Wednesday Final Nationals: Big-4 Nets Share a Piece of Prime Time Victory

Less than 1.9 million viewers separated the first (CBS, 6.89 million) and fourth place (Fox, 5 million) networks for Wednesday night leadership in average total audience. ABC earned the slight win in adults 18-49 (1.5 rating/6 share) as well as sharing the adults 25-54 lead with a rerun-filled NBC (1.9/6).

ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox each tied for the top among adults 18-34 (0.8/4).
