Some notes about these charts:
These figures are up to date robotically as new rankings are launched. The averages are primarily based on the ultimate nationwide numbers (stay plus same-day viewing), except marked with an asterisk (*). For technical causes, I’ve to resort them manually. While these numbers don’t embody additional delayed or streaming viewing, they’re an excellent indicator of how a present is performing, particularly when in comparison with others on the identical channel. There will be different financial elements concerned in a present’s destiny, however sometimes the higher-rated sequence are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
Keep in thoughts that the demo numbers are sometimes what’s most essential to advertisers. Therefore, that’s how the networks measure success. Advertisers pay extra for advert time on a present that has the next demo ranking. Older viewers additionally matter however youthful viewers watch much less conventional TV and are due to this fact tougher to succeed in. Delayed viewing issues increasingly more nowadays (if commercials are watched) however stay viewing continues to be advertisers’ perfect.
Demo numbers are sometimes reported utilizing the 10ths decimal place (2.4, for instance). In the averages, I’m utilizing an additional decimal for simpler rating. The networks take note of when exhibits air on Fridays and Saturdays, nights when TV viewership is decrease.
