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.

These don't work when I click on them.
ReplyDeleteI'm really thrown by Cedric getting more viewers then TM.. I wonder if they will pull TM early or air the 13 episodes as scheduled?
ReplyDeleteOh God The Messengers. Such a cool episode though.
ReplyDeleteGreat retention by Beyonf the Tank. ABC doesn't even need there TGIF comedy block anymore.
ReplyDeleteShark Tank is hurting TAR. Put it back on Sundays, CBS!
Grimm finally goes fractional.
The Messengers' ratings make me cry.
0.9 for Grimm. Congrats NBC, your scheduling has taken a renewed show and turned it fractional. Next season for sure will be Grimm's last.
ReplyDeleteI feel bad about The Messengers...
ReplyDeleteThey should move TM to a new day and time this Summer. Having incompatible lead-ins (and a bad slot in the first place) is really killing it :(
ReplyDeleteOh, Grimm, I don´t know whether it is tbecause of the hour or the story :/
ReplyDeletei don't know why they didn't just premiere it in the summer with BATB on Thursdays
ReplyDeleteBeyond The Tank is a keeper. I wouldn't be surprised at all if ABC gets rid of the Friday comedy block and focuses on comedies Tuesday/Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteShark Tank went slightly below my expectations (1.7) while Beyond the Tank went slightly above (1.4). Overall, solid combo! Hold it holds next week
ReplyDeleteLikely both. Grimm was falling before the move. However, the scheduling did not help. If NBC wanted to make sure that The Blacklist and Grimm would never recover and they were going to be completely dependent on Dick Wolf shows and The Voice, they did it with their terrible scheduling.
ReplyDeleteGood for Blue bloods and H50! Terrible for the CW! Hart of Dixie definitely did better! Underwhelming for ABC. Nonetheless, what was promoted?
ReplyDeleteI think they wanted to establish a scripted stable ratings performer on Friday nights, since SPN managed to get around 0.6 in there and they have similar elements. Though yeah, you can't compare a solid-performing veteran to a freshman series. Sucks if they just wanted to kill the series. It's good so far - not as top-notch like the other 3 CW freshman shows this year, but not Cult-bad.
ReplyDeleteHart of Dixie did better than THe Messengers and Reign, so that's something, but I don't think that The CW will give it a Season 5, even with The Vampire Diaries collapsing and making it look good.
ReplyDeleteIs Barber Battle from a relative of Pedowitz's? Because it has severely damaged WLIIA and he still hasn't pulled it.
ReplyDeleteI know, it Has already been cancelled sooo nth can be done
ReplyDeleteHow is that underwhelming?
ReplyDelete5 seasons for a friday show on NBC is really really good
ReplyDeleteWell i expected a bit higher. I do not know why
ReplyDeleteIt was promoted on the Flash facebook. I think they had a flash poster.
ReplyDeleteTM... At least the demo didn't drop. It did lose a few eyeballs. But it could've been worse with the Avengers against it last night.
ReplyDeleteI still don't know why it's on schedule to begin with. CW obviously sees more value in this show than its viewers.
ReplyDeleteI still think there's a 5-10% chance of HoD making it either as a summer series or an in-season series, something they can show in-between season breaks. I just don't think they can partner JtV with anything else.
ReplyDeleteiZombie is a sure renewal. The Messengers, on the other hand - I don't know. Yes, the ratings are beyond bad, but it's like they wanted it to do bad from the very beginning.
Grimm has gone fractional
ReplyDeleteAmazing rating and retention for Beyond the Tank
Very very low for 20/20
FOX keeps playing it safe by airing movies
Arguably OK for CBS & The CW
TM went againts The Avenegers AKA the biggest opening of all time.
ReplyDeleteIt will bounce back next week. Hoping for a 0.4 !!
I'm wishing it'd bounce back from the preemption last week :( Why it's getting these numbers is beyond me :(
ReplyDeleteHow has Barber Battle "severely damaged WLIIA"?
ReplyDeleteI wonder what is H5O's fate ?
ReplyDeleteReruns were getting 0.5s and now because of that lead-in an original is getting 0.3.
ReplyDeleteSo that i understand this right because i always have problems understandIng it:
ReplyDeleteAge of Ultron probably attracts the younger audience right? So does that mean that most shows will fall in 18-34 but not 25-54? Is that also the reason that CBS was not Affected?
It's pretty much already decided I guess.
ReplyDeleteI Would say bubble leaning towards renewal
ReplyDeleteIt's already dead. Bury it already.
