  • Last Week's Final Adjusted Ratings


  • Early Ratings Analysis by Marc Berman (TVMediaInsights)
    The analysis below is based on the early household numbers and are NOT the same as the numbers that will be posted in the above table later. (See the About section below)

    NOTE: The opinions expressed here are NOT those of SpoilerTV but of the Author of this Article, Marc Berman.

    Sunday 5/10/15 Metered Markets

    Household
    Rating/Share
    CBS 5.8/10
    ABC 3.4/ 6
    NBC 3.3/ 6
    Fox 1.4/ 2

    Percent Change from the Year-Ago Oscar Evening – Sunday 5/11/14:
    NBC: +22, CBS: – 3, ABC: – 6, Fox: -30

    ———-

    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:
    Nothing

    -Losers (excluding repeats):
    “A.D. The Bible Continues” (NBC), “Revenge” (ABC), “Battle Creek” (CBS), “American Odyssey” (NBC)

    ———-

    -Ratings Breakdown:
    It was an easy household overnight victory for CBS on this depressed second Sunday in May, with an advantage of 71 percent over distant No. 2 ABC. But the Eye net’s combination of two episodes of granddaddy “60 Minutes” (7 p.m.: 6.1/12; 8 p.m.: 6.4/ 11), the season-finale of “The Good Wife” (6.7/11) and canceled “Battle Creek” (4.0/ 7), which led each half-hour, is unlikely to generate much interest among adults 18-49.

    ABC populated the evening with veteran “America’s Funniest Home Videos” (#3: 3.6/ 7), the two-hour season-finale of tiring “Once Upon a Time” (#2: 3.3/ 6 from 8-10 p.m.) and the series-finale of “Revenge,” which exited at a modest 3.5/ 6 at 10 p.m. (#3). Once a water-cooler worthy entry, “Revenge” could never rebound after moving to Sunday in season two.

    NBC, which is approximate, got a boost in the 7 p.m. hour with coverage of the PGA Golf Tour at a 5.8/12 in the household overnights. And that led into an 8-9 p.m. edition of “Dateline” (#3: 2.8/ 5), “A.D. The Bible Continues” (#3: 2.9/ 5 at 9 p.m.) and “American Odyssey,” which earned its cancellation stripes at a mere 1.8/ 3 (#3) at 10 p.m.

    And Fox filled the night with repeats of “The Simpsons” (#4: 1.0/ 2) and “Bob’s Burgers” (#4: 0.9/ 2) from 7-8 p.m., followed by “The Simpsons” (#4: 1.8/ 3), “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” (#4: 1.6/ 3), a repeat of “Family Guy” (#4: 1.5/ 2) and “an original installment of “Bob’s Burgers” (#4: 1.4/ 2) from 8-10 p.m.

  • 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
    Ratings FAQ.

  1. Looking at the HH's I think it'll be

    1,7-1,8 for Once
    1,6 for Revenge

    ReplyDelete
  2. What was the last HH for Once Upon a Time? 3.1?

    ReplyDelete
  3. 'The series-finale of “Revenge,” which exited at a modest 3.5/ 6 at 10 p.m"-So why the loser tag Marc?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Cause he is Marc, no explanation needed. And so he could laugh at people going mad here.

    ReplyDelete
  5. Ratings? Who cares about ratings when it's UPFRONTS WEEK! Surprised this came early though! C'mon CBS, where are those renewals already!

    ReplyDelete
  6. It seems really low for the OUAT finale, I think Revenge did okay.

    ReplyDelete
  7. It's on par with their latest numbers. I'm not surprised it didn't rose.
    But HH are tricky and they could rise to 1,9-2,0, U never know.

    ReplyDelete
  8. "tiring Once Upon a Time" what does that mean?

    ReplyDelete
  9. That he has lost his inspiration and just writes stuff to fill his place.

    ReplyDelete
  10. He's so inconsistent.

    ReplyDelete
  11. i hope 1,4 or more for Revenge

    ReplyDelete
  12. CBS is really letting us wait. Very unusual from the network that usually has a mass renewal announcement in March.

