    ———-

    Note: The following labels are based on the household overnights and are subject to change given the availability of other pending data streams. The overnights are your first look at what to potentially expect when the other results come in. And we always take into account other benchmarks including the expected demographic ratings, potential DVR usage, the critical acclaim (or lack of) and the social media presence. Keep in mind, as always, that results for any live sporting event are always approximate.

    -Winners:
    “Dancing With the Stars” (ABC), “The Voice” (NBC), “Scorpion” (CBS)

    -Losers (excluding repeats):
    “The Originals” (CW), “The Following” (Fox), “Jane the Virgin” (CW), “The Night Shift” (NBC)

    ———-

    Ratings Breakdown:
    It was a typical Monday in the household overnights with ABC dominating thanks to “Dancing With the Stars” and NBC the network to beat in all the key young adult demographics thanks to “The Voice.” Healthy “Dancing With the Stars” scored a 9.5 rating/15 share in households from 8-10 p.m., with each of the four half-hours at that 9.5 rating. Comparably, that was consistent from one year earlier. Competing “The Voice” averaged a 6.9/11 in the two-hour block, which was also on par from the year-ago night. In other words, both “Dancing With the Stars” and “The Voice” are poised for more success next season.

    Tops in the 10 p.m. hour was “NCIS: Los Angeles” on CBS at a 5.6/ 9, which inched past fading “Castle” on ABC (5.5/ 9) by one-tenth of a rating point. In the distant No. 3 spot was failing sophomore “The Night Shift” on NBC at a 3.4/ 6, which was 51 percent below the 9:30 p.m. portion of “The Voice” (6.9/10).

    Considering that Nathan Fillion has signed a new contract, chances of an eighth season for “Castle” are probable. But ABC would be wise to utilize “Castle” on another night at this point to free-up the “Dancing With the Stars” lead-out spot for something new.

    Earlier in the evening on CBS were sitcoms “2 Broke Girls” (#3: 4.8/ 8) and “Mike & Molly” (#3: 5.2/ 8) from 8-9 p.m. into the season-finale of drama “Scorpion” at a solid (and third-place) 6.9/10. Congratulations on all involved on “Scorpion” for a very successful first season.

    Elsewhere, both Fox and The CW were flat from one week earlier. Fox aired already renewed freshman drama “Gotham” (#4: 3.3/ 5 at 8 p.m.), which has lost its early season buzz, into tired “The Following” (#4: 2.3/ 3 at 9 p.m.), which is unlikely to return for a fourth season. And The CW populated the night with dramas “The Originals” (#5: 1.0/ 2 at 8 p.m.) into critically acclaimed “Jane the Virgin” (#5: 0.8/ 1 at 9 p.m.), which…worth repeating….is the new show this season most worthy of a larger audience.

  • 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 (We also where possible now post the 18-34 and 25-54 Demo Numbers).

    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.

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