on just the young cousins at first, but it’s become a great charming ensemble. I was surprised to see it renewed last spring though so am not going to hold my breath for a second miracle. We’ll see how Animal Control does as well as how Call Me Kat does with a new lead-in and as it continues to adjust post-Phil (RIP Leslie).
Flatch improved steadily over last season (which was pretty good) and had an excellent finale. It;s too bad the audience is so small. I don’t expect a renewal. But then I didn’t expect a second season.
I agree with JD & CB. And I think the addition of the Barb Flack character was definitely a good idea.
Flatch does Kat no favors as a lead in.
I watch So Help Me Todd.
Texas ice storm took care of my tv last night. And one of my favorite nights too.
Flatch is drawing a fraction of what Kat did in that time period and Kat has dropped SD as it now follows Flatch. I will never understand Fox’s logic with this scheduling move. Glad to see Ghosts and Todd hit highs. Love them both. I am finding YS hard to watch as YS has hit puberty and not as amusing-cute as he once was and not quite up to Jim Parson’s awkward adult level.
…So you cancelled ‘Pivoting’ in favor of renewing ‘Flatch,’ FOX? Dummies…
Love Celebrity Jeopardy. So much fun to watch and a great finale! So close. Mayim is a great host.
Congratulations Ghost, So Help Me Todd, Fire Country For The Renewals. Along With The Neighborhood, Bob ❤️ Abishola, The Equalizer, All 3 FBI’s, That Leaves Maybe Slots For 3 Shows. Still Holding Out Hope For NCIS, Swat, And Blue Bloods.
Welcome to Flatch is unlikely to get a season 3 with the ratings they pulled in. Call Me Kat did a bad move in casting Jack McBrayer because I find his character annoying. Fox clearly has no clear direction.
So happy that “Ghosts” is doing great. A little sad about Flatch, though. It’s silly but the quirky characters have really grown on me. I go from Young Sheldon and Ghosts on CBS, over the Flatch and Kat on Fox, while recording both L&Os. So Help Me Todd just didn’t work for me, so, that’s a non-issue.
Good luck Flatch and Yay! Ghosts!