    ReplyDelete
  13. So Revenge grew on OUAT on HH and its up 5 tenths from the last time. I'm guessing Revenge did around 1.4-1.5

    ReplyDelete
  14. Knew Revenge wouldn't go up much. It'll probably skew younger. OUAT won't be strong enough to launch a new drama. ABC needs a drama with some buzz at 9.

    ReplyDelete
  15. It means that OUAT underwent erosion over time

    ReplyDelete
  16. Ok, so my guess would be:
    1.8 for the 2 hours of OUAT
    1.4 for the Revenge finale (though it could be a 1.5)

    ReplyDelete
  17. I think ABC will launch Of Kings and Prophets on Sunday, probably at 9 pm while Nashville will be the 10 pm occupant.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Guessing 1.7 from OUAT then will adjust to a 1.8
    Then Revenge 1.3

    ReplyDelete
  19. FOX looks terrible! Though we need to wait for the demos to truly decide

    ReplyDelete
  20. Farewell Revenge 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 2:24 PM

    I would be okay if revenge went out on a 1.3

    ReplyDelete
  21. Yeah, the HH are very confusing most of the time. But still, I was hoping to score at least 2.0 for the finale.

    ReplyDelete
  22. That seems to be something between 1.08 and 2.0 for OUAT. I'm pretty sure OUAT will win the demo.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I keep forgetting about ratings with the upfronts! Looks like OUAT rose a small bit. I hope it rise more for S5.

    ReplyDelete
  24. In the final ratings it got a 3.1.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Fox has been very confusing on Sundays all season. One week they had all-new episodes of every show, then they had all repeats except for one and next they doubled up on LMOE episodes. No wonder its ratings are inconsistent.

    ReplyDelete
  26. My guess is The Family and Castle on Sundays. Kings maybe as a filler during the ms break.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Announcing a final season and move Nashville at 10 pm Sundays will be the best thing ABC can do with it.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I think The Family will go to Wednesdays at 10. Maybe Castle moves to Sunday, but I could also see it moving to Tuesday.

    ReplyDelete
  29. So I was right, Revenge was more watched than OUAT !
    PS : I love both, I'm not a Revenge fan / OUAT hater, I'm just noticing ^^

    ReplyDelete
  30. Last week, Revenge got a 3.3, while OUAT 3.1, but OUAT was more watched than Revenge ( 5.3 milions versus 4.8 milions ) :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. People are saying Quantico will go to Tuesdays 10pm cause it's compatible with SHIELD. But wouldn't be surprised if they put Castle there.
    There are so many options and just God knows what ABC is planning.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Yeah, ABC really does have a lot of series, both returning and new ones. Maybe Quantico is compatible with SHIELD, but SHIELD itself isn't exactly pulling high numbers. And look at what happened to Forever in the 10 pm slot. Only if SHIELD moves to 10, then I can see Quantico at Tuesdays.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I'm getting really concerned about OUAT. It seems to be slipping. It may need The Muppets as a lead in to help rejuvenate it. I thought the season finale was horrible and I'm skeptical about returning next season. If CBS could air something worthy in the 8pm timeslot, I may be done with it. I don't care about Emma becoming the dark one or searching for Merlin.

    ReplyDelete
  34. What do U mean by doesn't deserve?

    ReplyDelete
  35. 10Pm Tuesday's is a tough spot for ABC (not the only one). Castle has a more stable fanbase so moving to Tuesdays could work for the show, I assume this will be its finale season.
    We'll have to wait and see what the peops at ABC will decide/reveal tomorrow.

    ReplyDelete
  36. U mean it doesn't deserves to be a lead in. That's different.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I would love to see a new OUAT storyline with The Muppets LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Low... if OUAT doesn't rise S5 is the last. Hope A&E is wise & put no cliffhanger... :(

    ReplyDelete
  39. OUAT is one of the last problems on Abc and it's their best performer on sunday nights, don't worry :)

    ReplyDelete
  40. Big soaps like The Family starring Joan Allen, or Boom will be great at 9. They need new Desperate Housewives-ish hit!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I know but people keep quitting & hating it. It annoys me. Hope S6 is a go but I hope in no cliffhanger thou. Hope A&E are wise,

    ReplyDelete
  42. AoS will be okay at 10 with 1.2-.1.4 in 18-49. Quantico may to be their next big hit like Murder.

