Ratings Breakdown:
The 2018 Winter Olympics on NBC concluded with an estimated 9.1 rating/15 share in the household overnights from 8-10:30 p.m. ET. That led into episode two of new sitcom “A.P. Bio” at a dominant 4.6/ 7 in the 10:30 p.m. half-hour. A.P. Bio” debuts in its regularly scheduled Thursday 8:30 p.m. time period (out of “Superstore”) this week. An additional episode will air at 9:30 p.m. that evening.

Earlier in the evening on NBC was Olympic Gold at a second-place 5.0/ 9 in households from 7-8 p.m., which trailed competing “60 Minutes” on CBS (#1: 6.4/11 at 7 p.m.) by 22 percent.

In season finale news on CBS was “Big Brother – Celebrity Edition” at a second-place 3.6/ 6 from 8-10 p.m., which bested competing “The Women Tell All Edition” of ABC’s “The Bachelor” (#3: 3.1/ 5) by 16 percent. While nothing is officially confirmed, chances of a new celebrity edition of “Big Brother” next season is likely given its competitive performance opposite The Winter Olympics.

Leading out of “The Bachelor” special was the season finale of “Shark Tank,” which ABC completely wasted this season, at a modest 2.3/ 4 at 10 p.m. (#2). “Shark Tank” needs to move back to where it belongs, on Friday, next season.