ReplyDeleteI think it's bubble too... Though I could see CBS putting another show next year on Friday, just a feeling...
ReplyDeleteThe CW rarely pulls shows from their schedule. Only one I can think of is The Beautiful Life.
ReplyDeleteBoth I guess, it's been getting mostly 1.0s after the move and now a sub 1.
ReplyDeleteJust another terrible scheduling move from NBC.
ReplyDeleteRenewed. Rumor has it the cast/crew were told at the end of March.
ReplyDeleteI really cringe at the fall schedule NBC will come up with. They have the shows to rebound, but they haven't provided any confidence that they know how to place them in any logical order on schedule.
ReplyDeleteIt held up very well.
ReplyDeleteI think it's performing better than expected LOL but yeah, it's totally destroying WLIIA and TM, too
ReplyDeleteI'm just waiting to see how bad and pathetic NBC's upcoming schedule is going to be.
ReplyDeleteIA, it's incompetence like this that drives away confidence in their shows.
ReplyDeleteVery true.
ReplyDeleteDo you have a link?
ReplyDeleteFirst time I've heard about it.
ReplyDeleteTrue. There's that to at least be happy about. It outlasted expectations.
ReplyDeleteNBC really hurt The Blacklist and just look how that new NBC Thursday turned out.
ReplyDeleteAge of Ultron has barely affected the TV rating.
ReplyDeleteI have a link, but I would be violating a crew members privacy if I provided it.
ReplyDeleteShh. You'll wake Brandy.
ReplyDeleteThough I think if even if there was a chance. It'll depend on Rachel and I don't think she wants to come back.
Why does a TV season have to stretch right into May? Why don’t they start 23-episode long series
ReplyDeletein September and end them in March? It shouldn’t affect filming time, they’d just have to begin shooting a month or two earlier and they’d be finished earlier too.
No one is watching TV once DST hits. All ratings drop like a stone. Run a season from Sept to March.
Also, quite thankful there are no Royal Baby specials this time.
ReplyDeleteYup, tanked what used to be their biggest hit, sad really.
ReplyDeleteVery respectable debut for BTT.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean? If it's a public link then surely it's available to anyone to see?
ReplyDeleteVery pathetic move by NBC. In hindsight, the move really made no sense.
ReplyDeleteIf I could renew 1 show with low ratings it would be The Messengers. I really wanna see like 4 seasons of these show but the ratings are awful... :(
ReplyDeleteWell yeah true
ReplyDeleteSo that's Barber Battle's fault? Not at all.
ReplyDeleteIt didn't help that they scheduled it between 2 flop shows and expected it to thrive in their weak spot.
ReplyDeleteFriday already has its audience that doesn't go out so a movie premiere was never going to change that. I have never seen a movie premiere affect tv ratings and never will.
ReplyDeleteI hope Grimm gets better ratings for its last two episodes of the season.
ReplyDeleteThe March 31st posting.
ReplyDeletehttps://instagram.com/johnniepurvis/
I suppose though CBS was really hurt by Bruce Jenner interview. Speaking of which, no bounce or anything for 20/20.
ReplyDeleteThanks @Katie although there is no post for 31st March
ReplyDeleteI knew it was going to fail because those new dramas sucked. It is also competing with Scandal.
ReplyDeletehttps://instagram.com/p/062PIYwb60/?taken-by=johnniepurvis
ReplyDeleteThanks. I guess I read it differently and it's more of wishful thinking.
ReplyDeleteI guess we'll know for sure soon :)
It was a very foolish move overall.
ReplyDeleteI'm tired of stating that TM deserves a much better treatment. But I'm just happy it won't go past this 0,2 that would be shameful.
ReplyDeleteLets see what the DVR numbers say.
I am leaning more to cancellation, but we'll see.
ReplyDeleteExactly.
ReplyDeleteNBC has this theory that if a show hits a certain level, it is able to stand alone and still perform at that level without any assistance. Thus, they routinely give it low rated lead ins and are shocked when the shows do not keep their previous ratings.
The only show which has proven to hold up decently well with horrible lead ins is Chicago Fire. It's an exception, not the norm. Everything else has tanked completely without assistance. And that's normal. TV history has proven again and again that viewers watch nights and blocks, not individual TV programs week after week.
NBC is scheduling against logic and against the sustainability of their shows. Because of their scheduling, they've given both Grimm and The Blacklist shorter lifespans. And the sad thing is they likely won't learn in the future and will do it for the next decent performing show that they find. It's why their whole lineup will consist of the Voice, Dateline, The Biggest Loser, and Dick Wolf shows.
