Today's Early Overnight Ratings

This table shows the early overnight ratings. These ratings are normally adjusted later in the day when all the ratings have been consolidated to take into account any local preemptions and/or overruns. You can find all the final adjusted numbers in our Ratings Database. (See the About section below for details about ratings)

If you are new to ratings or still confused, we recommend you read this excellent Ratings FAQ.

“NCIS” R (CBS), “The Voice” (NBC), “NCIS: Angeles” R (CBS)

-Ratings Breakdown:
CBS topped the Tuesday household overnights despite airing all repeats with its line-up of “NCIS” (#2: 6.7 rating/11 share), “NCIS: Los Angeles” (#1: 6.4/10) and “Person of Interest” (#1: 4.9/ 8). But NBC is the network to beat among adults 18-49 (and other key demos), of course, with its line-up of “The Voice” (#1 for the night: 7.5/12), “About a Boy” (#2: 4.4/ 7), “Growing Up Fisher” (#2: 3.7/ 6) and a repeat of “Chicago Fire” (#2: 2.7/ 5). “About a Boy” and Growing Up Fisher” owe any audience they have to “The Voice,” no doubt.

On ABC, “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” finished third in the 8 p.m. hour, with a typical 3.9/ 6 in the overnights. While there is every reason to believe “S.H.I.E.L.D.” will be back for season two, this is not the big hit the network was hoping for. Next on the alphabet net were repeats of comedies “The Goldbergs” (#3: 2.2/ 3) and “Trophy Wife” (#4: 1.6/ 3) from 9-10 p.m., followed by week two of the new season of goofy “Celebrity Wife Swap” at a mere (and third-place) 2.1/ 4 at 10 p.m. “The Goldbergs” is a lock for renewal, but chances are the axe will be swinging on “Trophy Wife” in the near future.

Elsewhere, Fox averaged an anemic 1.7/ 3 for the night with its combination of “Glee” (#4: 2.0/ 3), a repeat of “New Girl” (#4: 1.1/ 2) and an original installment of “The Mindy Project” (#3: 1.7/ 3), which built by 55 percent out of the “New Girl” encore. And “The Originals” (#5: 1.3/ 2) and “Supernatural” (#5: 1.4/ 2) increased by 17 percent from one week earlier.

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.
