FINALS UPDATE: Black-ish (0.6), Big Sky (0.7) and Young Rock (1.0) adjusted up.

WHAT MATTERS:

• NBC got a solid start from its new comedy hour of Young Rock (0.9) and Kenan (0.8), boosting This Is Us (1.1) to its highest rating in 2021, and Nurses remained at 0.3.
  

• ABC was even across the board vs. last week's finals, meaning yet another 0.6 at 10/9c from Big Sky. With CBS in repeats, Fox's The Resident inched up to 0.6 at 8/7c.
  

Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 2/9/21

FINALS UPDATE: Black-ish (0.5) adjusted up.

WHAT MATTERS:

• This Is Us (1.0) finally returned to originals and preliminarily matched its last rating from four weeks ago. It was no help to lead-in Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (0.4) and lead-out Nurses (0.3), which were both even with last week.
  

• The CBS dramas (0.9/0.8/0.6) matched their last prelims from two weeks ago, and the Fox dramas (0.5/0.4) were steady with their prelims from last week. (Most of those shows went on to adjust up in finals.) On ABC, Black-ish (0.4) dropped to join its companion Mixed-ish at 0.4, but Big Sky admirably pulled off another 0.6 at 10/9c.
  

Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 2/2/21

FINALS UPDATE: To Tell the Truth (0.6), Mixed-ish (0.5), FBI: Most Wanted (R) (0.4), The Resident (0.6) and Prodigal Son (0.5) adjusted up.

WHAT MATTERS:

• ABC's revamped Tuesday couldn't hold onto its premiere ratings in the first two hours, with To Tell the Truth (0.5), Black-ish (0.5) and especially Mixed-ish (0.4) all down from last week's prelims. But Big Sky pulled off another 0.6 at 10/9c, looking all the more promising by comparison and actually winning the night outright in prelims.
  

• Despite CBS in repeats (0.4/0.4/0.3), 8/7c dramas The Resident (0.5) and Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (0.4) were down a notch from last week. Airing after yet another This Is Us repeat (0.3), Nurses inched back up to 0.3, and Prodigal Son posted another 0.4.
  

Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 1/26/21

FINALS UPDATE: To Tell the Truth (0.7), NCIS (1.0), FBI: Most Wanted (0.7) and This Is Us (R) (0.3) adjusted up.

WHAT MATTERS:

• ABC united its Anthony Anderson-fronted shows as a winter run of To Tell the Truth (0.6) led into a Tuesday return for Black-ish (0.6) and the second season premiere of its spin-off Mixed-ish (0.6). Black-ish improved upon its late fall episodes after The Conners, and Mixed-ish also grew from when we last saw it in the spring. Big Sky (0.6) rounded out a consistent night at 10/9c, holding onto the same demo rating it was getting after The Bachelorette.
  

• Two nights after its post-AFC Championship exposure, FBI (0.8) aired its first Tuesday episode of the new year, sandwiched by NCIS (0.9) and FBI: Most Wanted (0.6).
  

• Fox's The Resident (0.6) pulled farther ahead of its lead-out Prodigal Son (0.4) in week three, while Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist inched back up to 0.5 on another repeat night for This Is Us.

• NCIS (0.8/0.7) returned to CBS with a double-episode winter premiere, with the 8/7c hour ticking up slightly from its last episode in December. FBI: Most Wanted (0.5) returned steady at 10/9c.
  

• Fox had week two of The Resident (0.5) and Prodigal Son (0.5), with the former taking a somewhat steep decline vs. last week's 0.65 premiere. With This Is Us in repeats due to COVID-related production delays, its surrounding programs Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (0.4) and Nurses (0.2) were both on the downswing.
  

Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 1/12/21

FINALS UPDATE: Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (0.5) and This Is Us (1.0) adjusted up.

WHAT MATTERS:

• Fox dramas The Resident (0.6) and Prodigal Son (0.5) returned from roughly nine-month hiatuses with Resident tying its low from last season, while Prodigal Son is eyeing a new series low (though it had much better lead-ins throughout season one).
  

• On NBC, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (0.4) and This Is Us (0.9) each dropped a tenth from their winter premieres, leaving TIU down by three tenths from what it was doing just in November and down roughly 40% from what it was doing at this time last year.
  

• And the CW, filling six more Tuesdays before it finally gets The Flash back, brought back Two Sentence Horror Stories (0.1/0.1) and premiered Canadian import Trickster (0.1).
