Thursday Final Nationals: ‘Battle of the Network Stars’ on ABC Starts OK but Behind ‘Big Brother 19’ CBS Thursday Premiere

0 Comments

The Thursday night premiere of “Big Brother 19” gave CBS its second overall nightly victory. On this night, CBS led in total viewers (4.65 million), adults 18-49 (1.0 rating/5 share) and adults 25-54 (1.3/5). CBS and Fox were in a virtual tie among adults 18-34 (0.6/4).

Within the 9 p.m. hour, the series premiere of ABC’s rebooted “Battle of the Network Stars” ranked a distant runner-up to CBS’s “Big Brother 19” in all key demos; placed third in total viewers, even behind NBC game show “The Wall.”

But as a positive for ABC, “The Gong Show” at 10 p.m. — the hour’s top demo winner — fully retained its adults 18-49 delivery (0.9 rating) and slightly improved its adults 18-34 performance from its week-ago premiere.
