Thursday Ratings: Quiet Start for CBS Sitcom ‘How We Roll’; ABC and the Eye Net Share Dominance

THURSDAY FAST AFFILIATE RATINGS

© by CBS

Thursday, March 31, 2022

Total Viewers:
CBS: 4.93 million, ABC: 3.55, NBC: 2.36, Fox: 1.51, CW: 700,000

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

In series-premiere news, CBS is reporting a time period winning 4.10 million viewers for the launch of sitcom “How We Roll” at 9:30 p.m. ET. But that was 1.93 million viewers (or 32 percent) below lead-in “Ghosts” (#1: 6.03 million at 9 p.m.). And it dropped by a hefty 40 percent in adults 18-49 out of “Ghosts” (0.5 rating/4 share to 0.3/ 3). Since most new series drop 10 to 20 percent in week two, the chances of renewal for former time period occupant “B Positive” have improved.

Earlier in the evening, the 100th episode of CBS’ “Young Sheldon” topped the night, with 6.59 million viewers and a 0.5/ 5 in adults 18-49 in the Thursday 8 p.m. half-hour. And that led into sophomore “United States of Al” at 4.82 million viewers (#1) and a 0.4/ 3 in the demo (#2t) at 8:30 p.m.

Soon-to-conclude “Bull” closed the night for the Eye net with 4.02 million viewers (#1) and a 0.3/ 3 in adults 18-49 (#1t), which is nothing to boast about given it faced an encore telecast of “Law & Order: Organized Crime” on NBC. “Bull” did, however, beat ABC’s competing “Big Sky” (Viewers: #2, 2.46 million; A18-49: #1t, 0.3/ 2) in total viewers.

Also on ABC were dramas “Station 19” (Viewers: #2, 4.33 million; A18-49: #1, 0.5/ 5 at 8 p.m.) and “Grey’s Anatomy” (Viewers: #2, 3.86 million; A18-49: #1, 0.5/ 4 at 9 p.m.).

Elsewhere, week three of sitcom “Welcome To Flatch” remained off the fast affiliate charts with 830,000 viewers (#4) and a 0.2/ 1 at 9:30 p.m. (#4) at 9:30 p.m. That led out of “Call Me Kat” at 9 p.m. (Viewers: #4, 1.45 million; A18-49: #3t, 0.3/ 2 at 9 p.m.).

Earlier in the evening on Fox was cooking competition “MasterChef Junior” at 1.88 million viewers (#4) and a 0.4/ 3 in adults 18-49 (#2t) at 8 p.m.

The CW featured “Walker” (Viewers: 979,000; A18-49: 0.1/ 1 at 8 p.m.) and perennially sluggish “Legacies” (Viewers: 421,000; A18-49: 0.1/ 0 at 9 p.m.). Both finished last in their time periods. And NBC was in all repeats.