    ReplyDelete
  43. plus don't actors have a 5 years contract?

    ReplyDelete
  44. It's too early to think about season 6, we need to see the ratings for season 5 :)

    ReplyDelete
  45. Devon Maxwell-PierceMay 11, 2015 at 3:26 PM

    Any theories as to why? Is there a sticky show or two?

    ReplyDelete
  46. yes and that scares me so A&E please put no cliffhanger in S5. I think it'll reach 1.0 or 0.9 so bye OUAT... I'm fine if there is no cliffhanger.

    ReplyDelete
  47. did Revenge end with a cliffhanger?

    ReplyDelete
  48. Your pessimism is starting to bother me a bit to be honest. I don't think OUAT will ever hit ratings that low, its rating trajectory doesn't foresee slips that hard

    ReplyDelete
  49. I'll be ok only with no cliffhanger in S5, you?

    ReplyDelete
  50. Me too, but I really hope there'll be a season 6 too! :)

    ReplyDelete
  51. ouat was good but now the show is awful the writers only worried about make a shipper show

    ReplyDelete
  52. Exactly.OUAT was never on the edge and I think wheater there will be a season 6 or not will become clear soon enough to write a proper ending.

    ReplyDelete
  53. The writers didn't make it a shipper show, the fans did.

    ReplyDelete
  54. UGH OUAT please get atleast a 1.8 then adjust up to a 1.9

    ReplyDelete
  55. Not really sure ABC wants AoS to be okay, especially those numbers aren't okay.
    Not sure if they'll go for that move, but we won't wait to long to find out.

    ReplyDelete
  56. 2 kind-of cliffhangers. Though they felt more like letting us know the characters future instead of "There should be a season 5!".

    ReplyDelete
  57. atleast OUAT will probably win night

    ReplyDelete
  58. I'm guessing it has to do with POI, CM (contracts), MS/TGW (scheduling - probably shared timeslot?) and how to wrap CSI. It seems like CBS got the cancellations out of the way on Friday and is working to piece what's left together. Sadly, I think that means we're stuck with TOC.

    ReplyDelete
  59. let's hope A&E can please us.

    ReplyDelete
  60. good. I can watch it now yay thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  61. ok ok sorry. I will quit saying it. But please allow me to be worried next year. I will try to be optimist thou. Can I still comment on your stuff? Please!!!

    ReplyDelete
  62. Farewell Revenge 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 3:52 PM

    It's highly unlikely that OUAT will ever fall this low

    ReplyDelete
  63. Not a real cliffhanger
    The same as Desperate Housewives

    ReplyDelete
  64. This looks bad for OUAT in the fall with the finale looking like it hit a 1.8-1.9. Revenge went out on good terms I guess.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Calm down, my point is there is no need to be worried. For all we know OUAT finds another way to sway in back viewers. I think it's better for you to wait and see instead of just being nervous about what will happen next. Since we are not from the US we can't give OUAT rating, and thus our impact lies solely on the support we can give it, and screaming it'll do badly next season isn't what OUAT needs right now. It needs for people to root for it and and to believe it will do better, otherwise people may bail thinking it'll be cancelled. So take a deep breath, and remember: the show is still among the top rated shows on ABC

    ReplyDelete
  66. Farewell Revenge 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 4:00 PM

    I'm glad that Revenge got OUAT as a lead in for its series finale. Heres to hoping it will at least get a 1.3.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Don't worry about Once Upon A Time guys, no matter its ratings we will have a sixth season AT LEAST. Besides, Paul Lee loves the show. I will never cancel it without giving it a second chance.

    ReplyDelete
  68. OUAT steady at 1.7. I was hoping for a 1.8, but let's wait for final ratings.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Revenge had its biggest 18-34 of the season, that's my takeaway.
    1.3 not too shabby, but I wish it went on a higher note

    ReplyDelete
  70. What a sad looking Sunday, especially when you take OUAT out.

    ReplyDelete
  71. yes ok. Friend. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Revenge skewed really young with a 1.1 in 18-34. 1.3 is ok. Wasn't expecting any higher.

