Ratings Breakdown:
It was an easy overnight victory for ABC care of “The 48th Annual CMA Awards,” hosted by Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood. The annual three-hour extravaganza averaged a dominant 9.7 rating/15 share in households from 8-11 p.m., peaking in the 9 p.m. half-hour at a 10.3/16. Comparably, this was equal to the year-ago telecast (on 11/06/13), and that translated into 16.76 million viewers and a 4.7 rating/13 share among adults 18-49, based on the Live + Same Day data.
Over at CBS, veteran “Survivor” (#2: 5.5/ 9) and “Criminal Minds” (#2: 6.4/10) were close to typical recent overnight levels, which remain down by minor percentages from the year-ago evening. While I will not give anything away on “Survivor” last night, the person who did ultimately depart will go down in the “Survivor” history books as one of the most cowardly competitors.
The Eye net’s freshman “Stalker,” which recently snagged a full season renewal, capped off the night with a second-place 4.8/ 8 at 10 p.m., which was 24 percent below former time period occupant “CSI” on the year-ago evening (6.3/11 on 11/06/13). While patience could always be a virtue, there are other more worthy CBS dramas waiting in the wings (“Battle Creek,” for example) that could eventually step in.
Elsewhere, NBC was the most-improved network on Wednesday once again care of its combination of recent older-skewing entry “The Mysteries of Laura” (#3: 5.3/ 8), veteran “Law & Order: SVU” (#3: 5.0/ 8) and sophomore “Chicago PD” (#3: 4.3/ 7). Of positive note for “The Mysteries of Laura” was overnight growth of 51 percent from year-ago occupant “Revolution” (3.5/ 6 on 11/06/13). And “SVU,” now in season 16, matched its top overnight rating in four weeks despite facing “The CMA Awards.”
On Fox, diluted “Hell’s Kitchen” (#4: 2.9/ 5) led into a soft 2.2/ 3 (#4) for recent entry “Red Band Society” at 9 p.m. And the two, on average, dropped by 27 percent in the overnights from the year-ago two-hour edition of former time period occupant “The X Factor” (3.5/ 6 on 11/06/13). Sophomore “The 100” (#5: 1.1/ 2) on The CW, meanwhile, remained problematic with overnight retention out of “Arrow” (#5: 2.1/ 3) of only 52 percent.

Damn it The 100... I am really starting to hate the Wednesday ratings
ReplyDeleteI just hope the 100 reach 0.6 and pls no adjustement
ReplyDeleteStalker is already dead to me... CM + CSI was a very good combination, I still don't understand why they changed it... CBS has fucked up its schedule this year..
ReplyDeleteIt's such a shame! The episode yesterday was so good! I hope the show will get on peoples radar again.
ReplyDeleteArrow at 2.1.. I hope it gets at least 1.0 this week too.
ReplyDeleteBye Bye The 100!!!! Arrow did great!!!!
ReplyDeleteHope Arrow does 1.0 again :)
ReplyDeletehope that too :). Its their hihest HH number this season.
ReplyDeleteSo why isn't The 100 "worthy of a larger audience", Marc?
ReplyDeleteWhat is happening to The 100? It's such a good show although it is lacking my favorite interaction between Clarke and Bellamy. No I am not a die hard shipper but their relationship brought something interesting to the show. Hope they can bring it back!
ReplyDeleteWell, on paper, Stalker seems really compatible with Criminal Minds, but it definitely isn't delivering ratings-wise.
ReplyDeleteCW promoted the episode a lot, so it really should get that much.
ReplyDeleteThe worst part is that it comes right after Tuesdays comedy woes
ReplyDeleteThe 100 is steady with last week in HH, hopefully it can inch up
ReplyDeleteI think Marc has a thing against genre shows in general, he is very reluctant to name them as winners or even honorable mentions, he only does it when its beyond obvious
ReplyDeleteHa, welcome to the club of "not worthy according to Mark" shows. There are quite of few of us here.
ReplyDeleteThis is very odd that T100 is not doing better.CW made a mistake by not premiering it in the fall last year. Momentum was lost. But I've seen 1st season finally got to Netflix. May be it will get some boost from there.
Well, it was about time we got Felicity's backstory and frankly, I hope we see more Felicity centric episodes in the future.
ReplyDeleteRunning away before I someone posts a spoiler here. I am watching the episode right now.
ReplyDeleteand he is a "retentionista".
ReplyDeleteAnd yes a clear bias for CBS shows IMO.
ReplyDeleteI'm predicting a 0.4 for The 100. It may rise next week, lots of people probably watched the CMAs regardless of scripted show preference
ReplyDeleteI like Stalker. It's nice watching Maggie Q on TV again.
ReplyDeleteThe CW must be frustrated that the bizarre caste system of their network continues. Nothing outside of the DC shows, then SPN and Plec's shows, ever seem to do well.
