Adults 18-49:
Fox: 0.5 rating/4 share, ABC and NBC: 0.3/ 3 each, CBS: 0.3/ 2, CW: 0.1/ 1

In series-premiere news, home makeover renovation series “Secret Celebrity Makeover” topped the night in total viewers, with 2.84 million (and a 0.3/ 3 in adults 18-49, which finished in a tie for second in the time period behind “WWE Smackdown” on Fox). Needless to say, this is nothing to boast about.

“Secret Celebrity Renovation” led into the time period premiere of dating competition series “Love Island”, which dipped to 1.45 million viewers (#4) and a 0.3/ 2 in the demo (#2t) at 9 p.m.

Also premiere on broadcast (after its debut on streamer HBO Max) was the reboot of “Gossip Girl”, which was left at the starting gate with 287,000 viewers and a 0.1/ 0 in adults 18-49 from 8-9:30 p.m.

Elsewhere, aforementioned “WWE Friday Night Smackdown” was at typical Friday fast affiliate levels. See the network averages above. Both “20/20” on ABC (Viewers: #1, 2.63 million; A18-49: #3, 0.3/ 3 from 9-11 p.m.) and NBC’s “Dateline” (Viewers: #2, 2.33 million; A18-49: #1, 0.4/ 3 at 10 p.m.) remain shells of their former selves. And the remainder of the evening were repeats.
