    Ratings Breakdown:
    It was an atypical fall Thursday minus football on CBS, which was replaced last night by encore telecasts of “The Big Bang Theory” (8 p.m.: #2: 4.6 rating/8 share; 9 p.m.: #2: 3.7/ 6), “Kevin Can Wait” (8:30 p.m.: #2, 3.4/ 6; 9:30 p.m.: #3, 2.9/ 5) and a 10 p.m. installment of freshman drama “Bull” (#3: 2.7/ 5). Despite being a repeat, “The Big Bang Theory” at 8 p.m. still managed to beat NBC’s competing “Superstore” (#3: 2.9/ 5) by 59 percent in the household overnight.

    Combined with freshman sitcom lead-out “The Good Place” (#3: 3.1/ 5 at 8:30 p.m.) and the combination of NBC’s “Superstore” and “The Good Place” trailed year-ago time period occupant “Heroes Reborn” (3.6/ 6 on 10/01/15) by 17 percent. Additionally, “The Good Place” dipped by 11 percent from its week-ago time period debut (3.5/ 6 on Sept. 22).

    Continuing with NBC, relocated “Chicago Med” perked up to a dominant 4.4/ 7 in the 9 p.m. hour, which increased from “The Good Place” in the household overnights by a hefty 42 percent. “The Blacklist,” also relocated, finished first in the 10 p.m. hour with a similar 4.1/ 7. But, comparably, this was 23 percent below the 5.3/ 8 for the year-ago season premiere at 9 p.m.

    On ABC, veteran “Grey’s Anatomy” topped the 8 p.m. hour, with a 6.0/10. But the alphabet net has sprung a Thursday leak as a result of new drama “Notorious,” which slipped to a 3.4/ 5 (#2) in the 9 p.m. hour. Comparably, this was 17 percent below the already disappointing week-ago opener (4.1/ 6 on Sept. 22), which translated into just 5.39 million viewers and a 1.1 rating/4 share in adults 18-49, based on the Live + Same Day data. And “Notorious” was 49 percent below year-ago time period occupant “Scandal” in the overnights.

    With diluted lead-in support, season three of “How to Get Away With Murder” at 10 p.m. dipped by 39 percent in the household overnights from the year-ago week, with a 3.4/ 6 (#2).

    Fox, meanwhile, had nothing positive to report with its combination of sophomore “Rosewood” (#4: 2.6/ 4) and week two of drama “Pitch” (#4: 2.6/ 4), which decreased by 19 percent in the household overnights from its already depressed series-opener (3.2/ 5 on Sept. 22). That 3.2 overnight rating translated into just 4.23 million viewers and a 1.1/ 4 in adults 18-49, based on the Live + Same Day data.

    Capping off the night were encore telecasts of “The Flash” (#5: 0.7/ 1) and “Supernatural” (#5: 0.6/ 1) on The CW.

    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.
