Weekly Plus Power Rankings for Summer 2015

These are the Weekly Plus Power Rankings for 2014-15, lining up all five networks' shows based on their full season-to-date Live+SD adults 18-49 ratings averages (A18-49). These averages are also converted to A18-49+, a number that can be compared more fairly with ratings in past seasons. These will be updated every week, usually on Wednesday mornings.

Also included in these rankings are projections of what the A18-49 average (Proj Avg) and what the A18-49+ (Proj +) will be at the end of the season. How are these projections generated? See this intro. Projections in bold are for completed seasons. Projections in italics assume the most recent rating for all remaining episodes.

These rankings cover numbers through Sunday, September 6.
