Today's Early Overnight Ratings

This table shows the early overnight ratings.

Ratings Breakdown:
“The Big Bang Theory” led CBS to Thursday overnight victory once again, but the Eye net’s advantage over No. 2 ABC was only eight percent. Particularly beneficial to ABC was a Thursday 8 p.m. ET airing of “Shark Tank” at a second-place place 4.9 rating/8 share in the households from 8-9 p.m., which bested the series-finale of “Once Upon a Time in Wonderland” one week earlier (2.3/ 4 on April 3) by 113 percent. “Shark Tank,” which is now a definite contender for the Thursday anchor spot on ABC next season, also outdelivered year-ago occupant “Wife Swap” (3.6/ 6 on 4/11/13) by 36 percent. Pretty wonderful, Mr. Wonderful!

“Grey’s Anatomy” on ABC followed with a 6.0/10, which finished first overall in the 9 p.m. hour, followed by “Scandal” at a dominant 6.6/11 at 10 p.m. Overall, this was the alphabet net’s best Thursday of the season with regularly scheduled programming.

“The Big Bang Theory” topped the night, of course, with a 10.6/18 at 8 p.m. Next was time period dependent “The Millers” (#1: 6.4/11 at 8:30 p.m.), which slipped by 40 percent, followed by “Two and a Half Men” (#1: 6.3/10), “The Crazy Ones” (#2: 4.6/ 7) and sophomore “Elementary” (#2: 5.3/ 9) from 9-11 p.m. If CBS chooses not to renew “The Crazy Ones” (which featured a reunion of former “Mork & Mindy” stars Robin Williams and Pam Dawber last night), TBS should consider keeping it alive. This is a quality show worthy of a second season.

Next was Fox with its combination of demo friendly “Hell’s Kitchen” (#3: 3.2/ 5) and fading “American Idol” (#3: 5.4/ 9), which slipped by its year-ago 8-9 p.m. telecast (8.7/14 on 4/11/13) by 38 percent in the overnights.

Elsewhere, NBC’s line-up of “Community” (#4: 1.8/ 3), “Parks and Recreation” (#4: 1.8/ 3), a repeat of “Hollywood Game Night” (#4: 1.8/ 3) and “Parenthood” (#3: 2.5/ 4) just cannot compete. And The CW populated the evening with a repeat of “The Vampire Diaries” (#5: 0.7/ 1) into an original installment of already renewed drama “Reign” (#4: 1.1/ 2).

About the Daily Ratings

Each day (except Sunday) during the main TV Season we post the TV Ratings for the previous nights primetime shows for the major broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, CW, FOX, NBC). Cable Network ratings will be added to the Ratings Database.

The first item that gets posted (normally around 2pm GMT) is the early overnight analysis based on the early household numbers (these are not the same as the Total Viewers and 18-49 Demo numbers that are posted later).

Next, if available, we will post the Top 25 Market 18-49 Ratings to give you a rough idea of the ratings to following.

Later on (normally between 4pm-5pm GMT) we post the official early overnight Total Viewers and 18-49 Demo numbers in the table above.

Finally, later in the evening (10pm-11pm GMT) or the following day, the final adjusted ratings numbers are released, these are then posted in the Ratings Database. The Final Adjusted numbers are what we use for all our Renew/Cancellation Tables, Full Season Tables, Ratings Scorecards etc (see below). Friday's Final Adjusted Ratings are normally available on the following Monday.

  1. Not really good for Reign.. 0.5.. ?

    ReplyDelete
  2. Scandal's HH ratings increased by .2 tenths.


    is Scandal going to break into the 3's again?


    Also, AMAZING showing for Shark Tank.

    ReplyDelete
  3. Just one question: Was Reign preempted?

    ReplyDelete
  4. ABC has found a show for the Thursday death slot. Hallelujah!

    ReplyDelete
  5. I hope so! Seeing Scandal above 3.0 would be so cool!

    ReplyDelete
  6. Bad night fr NBC; TM and TAHM had almost identical numbers, let's see if this time TAHM managed to grow up from The Millers ...

    ReplyDelete
  7. I love that Scandal went up slightly but I'm irritated with Parenthood's rating. That was the best episode of the season!

    ReplyDelete
  8. Thursdays have been a bad night for NBC for pretty much this whole season.

    ReplyDelete
  9. According to SitcomsOnline, Shark Tank did a 2.1 in the top25 markets.

    ReplyDelete
  10. According to sitcoms online, Scandal did a 3.4. in the top25 markets. Let's hope that that number holds.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Scandal did a 3.4 in the top 25 markets.

    ReplyDelete
  12. So, with luck something in the 3.0 to 3.3.?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Yeah, it most definitely will be lower than 3.4.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Shark Tank doing 2.1 in the top 25 markets should sound like PURE GOLD for ABC ...

    ReplyDelete
  15. How high do you think Scandal will go for it's finale? Top this season's premiere?

    ReplyDelete
  16. I am thinking it might score record high.

    ReplyDelete
  17. The problem is if doing that will destroy their Fridays. I think it would be worth trying out a GA/Scandal/How to Get Away with Murder thing.

    ReplyDelete
  18. TBBT got only a 4.5 in the top 25. Looks way too low.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I've been preaching that block ever since I learned of HTGAWM.
    Also, isn't there a possibility of making Shark Tank a 2 night event, in the lines of AI and The Voice?

