Fox won Wednesday night overall. “Empire” rose a bit from its series-low figures of last week (Nov. 9).
The sixth season finale of FX anthology “American Horror Story” ranked No. 1 on cable for the day among adults 18-49 (1.33 rating), adults 18-34 (1.37) and adults 25-54 (1.22). At 2.45 million live-plus-same day viewers, it represented an increase of 9 percent from the show’s fifth season finale from Jan. 13, 2016 (2.245 million) and a rise of 18 percent among adults 18-49 (1.712 million vs. 1.453 million).
However, the telecast had only outdrawn two of the prior five original season finale telecasts of the series, according to Nielsen live-plus-same day data.

Males demo holding Speechless from having near perfect retention of The Goldbergs. It still did well!
A show with 5.7 million viewers on a major network cannot be said to be doing well…
Thank you for the sub-demo breakdowns. Awesome stuff!
Interesting how Arrow skews much older but not that great a difference for Frequency. Of course Arrow would skew more male, but again Frequency has almost equal male to female.
The end result being another pair of CW flops it must be pointed out…
You’re point being?
Analyzing minute details of the ratings of failed shows should not obscure the important point: those shows have failed.
I understand you don’t like to hear it, but it happens to be true.
If possible, half-hour breakdown for NBC’s ”Chicago PD,” please.
Thanks in advance!
Chicago PD (NBC, 11/16) in total viewers (adults 18-49 rating/share)
9:00 5.758M (1.1/4)
9:30 5.967M (1.1/4)
10:00 6.296M (1.3/5)
10:30 6.430M (1.3/5)
About American Horror Story, it should be pointed out that 2.5 million viewers doesn’t even get it above an O’Reilly telecast, which I’m not saying to hype O’Reilly…
