These numbers are current through Tuesday, January 17.
WHAT MATTERS:
- We talked about broadcast shows getting hurt by the last-minute NFL playoff game on Sunday, but Showtime is probably hoping that applied to Homeland (0.31) as well. If not, the show was down 45% year-to-year in the same-day ratings, which is probably not what the network was looking for out of the first episode of a three-season renewal.
These numbers are current through Tuesday, January 10.
WHAT MATTERS:
- FX opened 2017 with a strong start for new drama Taboo (0.63), beating every rating that Atlanta did in this Tuesday 10:00 hour during the fall. Unless it pulls a The Bastard Executioner-esque collapse from here, it's looking good.

These numbers are current through Thursday, October 22.
WHAT MATTERS:
- There weren't a lot of big premieres this week, but several of the top shows early in their fall seasons took larger-than-usual drops. Mentioned last week that American Horror Story (1.67) had a big drop in week two, but it was about in line with what the series usually does. Going down another 28% in week three? Not so much. So after the first two points were -4% and -5% year-to-year, this one was -24%. It could be in very low-1's territory sooner rather than later.

WHAT MATTERS:
- The only real excitement on broadcast Tuesday of late was CBS' decision less than a week into the Big Brother season to revert it to the Wednesday/Thursday/Sunday scheduling that has been the norm of late. The Tuesday premiere/finale on July 2 was only a tick behind the Wednesday premiere of last summer.
