The “2017 ESPYs,” the sports award show produced by ESPN, gave ABC a rare overall Wednesday night victory. This is third year the event has aired on the broadcast network after 22 consecutive years on ESPN. Despite dropping to a three-year low since moving to ABC, it declined a mere 5 percent in total viewers (5.32 million vs. 5.6 million), two ticks in household rating (3.4 vs. 3.6) and 18 percent in adults 18-49 rating (1.4 vs. 1.7) from last year.
Prime time half-hour breakdowns for “2017 ESPYs” in household rating/share and total viewers (adults 18-34, adults 18-49 and adults 25-54 rating/share), were as follows:
8:00 3.4/7, 5.281 million (0.8/5, 1.2/6, 1.6/6)
8:30 3.4/7, 5.297 million (1.0/6, 1.4/6, 1.6/6)
9:00 3.5/7, 5.488 million (1.1/6, 1.5/6, 1.8/6)
9:30 3.5/7, 5.523 million (1.1/6, 1.5/6, 1.8/6)
10:00 3.4/7, 5.369 million (1.1/6, 1.5/6, 1.7/6)
10:30 3.2/6, 4.987 million (0.9/5, 1.3/6, 1.5/5)
The second week of oft-promoted FX drama “Snowfall” at 10 p.m. fell from its series premiere telecast of one week ago by 29 percent in live-plus-same-day viewers (0.965 million vs. 1.36 million) and by 33 percent among adults 18-49 (0.39 rating vs. 0.58 rating).