HoD won't be renewed sadly,it has enough episodes for syndication & a proper ending( which is what CW cares about for show with two full season or more)& CW is Absolutley not going to cancel only one show Scott Evrn said the sets are torn down and there was an article in HR ( I think-about Rachel not living in LA anymore to protect her baby daughter from paparazzi .If Cw paired Jane eith TO this season,they'll pair it with something else next year(people have Reign/Jane or Jane /Cheerleader Death Squad on fantasy schedules).
ReplyDeleteLol at The Messengers.
ReplyDeleteAmen.
ReplyDeleteSad but true, they never learn.
ReplyDeleteYep, I don't see anything definitive there.
ReplyDeleteLOL CW

Yeah I think that's a wish too..
ReplyDeleteGrimm hit a 0.8 at the half? Wow. That's getting into pull territory.
ReplyDeleteI'm lmao at the CW.
ReplyDeleteI love that idea. Maybe The Middle + Last Man Standing + Fresh Off The Boat + 1 new comedy on Tuesday then SHIELD at 10pm. Then Wednesday will have The Goldbergs + Black-ish + Modern Family + new comedy + most promising new show. Let's face it, Nashville is so going to take Revenge's Sunday slot (no new show on any broadcast network has survived past one season in that slot recently, and even veterans don't survive past two seasons in that slot with CSI, The Mentalist, Revenge being prime examples.)
ReplyDeleteI know, .9/.8.
ReplyDeleteScott Porter did say the sets were gone, but it makes sense. They stopped filming in october so even if they planned to renew it, they weren't going to keep them around for 9 months, until they start filming again on july. It would cost too much money. As for Rachel, no one knows if she left LA for good. She and her fiancé have owned a house in Canada for years and that's where they were lately. They've been there in the past. Hayden's family lives there. Also, Hayden was photographed in LA earlier this week. Maybe, Rachel is back as well. We don't know anything for sure. Let's wait and see what the CW says. We'll know soon.
ReplyDeleteThe Messengers premiered at a 0.28
ReplyDeleteI like HoD but I've accepted it's over.I never expected it to go past season four anyway,what with it always being low rated & only getting s4 for syndication & wrap up purposes ( plus before Messengers premired,it was the second lowest rated cw show ,barely doing better than Reign& it's 0.2-0.3 in the last part of s3)
ReplyDeleteI also realized that when Czw gave other mid rated/low rated shows early renewals( Reign,Jane,The 100) that there wouldn't be room for HoD & IZombie doing well,-Czw set it up to do well so they had high hopes/intentions of renewing it-& that they choose to renew those shows instead of HoD
ReplyDeleteNo
ReplyDeleteI'm not holding my breath. Between the move to 8 p.m. (another brilliant decision by NBC) and the seeming inability of the shows producers to actually write a storyline that fans want to watch, well, I'm just glad the show has already been renewed.
ReplyDeleteNext season will be their last.
ReplyDeleteAgain, unless you work at the CW, these are just speculations. I also don't think HOD will get renewed, but we don't know anything for sure. HOD isn't the second lowest rated show on the CW. It does better than The Messengers, Reign and it does the same than JTV. TO and The 100 aren't doing much better. Also, it aired on the worst time slot.
ReplyDeleteAnd had a 0.235 for Ep 2.
ReplyDeleteBatB dosent count as its a summer show.tvbym lowest to highest
ReplyDeleteMessengers 0.37
Reign 0.54
HoD0.59
The 100 0.68
Jane 0.74
TO0.81tvsetiesfinale lowest to highest
Messengers 0.23
Reign 0.39
HoD 0.41
Jane 0.47
The 100 0.52
TO0.60
So yes, it is the third lowest& barely beating Reign.J& The 100,Tzo were all doing better when they aired when HoD aired too before spring /DST hit .
It really is odd how the show's producers do not seem to be in tune with what the show's fans ( myself among them) would prefer as storylines.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand it either, and it's happened to other shows, like Sleepy Hollow.
ReplyDeleteWhat did Friday comedies do to you?
ReplyDeleteNothing.
ReplyDeleteThey are a hole on ABC schedule, they need to exist because Last Man Standing does well for fridays, but has way too low ratings to launch a second show following it.
Since LMS got a syndication deal and Beyond The Tank is compatible with Shark Tank, let it go, let it gooooo
Well a hole would be if they did terribly and LMS does not do terribly so they aren't going to let it goooo just yet... Maybe next season... They can easily make BTT a 30 min show if they don't want to move LMS or spend money on new comedy
ReplyDeleteIt got a 0.2 last week too though... I don't think there's any bouncing back, as it never had good ratings to being with.