    ReplyDelete
  20. Yeah, that is what I feel like they should try too. It got 2.1 in the top 25 and it's essentially pulling the same ratings on a Friday. Is it worth taking the risk?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Maybe there were preemptions?

    ReplyDelete
  22. I don't watch Shark Tank and have absolutely know idea what's it about lol.

    ReplyDelete
  23. From what I heard, the panel is made of entrepreneurs who listen to ideas from aspiring entrepreneurs and guides them through the process of marketing and the like.

    ReplyDelete
  24. So, if Scandal goes above a 3.0, then, it will have beaten the Tuesday edition of The Voice. Truly a beast.

    ReplyDelete
  25. could also be a 0.6, even if it is less likely:

    The last time it got a 1.1 in HH:
    1.48 Million Viewers and a 0.5 rating

    The last episode of Reign got a 1.3 in HH:
    1.40 Million Viewers and a 0.6 rating

    HH numbers usually indicate Viewers and not the demo:

    So expect a 1.3-1.5 Million Viewers with a 0.5-0.6 rating in A18-49

    ReplyDelete
  26. Looks like having a repeat of TVD was bad for Reign. Too bad, it was an amazing episode.

    ReplyDelete
  27. still good, so expect a 0.5 in the demo, it could also be higher or lower, which I don't expect.

    ReplyDelete
  28. If Reign and The100 both get .5s and TTP got a .5 on a Monday. I wonder how that would work for it.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Yes, a Thursday night totally driven by Shonda dramas may be a great scheduling temptation for ABC. Also I assume that (and IF it's going to work) ms. Rhimes could become on of the most powerful personas in the TV biz. About Shark Tank, I don't think ABC will pull it from Fridays (what could they possible do without ST? on Friday nights?).

    ReplyDelete
  30. EuphemiaWonderlandApril 11, 2014 at 4:03 PM

    Reign is already renewed. And TTP has got 0.4 multiple times and a 0.3 twice.

    ReplyDelete
  31. 1.6 for Shark Tank... something like 25% less than the usual Friday night demo.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Wow! 3.0 for Scandal. I'm sure it'll adjust up. Still, a great number! Go Scandal!!

    ReplyDelete
  33. New series low for Community?

    ReplyDelete
  34. Wow! 3.0 for Scandal. I'm sure it'll adjust up. Still, a great number! Go Scandal!!

    Sad for Community. :'(

    ReplyDelete
  35. Oh shit, 0.4 for Reign.............
    3.0 for Scandal!! Hoping the season finale does at least a 3.0!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I didn't expect that. I wonder if there were pre-emptions.
    Hopefully, Reign will be adjusted up.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Noo Reign!Hope it adjusts up.

    ReplyDelete
  38. If there were pre-emptions, then it means it will be adjusted down, not up

    ReplyDelete
  39. Maybe people didn't know Reign was new since VD wasn't.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I'm hoping there weren't pre-emptions, so there would be a little chance to see it adjusting up :)

    ReplyDelete
  41. Maybe. I wish more people checked Cw's websites and youtube channel. The promos (that say the date of airing) are released after a few hours and I know they are even shown when the episodes of the series end.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Holy cr*p! ST is TBBT killer - at least in terms of viewers. Almost doubling Wonderland's demo. Ha for the so-called "death slot." ABC better switch schedule for remainder of season.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Or they couldn't wait and watched it online as it already aired in Canada..

    ReplyDelete
  44. Wow, Shark Tank didn't do as well as Fridays it did effect it's competition today.

    ReplyDelete
  46. And once again, I say that Reign didn't deserve an early renewal. CW have waited till the upfront to renew it.

    ReplyDelete
  47. You think Shark Tank caused that?

    ReplyDelete
  48. they can't cancel a show and back out of another episode commitement. The episodes WILL be produced. Wether they will be aired is entirely up to the network but that'd be a waste.


    Season 2 WILL be made. No worries on that.


    A third season won't happen the way things look now, Reigns showrunners should probably think about properly ending the show with season 2 to give it a round and satisfying ending. That's the good thing of that situation, the writers knowing beforehand to end it without leaving the show open ended.

    ReplyDelete
  49. 0.4 Reign really? such a great episode and just a .4 GOD i hate this ratings!

    ReplyDelete
  50. they should at least have waited with it, Reign looks pretty weak at the moment. At this point the line that seperated Tomorrow People and Reign is starting to blur.

    ReplyDelete
  51. I agree. I am not saying that reign shouldn't be renewed, but they should have waited till May. it's ratings are not near as good as the other showed they renewed.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Ya gotta love ABC there highest rated show for that night and one of highest rated overall is having a shorter season. I get why that is but its just kinda stupid from a business standpoint.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I wouldn't be surprised if the CW makes the same mistake with The 100 and renew it prematurely. Of all the remaining shows, I really think that TTP is their safest bet. The 0.4 rating for Reign does surprise me though. I'm not a big fan of Reign, but out of the episodes I've seen, I think that last night was definitely one of their best.

    ReplyDelete
  54. I thought Scandal's season was shorter because of Kerry Washington's pregnancy. It was probably out of their control.
