Tuesday Ratings: ‘FBI’ Trio Remains the Line-Up to Beat; Various Weaknesses Elsewhere

TUESDAY FAST AFFILIATE RATINGS

Tuesday, March 22, 2022
Fast Affiliate Data (time period based)

Total Viewers:
CBS: 6.47 million, NBC: 2.93, ABC: 2.36, Fox: 1.93, CW: 657,000

Adults 18-49:
CBS: 0.5 rating/5 share, NBC and Fox: 0.5/ 4 each, ABC: 0.4/ 3, CW: 0.1/ 1

CBS won this fourth Tuesday in March in total viewers with ease care of its “FBI” trio: “FBI” (Viewers: #1, for the night, 7.78 million at 8 p.m.), “FBI: International” (Viewers: #1, 6.03 million; A18-49: #2, 0.5/ 4 at 9 p.m.), and “FBI: Most Wanted” (Viewers: #1, 5.60 million; A18-49: #1, 0.5/ 5 at 10 p.m.).

On NBC, “This Is Us” topped the evening in adults 18-49, with a 0.7 rating/6 share in the demo at 9 p.m. (with 4.26 million viewers – #2). But, like basically every established network primetime series, these fast affiliate ratings for “This Is Us” pale in comparison to the not so distant past. And it led into recent limited series “The Thing About Pam” at a lackluster 2.47 million viewers (#2) and a 0.3/ 3 in the demo (#2) at 10 p.m.

Earlier in the evening on NBC were recent returning sophomore sitcoms “Young Rock” (Viewers: #3, 2.29 million; A18-49: #3t, 0.4/ 3 at 8 p.m.) and “Mr. Mayor” (Viewers: #3, 1.82 million; A18-49: #4, 0.3/ 2 at 8:30 p.m.), which no doubt cannot compete.

In the specials department was the ‘iHeart Radio Music Awards” on Fox. See network averages above.

Elsewhere, ABC scored a typical Tuesday in the fast affiliate ratings (with the weakest link game show “To Tell the Truth” at 10 p.m. Take a look:

ABC/ Tuesday
8:00 p.m. – “Judge Steve Harvey”
Viewers: 3.29 million (#2), A18-49: 0.4/ 4 (#3)

10 p.m. – “To Tell the Truth”
Viewers: 1.74 million (#3), A18-49: 0.2/ 2 (#3)

And The CW featured dramas “Superman & Lois” (Viewers: #5, 791,000; A18-49: #5, 0.1/ 1 at 8 p.m.), which was just renewed for the 2022-23 season yesterday, and “Naomi” (Viewers: #5, 524,000; A18-49: #5, 0.1/ 1 at 9 p.m.).