    ReplyDelete
  73. OUAT halves: 1.8/1.7/1.7/1.7
    Revenge: 1.3/1.3

    ReplyDelete
  74. Hoped for Once and Revenge to raise a bit more but okay.
    Think fall will be better for Once again. Especially if they work a bit on their casting. #JoeLandoAsMerlyn

    ReplyDelete
  75. Wow Sunday is desperate if people watch OUAT.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Glad the halves for Revenge were steady.

    ReplyDelete
  77. The Good Wife ended on a more upbeat note after going fractional

    ReplyDelete
  78. Farewell Revenge 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 4:06 PM

    At least Revenge got exactly the ratings it started this season with

    ReplyDelete
  79. I was hoping and expecting higher for OUAT and Revenge. The Good Wife got a nice 0.3 jump for the finale at least after all the horrible spring massacre. FOX did awful. What is up with those 1.2s across the board? And NBC is a joke.

    Winners: No one

    Honorable Mention: No One

    Losers: A.D., American Odyssey, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Battle Creek

    ReplyDelete
  80. OUAT #1
    Revenge #2


    ABC rules

    ReplyDelete
  81. I expected a bit more forma Revenge's finales, bit I guess a 1.3 is ok.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Yep, and it's only one tenth away from its finale last year. While not the 1.5 I expected, it was still pretty good, among the highest rated episodes this season, and that's a good way to go

    ReplyDelete
  83. And now with AD's 0.9, NBC reaches a new record: all of its freshman shows this season went fractional.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Come on, OUAT deserves an Honorable Mention for being very steady and winning the night.

    ReplyDelete
  85. Yikes at FOX, this is not good, decent for Revenge and good for OUAT
    TGW showed Madam Secretary is a bomb, i think it could do very good in a good timeslot.
    AD gone fractional, lol NBC.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Farewell Revenge 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 4:09 PM

    I believe if OUAT had got like a 2.0 then Revenge would've gotten a 1.4 to 1.5

    ReplyDelete
  87. Maybe, ok. I just thought it could have gotten a bump for the finale.

    ReplyDelete
  88. nicolemuenchseidelMay 11, 2015 at 4:09 PM

    Half hour break downs please... I want to see how OUAT fared over the two hours.

    ReplyDelete
  89. I expected higher from Revenge. The Good Wife did actually good.

    ReplyDelete
  90. ouat 1.8/1.7 and 1.7/1.7

    ReplyDelete
  91. When will we hear CBS renewals? Today or tomorrow?

    ReplyDelete
  92. TGW 1.3/1.2
    Revenge 1.3/1.3
    Battle Creek 0.9/0.8
    American Odyssey 0.5/0.5
    AD 0.9/0.9

    ReplyDelete
  93. At the very latest Wednesday when they have their Upfronts.

    ReplyDelete
  94. No idea but there could be some tough negotiations with studios or cast members.

    ReplyDelete
  95. Whoa? A.D. slips under 1.0 demo. I don't think it should return.

    ReplyDelete
  96. It's tough for OUAT wheb U renenber it started the season with 3,1 but still topping the night during finales for 2 hours is just great for the show

    ReplyDelete
  97. Bobs Burgers did great, held 100% of its lead-in. Nice nice.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Kudos to Revenge for rising for its series finale and staying steady throughout the half hour. It demo was equal to the combine ratings of Battle Creek and American Odyssey.

    ReplyDelete
  99. So TGW spikes up from 0.9 to 1.3 without MS lead-in. No real surprise there. CBS you messed up Sunday nights with MS. Face it.

    ReplyDelete
  100. It started strong just because of Frozen Arc.

    ReplyDelete
  101. Have to agree, but it looks like all new NBC shows no matter if its quality or not, gets rejected or loses viewers fast. Even Blacklist , The Voice and Grimm dropped a lot.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Jean Paul (Alexi)May 11, 2015 at 4:16 PM

    Sorry for being off-topic but..."inconsistent". Your comment kind of reminds me of Damon Lindelof's tweet, "The weather in L.A. this week has been as consistent as the third season of LOST."
    I love his writing, I can't wait for The Leftovers' return, and I wish Lindelof created another account, since I love the missing tweets that I could read in the last months (some sites shared them).

    ReplyDelete
  103. Actually MS helped TGW in the beginning of the season. Since both shows retunred in March, they have fallen apart without football. MS is not to blame for TGW's bad ratings.