ReplyDeleteUmmm...The 100 will never recover because the first season was awful. It is pretty much in the same boat as AOS, meaning; it all comes down to first impressions.
ReplyDeleteI still think it's 9pm curse for CW. All their successful shows are 8pms. Is it DVR things or something else- idk, but there is a clear pattern here. (SPN is exception)
ReplyDeleteThe 100 got amazing after episode 3. AoS got better after 15 episodes and it wasn't much improvement either.
ReplyDeleteMe too. I don't want the show gone.
ReplyDeleteThe first season wasn't awful. The first few episodes were setting the story but after that, it picked up the pace and hasn't slowed down at all. It's not for some people but it sure is for me.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I dropped AoS last season, only to marathon it later and find it got so much better. I like this season.
The first season of The 100 was great, it is just not a typical CW show. It can still improve in ratings, they just have to promote it more, but the CW seems to be content with the success of The Flash sadly.
ReplyDeleteStalker 1.5
ReplyDeletePlease gods of television, do not let the 100 adjust down. Please please please. On the other hand, very pleased that Arrow is hanging out to that 1.0.
ReplyDeleteCW
ReplyDeleteArrow 1.0
Really happy for both Arrow and The 100. Now I really hope CW wasn't pre-empted anyhwere.
ReplyDeleteRBS still stable
ReplyDeletenice for the 100.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the 100 and arrow. I think the 100 will be renewed since reign, TO and Jane virgin are pretty much doing the same right now. Ouch PD
ReplyDeleteOuch for PD. Does anyone think it will be cancelled? It's far away from syndication
ReplyDeleteYeah, no,
ReplyDeleteIf CW was preempted I'll cry
ReplyDeleteseriously lol
ReplyDeleteI get confused. What is the original: PD or Fire?
ReplyDeleteomg noooooo thats pretty low for PD :(
ReplyDeleteFire
ReplyDeleteFire
ReplyDeleteOhhh okay thx :)
ReplyDeleteLaura bringing down the night.
ReplyDeleteWith Madam Secretary showing signs of legs on a troubled night for CBS and Scorpion/NO performing solidly, Stalker is not in a good position as a freshman drama during the week. I doubt CBS will yank it since it got a full season order but a second season seems a stretch.
ReplyDeleteABC is gonna relish a number like that. They're regular lineup across all nights dreams of numbers like that.
Thx :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it's torture if it was preempted again!
ReplyDeleteNo.
ReplyDeleteI think it will stay and next week's crossover will help ratings.
ReplyDeleteFingers Crossed For The 100..No Adjusted Down or better Up that would be Fantastic! .
ReplyDeleteYeah, me too.
ReplyDeleteWell, I won't cry, but I am going to yell out furiously.

I thought RB was on
ReplyDeleteI back-order doesn't seem likely atm. If FOX wanted more episode, they would have ordered them by now.
ReplyDeleteWell it wasn't in Chicago this week. Last week it was and it still held.
ReplyDeleteFire is the original. It premiered on the same night as Nashville.
ReplyDeleteWell Reign and TO will have more eps for syndication purposes so I don't think 100 will be renewed
ReplyDeleteAnd me
ReplyDeleteIt won't be cancelled. It'll be dragged to syndication.
ReplyDeletePlease make me happy and say there were no CW pre-emptions!!
ReplyDeletenot nessicarily -The 100 has the lowest 18-34 demo( the demo CW looks at most), is too far way from syndication and Czw never keeps soohmore shows with less than 44 episodes.Itll depend on how the new Midseason shows do.The 100s exspensive too,
ReplyDeleteRight... well we shall see. What else is to premiere on the CW? Izombie, the messangers.....? Anything
ReplyDeleteA little optimistic with that Bye Bye aren't you?
ReplyDeleteI'll throw things.
ReplyDeleteI was never going to try this show as I figured it would be just another teen angsty CW show, but based on the glowing reviews of people on this site whose reviews I trust I gave it a shot. Man was I wrong! This show is top notch excellence! As Euphemia said below, the first 3 episodes set the stage and then the show takes off full steam ahead and never lets up. I only regret not watching it sooner! And today I get the joy of watching the the latest 2 episodes so I can be caught up to watch live next week. Now Wednesdays are even better! So I must respectfully disagree and say the first season was not only good, but blew me away.
ReplyDeleteI'm a new viewer of the100 and I'm reading comments to see if these ratings are ok for the show and apparently they're not. This makes me so sad. On the other hand, if Felicity's centric episode stays at 2.62 or adjusts up, it would be the second highest episode since the premiere of this season! Yay Arrow!
ReplyDeletePedowitz seems to like The 100 a lot, so hopefully that helps at renewal time. You could say The 100 is steady, which is a good thing! It is just lower than expected. It is just an awesome show, hopefully people catch up on season 1 otherwise I don't see how the ratings will go up. I hate for it to end, it is so different in a very awesome way - I love it.