ReplyDeleteYes HOD did better, but it also first premiered in the fall, and not on Fridays. CW promoted it too. Fans who love that show will watch it on whatever night it's moved to.
ReplyDeleteTM is on burn off the first place, the show was never in the race for a renewal since the big renewal wave we got this january.
ReplyDeleteAw... poor Messengers...
ReplyDeleteWhen SPN was moved to Friday though, it already had that built in audience. It wasn't required it build it's fanbase on Friday. It's fanbase followed it to Friday. Ditto with HoD. That's the difference.
ReplyDeleteI agree that TM should have been broadcast with a better lead in, possibly give it some room to built an audience and then have it move to Friday.
Buuuuuut, woulda, coulda, shoulda I guess....
I don't think it's as comparable to the other CW freshman shows, ALL of them are very comedic or at least have lots of more light-hearted moments like The Flash... The Messengers is very dark and serious, and nothing like the others in terms of tone, Supernatural at this point is a comedy compared to TM. That being said, I find it just as good as all the other CW shows, if not a little better in some ways. It's totally, 100% up my alley so far.
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with hoping for the best for the best show airing on Fridays. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd had a 0.246 for Episode 3.
ReplyDeleteWell, it might still possibly adjust up. Too bad there were no numbers for Cedric's.
ReplyDeleteIt premiered to a 0.28 rating. Not even possible.
ReplyDeleteIt premiered to a 0.24 rating.
ReplyDeleteMore than 2 seasons for a show that aired all of its run on Friday is really good.
ReplyDeleteAll I want is for The Messengers to do better. I love this show.
ReplyDeleteThat's true, but who knows? We're 3 episodes in. It still has a chance of building an audience somehow as long as the CW doesn't pull the plug - unless it starts hitting 0.1s (which I wish won't happen, because this is a really good series.)
ReplyDeleteI'm actually conflicted if it's a CW show or a not-so CW show in terms of mood and tone. It's dark like how the CW position their other shows to be (like The 100) but something about its writing and overall feel gives me a CBS/NBC vibe. Nevertheless it's really good, solid so far. Mewished it could've been placed after TVD on Thursday nights.
ReplyDeleteThey did pull Cult and then burnt it off during Summer. The rest of TBL never saw the light of day
ReplyDeleteRachel doesn't have any social media accounts, so it's kinda hard to gauge her thoughts about it hahaha, but I'm seeing the eagerness of the other HoD actors (Jamie, Scott) as a good indicator that Rachel might be on board, too.
ReplyDeleteTo me, the fact that it hit 0.5 twice on its Fri 8/7 time period (which was its highest since Season 2) is still something that the CW execs might look into. None of the Friday-thrown shows had any growth other than HoD, and I don't think they can fill up their schedule with only one non-dark series (which is JtV, but it even has a murder plot that's going on, which puts it at a 'darker' genre than HoD.)
ReplyDeleteI'm also not expecting a renewal but I'd not be surprised if it somehow survives. No harm in keeping our fingers crossed :)
They could also somehow make it their other procedural-like series (a la iZombie) so that it'd be easier for new audiences to follow. I didn't think it was highly serialized in the first place, but a lot was going on all throughout. I skipped half of Season 3 and went back for Season 4 though, and I didn't bother watching the skipped eps to get into it again hahaha
ReplyDeleteThe fact is it also hit an 0.3 on Fri this season and after to moving to Fri last spring,it hit 0.2-0.3 too,which isn't good.HoD hit one 0.5 in fall or winter of its third season before moving to Fri.I just don't think two 0.5s negate five or more 0.2-0.3s( since it moved to Fri.Im of the belief-as are a couple people here-that CW saw its last spring ratings and decided to end it this season since it only needed this fourth season for syndication& wrap up & talk of Rachel wanting to stay home with the baby,
ReplyDeleteTrue, but at the very least, I don't think they expected the 0.5s and 0.4s, either :)
ReplyDeleteI'd say a NBC/FOX vibe... maybe a little too ungirly for ABC's tastes (jk haha). Although, a part of me could see this as being on CBS but summer for sure. And it would have even less of a chance there.
ReplyDeleteThey just updated their Facebook page, BTW. That's rare for an already-cancelled CW series, especially now that it's May and the upfronts are near. I'm still somewhat optimistic :) But I do get all of your points.
ReplyDelete
