Fast Affiliate Ratings

Total Viewers:
CBS: 6.77 million, NBC: 5.94, ABC: 2.41, Fox: 2.28, CW: 535,000

Adults 18-49:
NBC: 0.9 rating/7 share, ABC and CBS: 0.6/ 5 each, Fox: 0.4/ 3, CW: 0.1/ 1

As always, keep in mind that the fast affiliate rating results from Nielsen are time period based and, therefore, only an approximate first look at what lies ahead. And, of course, there are other factors to consider other than these Nielsen results.

That said, CBS scored another total viewer victory care of the three “FBI” series crossover episodes, including the debut of “FBI: International” at 10 p.m. ET. But the adult 18-49 performance, as expected, was lacking for the trio. Here is how they performed by series:

CBS/Tuesday
8:00 p.m.: “FBI” (season premiere, new time)
Viewers: 6.77 million (#1), A18-49: 0.7 rating/3 share (#3)

9:00 p.m.: “FBI: Most Wanted” (season premiere, new time)
Viewers: 6.87 million (#1), A18-49: 0.6/ 4 (#3)

10:00 p.m.: “FBI: International” (series premiere)
Viewers: 6.24 million (#1), A18-49: 0.6/ 4 (#1)

NBC’s adult 18-49 win was a result of another two-hour installment of “The Voice” (featuring new judge Ariana Grande), which averaged 7.07 million viewers and a 1.0/ 8 in the demo from 8-10 p.m.. Comparably, that was first in both categories for the evening. And it led into the season premiere of medical drama “New Amsterdam”, which finished second in the Tuesday 10 p.m. ET hour in both total viewers (3.68 million) and adults 18-49 (0.5/ 4).

Also debuting last night was Fox drama “Our Kind of People”, which stumbled out of the starting gate with just 1.62 million viewers and a 0.3/ 2 in the demo — fourth in both categories — at 9 p.m. The season premiere of lead-in “The Resident” was also lacking at 2.94 million viewers and a 0.5/ 4 — also No. 4 in both — in the Tuesday 8 p.m. hour.

Elsewhere, two more hours of summer occupant “Bachelor in Paradise” on ABC (Viewers: #3, 3.04 million; A18-49: #2, 0.8/ 6 from 8-10 p.m.) led into the series finale of competition series “Ultimate Surfer” (Viewers: #3, 1.15 million; A18-49: #3, 0.3/ 2 at 10 p.m.). And The CW featured dramas “Stargirl” (Viewers: 599,000; A18-49: 0.1/ 1 at 8 p.m.) and “Supergirl” (Viewers: 472,000; A18-49: 0.1/ 1 at 9 p.m.), which were buried in last place.