    ReplyDelete
  104. Kudos to TGW, it retained 100 percent of its lead in, it shows how much Madam Secretary was killing it

    ReplyDelete
  105. TGW's bad ratings have, from what I read, much more to do with the creative direction of season 6 which hasn't been well-received. As I wrote below, MS is not to blame for them.

    ReplyDelete
  106. I would say The Family at 9pm and Nashville at 10pm.

    ReplyDelete
  107. Possibly. Or The Family goes to Wednesday 10 pm.

    ReplyDelete
  108. nicolemuenchseidelMay 11, 2015 at 4:21 PM

    Thanks, but what are the millions of viewers for the half hours?

    ReplyDelete
  109. Heroes Reborn trailer at the upfronts right now! Twitter is saying that the trailer strongly implies that the cheerleader is dead.

    ReplyDelete
  110. But TGW improved over MS by 2 tenths with low 60 Minutes and MS was its lead in before and it got 0.9

    ReplyDelete
  111. It really wasn't. Look at the ratings for MS and TGW before both shows went on a break. They were both doing well before the 2month break.

    ReplyDelete
  112. OMG OMG !!


    Need this see this ASAP !

    ReplyDelete
  113. TGW already in its 6th season... leadin doesn't mean that much to it.

    ReplyDelete
  114. You mean Claire from original Heroes?

    ReplyDelete
  115. Yeah, imo. But still quite the decline.

    ReplyDelete
  116. It will be posted as soon as NBC release it.

    ReplyDelete
  117. I'm sad Revenge didn't get much more viewers and demo but still better than what it got for the past few months

    ReplyDelete
  118. And please use the Open Discussion thread for off-topic discussions in future.

    Thank you

    ReplyDelete
  119. Sorry, too many tabs open today with all the madness going on with the schedules!

    ReplyDelete
  120. I was hoping that Revenge would break the 5 million viewer mark. But at least its demo increased.

    ReplyDelete
  121. No worries. I have 23 tabs currently open lol

    ReplyDelete
  122. It was the final episode for Kalinda so folks tuned into TGW to say goodbye to Archie Panjabi. Also it was the season finale which is usually a higher rating.

    ReplyDelete
  123. Wish Revenge would've ended higher but finale was underwhelming... Currently watching Once finale and so far I think Revenge should've gotten the 2 hour finale... Last years Once finale was better

    ReplyDelete
  124. Oh right, everyone from CM but MGG needs to renew their contract, yeah, I'd forgotten about that. That's probably what's delaying the announcement of its renewal, or cancellation. I have a question about something I don't understand very well. It's the studio that pays the actors, right? Or does the network where it airs have a say in hiring/firing actors?

    ReplyDelete
  125. i exept more for ouat but i hope next season ouat will come strong

    ReplyDelete
  126. Revengefan 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 5:38 PM

    Doesn't matter what ratings revenge got pretty pointless seen as been cancelled .

  127. Revengefan 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 5:39 PM

    1.7 it did it in danger zone it be gone by end next season

    ReplyDelete
  128. Revengefan 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 5:39 PM

    Nope

  129. Revengefan 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 5:44 PM

    revenge ratings seem pointless don't know why they post them.

    ReplyDelete
  130. TGW rose because it was the season finale not because of a better lead in.
    The whole season was a rating disaster but they will still get a 7th (I think last) season to wrap things up

    ReplyDelete
  131. Revengefan 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM

    Revenge got no where near 3.5 if did they would renewed it only reason it ending I still dont know how in god name she has Victoria heart.

    ReplyDelete
  132. I'm glad Revenge went out with a respectable number, all things considered. It was a good, satisfying finale. Despite all the bad episodes, storylines and characters, despite the fact that I think it absolutely should've ended (now if not a year ago), I'll always remember the show fondly.

    ReplyDelete
  133. Revengefan 2011-2015May 11, 2015 at 7:25 PM

    Wy she sept with Ben we will never know.

    ReplyDelete
  134. I have faith it will be in the 2's for the fall if they promote it a lot like they do every season.

    ReplyDelete
  135. I will be amused if people bothered to tune in to the series finale of a show only to abandon it and sleep during the final half-hour.