ReplyDeleteMy other Wednesday favorite Chicago PD was also down ... :-(
TVBTN isn't showing any pre-emptions.
ReplyDeleteTVBTN isn't showing any.
ReplyDeleteT100 fell in the second half hour?? HOW the heck did anyone watching turn that episode off?! Crazy. That was some quality writing. Fingers crossed all the new Netflix watchers who are so abuzz about the series realize they need to start watching S2 if they want another season. Would be a real shame for network TV to lose this series, but worse for The CW especially. It's the only show like it on TV. And the fact that it's on The CW could do worlds of good for them. Show gets reviewed incredibly well by critics. I really hope they see the need to let this audience grow. Because I truly believe it WILL. Syndication and sophomore slump be damned!
ReplyDeletePedowitz liking a show or not will have to with the renwal/cancel descion, it'll be about cost to make the show,18-34 demo numbers( the 100 aren't good),closeness or not to syndication,international sales,DVr numbers,online viewing numbers
ReplyDeleteI need that 0.6 to stick, please don't adjust down The 100! You're too good to get cancelled!
ReplyDeleteOh The 100 ... why you not getting more viewers! People are missing out! I hope it adjusts up ... but alas, as long as it doesn't adjust down!
ReplyDeleteSo basically the people who are watching Arrow are not ready to have their minds blown with The 100? o_O
No, for now I'm just realistic!!! But, it's CW, crazy things happen there!!! kkkkkkk
ReplyDeleteJust joking!!! But the competition this year for renewal is tough.
Brandy is funny that you say this considering you say Reign is a network favorite ALL THE TIME.
ReplyDeleteReign numbers are worth than The 100, and it is also an expensive show. I think it matters if Pedowitz is liking/supporting a show. Best example BATB.
ReplyDeleteI will be happy already if it manages to hang at 0.6 this week. Next week it will finally have normal competition so maybe it gets to 0.7, one can hope!
ReplyDeleteCW seems happy:
ReplyDeletevia press notes:
Last night's Arrow
(Goth Felicity!) was the series' highest rated episode of the season in
A18-34 (1.0/4), M18-34 (1.1/5), W18-34 (0.9/3), and M18-49 (1.2/4), and
was the most watched (2.62M) episode since the season premiere.
Week to week, Arrow was up +11% in A18-34, +22% in M18-34, +13% in W18-34, and +5% in total viewers, and flat in A18-49 (1.0/3).
It was Arrow's best A18-34, W18-34, and M18-49 performance since 1/29/14.
THE 100 had its most watched (1.72M) episode of the season last night, and also hit a season high in A18-49 (0.6/2).
THE 100 was up +16% over last week in total viewers, up +20% in A18-49 and steady in A18-34 (0.4/1).
For the night, The CW was up +9% week to week in total viewers (2.17M), +17% in A18-34 (0.7/3), and up +14% in A18-49 (0.8/2).
So happy The 100 went up! Maybe next week they'll go up again without the competition of the World Series or CMA Awards,
ReplyDeleteBatB was renewd cause it's cheap to make,sold for thee seasons overseas to at least 30 countries and it did well in digital viewing and was CBS owned and had 44 episodes so it was halfway to syndication.-not cause Oedowitz liked it but beacsuse it made mney.The 100 is not CBS,has the lowest 18-34 demo on CW ,is exspensive to make,far wpfrom syndication.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Arrow's total viewers keep rising week after week. And I mean, rising since "Sara" as "The Calm" still had the highest numbers this season.
ReplyDeleteThanks, that is the spirit I am looking for! The 100 went up, that is all that matters. I hate people bashing at the The 100 show just make look their cw show better.
ReplyDeleteReign first three episodes in 18-34 were 0,4 steady whereas The 100 in 18-34 had 0,5 - 0,5- and 0,6 according to Darkufo Rating table 2014/2015, where do you get your numbers from? Oh wait - I don't care. If you get fun out of it, bashing at show for no reason, have at it but I think you are on the wrong site.
ReplyDeleteThese show had hard competition last weeks especially the 100. Going against World Series & CMA. They did good.
ReplyDeleteArrow stable and remain the same as last week show that Felicity or no Felcity still works
ReplyDeleteI didn't even bring up Reign you did so why?I get the 1-34& Tvbythenumbers and also another poster starship mentioned The 100 having the lowest 18-34
ReplyDeleteYay Arrow!!!! There was an increase in viewership. Let this trend continue.
ReplyDeleteI am happy The 100 improved. You deserve so much more The 100.
I think so too. I hope they can keep it, preferably going up a notch going into the season.
ReplyDeleteConsidering Arrow went against the world series and cma awards and still rose the viewers and some demos, i'll say theCW must be dancing on the roof!
ReplyDeleteWhat if it adjust up to a 1.1? Ahhh... Daydreaming...
Ikr.
ReplyDelete
