Monday 4/12/21 Preliminary Primetime Ratings 

Total Viewers:
NBC: 4.65 million, CBS: 4.48, ABC: 2.24, Fox: 1.75, CW; 551,000

Adults 18-49:
ABC and CBS: 0.6 rating/4 share, CBS: 0.4/ 3, Fox: 0.3/ 2, CW; 0.1/ 1

In the battle of the singing competitions, NBC’s “The Voice” had the advantage over ABC’s “American Idol” (5.64 million vs. 5.24 million), with each at a 0.7 rating/5 share in adults from 8-10 p.m. ET in the fast affiliate ratings. In other words, both mirror the ongoing traditional broadcast network linear ratings erosion.

At 10 p.m., recently introduced NBC drama “Debris” continued to drop the ratings ball, at 2.69 million viewers (#2) and a 0.4/ 3 in adults 18-49 (#1). And it faced a repeat of ABC’s “Rebel.” On CBS, tired “Bull” won the hour with 5.04 million viewers (and a 0.4/ 3 in the demo). But, at this point, it is time for “Bull” to conclude.

In season (or series) finale news was Fox’s reboot of “America’s Most Wanted”, hosted by Elizabeth Vargas, at an uneventful (and fourth place) 1.53 million viewers and a 0.3/ 2 in adults 18-49 at 9 p.m. It aired out of an encore telecast of “9-1-1.”

Elsewhere, drama “All American” returned on The CW with a modest 706,000 viewers and a 0.2/ 1 in adults 18-49. Considerably worse was lead-in “Black Lightning” at just 396,000 viewers and a 0.1/ 1 in the demo at 9 p.m. Naturally, both finished a distant fifth in their time periods.

CBS, meanwhile, had typical results cared of its 8-10 p.m. rotation of comedies “The Neighborhood” (Viewers: #2, 4.88 million; A18-49: #3, 0.6/ 4) and “Bob Hearts Abishola” (Viewers: #3, 4.54 million; A18-49: #3, 0.5/ 3), and sophomore legal drama “All Rise” (Viewers: #3, 3.72 million; A18-49: #3, 0.4/ 2). In today’s depressed environment, “All Rise” could still be renewed despite these anemic linear results.
