Spotted Ratings, Wednesday 5/6/20


FINALS UPDATE: Single Parents (0.6) adjusted up while Chicago PD (R) (0.5) adjusted down.

WHAT MATTERS:
  • Against two hours of Survivor (1.5/1.4), Fox's The Masked Singer (1.8) and aftershow (0.9) were both down a couple tenths from last week. But Fox remained on top in the nightly race thanks to CBS rounding out its night with the recently renewed SEAL Team (0.6) at 10/9c.
  • ABC subbed Single Parents (0.5) in at 8:30, dropping by three tenths from The Goldbergs (0.8), and was down a tenth vs. two weeks ago in the 9/8c hour with American Housewife (0.5) and another Single Parents (0.4). In its first of two straight weeks with Wednesday/Friday originals, Shark Tank (0.5) grew on its lead-in but was far lower than what it's been doing on Friday.
  • Riverdale (0.2) was even in its season finale.

Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 5/5/20


FINALS UPDATE: No adjustments.

WHAT MATTERS:
  • Finale night for ABC's comedies saw The Conners (0.9) slide below a 1 for the first time since February, and Black-ish drop to its first ever 0.4. Bless This Mess (0.6) and Mixed-ish (0.5) were even, while For Life declined to 0.4 at 10/9c.
  • The Voice (1.0) returned to Tuesdays, matching Monday's number, but was no help to Ellen's Game of Games (0.8) which was down a tenth from last week. FBI: Most Wanted (0.6) also declined as the lone CBS original, while the CW (0.4/0.2) was even.

Spotted Ratings, Monday 5/4/20


FINALS UPDATE: The Neighborhood (0.9) and 9-1-1 (1.3) adjusted up while Bull (0.6) and 9-1-1: Lone Star (R) (0.5) adjusted down.

WHAT MATTERS:
  • Like American Idol before it, The Voice (1.0) came back weaker on the other side of its clip show break, and in fact took an even bigger hit (down from 1.4 two weeks ago) than Idol. Songland stayed at the 0.6 that it posted after the clip show last week.
  • CBS used two episodes of The Neighborhood (0.9/0.8) to lead into a remotely-produced episode of All Rise (0.6), which was flat with its last original three weeks ago. Bull remained at 0.7.
  • Fox was even again with 9-1-1 (1.2), and ABC's The Baker and the Beauty persisted at 0.5, this time managing to match the second half of The Bachelor Presents: Listen to Your Heart (0.6/0.5). The CW's Roswell, New Mexico fell back to 0.1.

Spotted Ratings, Friday 5/1/20


FINALS UPDATE: No adjustments.

WHAT MATTERS:
  • On season finale night for Blue Bloods (0.7), all three CBS dramas (0.6/0.7/0.7) were down a tenth from last week. That put Shark Tank (0.8) back on top of the night, though it too was down a tenth from its last original three weeks ago.
  • NBC's The Blacklist (0.5) also dropped a tenth. The CW's Charmed (0.2) and Dynasty (0.1) matched two weeks ago.

Spotted Ratings, Thursday 4/30/20


FINALS UPDATE: No adjustments.

WHAT MATTERS:
  • NBC got strong interest in an 8/7c hour full of Parks and Recreation-themed programming, with a Paley Center salute to the series hitting a 1.0 at 8:00 and A Parks and Recreation Special growing to a whooping 1.4 at 8:30. 
    • The episode at 8:30 went way higher in Plus than anything during P&R's regular run, and even the Paley special at 8/7c was about on par with the regular run series high (which was a 126 Plus). If treated as a regular sitcom episode, it would be the third-biggest live action comedy episode of the season, behind only the Modern Family finale (1.6) and the post-Jeopardy! Modern Family in January (1.5). And its whooping 1.2 in A18-34 easily topped all live action sitcoms this season (none of which have even hit a 1.0).
  • But the P&R interest in the 8/7c hour did not translate to the first Thursday edition of new drama Council of Dads, which managed only a 0.4 for the pilot encore at 9/8c and dropped to a paltry 0.3 at 10/9c.
  • On ABC, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (0.8) got some juice from a move to an earlier hour, while Station 19 (0.9) predictably fell well behind what it had been doing alongside Grey's Anatomy. At 10/9c, How to Get Away with Murder (0.6) matched two weeks ago when S19 was three tenths bigger.
  • CBS got an uptick for the season finale of Young Sheldon (1.1), but the bigger lead-in didn't boost a double-dip of Man with a Plan (0.7/0.7), Broke (0.6) or Tommy (0.5). Fox's Last Man Standing (0.7) also concluded its season.
