Thursday Final Nationals: Mixed Results for ‘The Amazing Race’ Season Premiere on CBS

CBS led Thursday night among total viewers (6.83 million) and adults 25-54 (2.0 rating/7 share). Their evening featured the 29th season premiere of “The Amazing Race” in the 10 p.m. hour. While it bested its competitors ABC and NBC within the hour in viewership and all key demos, the episode hit a series-low, to-date, among those key figures.

ABC led prime time among adults 18-34 (1.0/5) and shared leadership with CBS for adults 18-49 (1.4 rating), although ABC earned the slight edge over CBS in adults 18-49 share (6 vs. 5).
