Ratings Breakdown:
With CBS in repeats, NBC took control of the Tuesday household overnights with an expected clean sweep by half-hour in adults 18-49. Two-hours of “The Voice” scored an ample 6.9 rating/11 share in households from 8-10 p.m. And that led into the series-premiere/preview of scripted drama “Game of Silence” at a second-place 4.5/ 7 at 10 p.m. Comparably, this was 10 percent below regularly scheduled “Chicago Fire” one week earlier (5.0/ 9 on April 6), and the overnight retention for“Game of Silence” out of the 9:30 p.m. portion of “The Voice” (6.8/11) was 66 percent.
In other words, “Game of Silence,” which debuts as the Thursday 10 p.m. occupant tomorrow, was sampled.
CBS rearranged the programming deck chairs last night, with a repeat of “NCIS: New Orleans” at 8 p.m. (#2: 5.6/ 9) into a 6.1/10 the encore of “NCIS” at 9 p.m. A second repeat airing of “NCIS: New Orleans” capped off the night with a 5.5/10 at 10 p.m.
Elsewhere, the results were slim. Repeats of ABC sitcoms “Fresh off the Boat” (#3: 2.5/ 4 at 8 p.m.) and recently introduced “The Real O’Neals” (#3: 1.9/ 3 at 8:30 p.m.) led into typically low-rated overnights for original installments of “Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD” (#3: 2.1/ 3) and “Beyond the Tank” (#3: 1.5/ 3) from 9-11 p.m. At this point, ABC should really consider ending “Beyond the Tank.”
On Fox, just renewed “New Girl,” which was a shell of what it once was, opened with a 2.1/ 3 at 8 p.m. (which was 16 percent below the aforementioned encore telecast of “Fresh off the Boat” on ABC). Next was a repeat of on-the-fence “Grandfathered” (#4: 1.2/ 2 at 8:30 p.m.) into “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” (#4: 1.5/ 2) and “The Grinder” (#4: 1.1/ 2) from 9-10 p.m., whose future is also a question mark.
The CW populated this second Tuesday in April with two episodes of “iZombie” (including the season finale), which averaged a mere 0.9/ 1 in the household overnights form 8-10 p.m.
