Thursday 5/06/21 Preliminary Ratings

Total Viewers:
CBS: 4.20 million, ABC: 4.11, NBC: 2.65, Fox: 1.49, CW: 743,000

Adults 18-49:
ABC: 0.7 rating/5 share, CBS and NBC: 0.4/ 3 each, Fox: 0.3/ 2, CW: 0.1/ 1

Most-watched for the evening was CBS sitcom “Young Sheldon” at 6.36 million viewers (and a 0.5 rating/4 share – #2 in the time period) in the 8 p.m. half-hour. Next was “The United States of Al” (Viewers: #1, 4.60 million; A18-49: #3: 0.4/ 3 at 8:30 p.m.), followed by soon-to-conclude “Mom” (Viewers: #1. 5.15 million; A18-49: #2, 0.6/ 4 at 9 p.m.) and “B Positive” (Viewers: #2, 4.03 million; A18-49: #2, 0.5/ 3 at 9:30 p.m.).

On ABC, recent entry “Rebel” led the Thursday 10 p.m. hour with 3.24 million viewers and a 0.5/ 3 in adults 18-49 at 10 p.m. But the erosion out of lead-in “Grey’s Anatomy” (Viewers: #1, 4.80 million; A18-49: #1 for the night: 0.9/ 6 at 9 p.m.) was significant. Earlier in the evening on ABC was “Grey’s” spinoff “Station 19” at 4.28 million viewers (#2) and a dominant 0.7/ 5 in the demo at 8 p.m.

Elsewhere, NBC featured back-to-back episodes of drama “Manifest”, which averaged a modest 2.84 million viewers (#3) and a 0.5/ 4 in adults 18-49 (#2t) from 8-10 p.m. Recent Fox Thursday 9:30 p.m. entry “Lets Be Real” was a colossal failure at just 950,000 viewers (#4) and a 0.2/ 1 in adults 18-49 (#4). And The CW newbie “Walker” has cooled off, with 975,000 tuning in last night based on these fast affiliate ratings (with a 0.1/ 1 in the demo). That led into “Legacies” at 510,000 viewers (#5) and a 0.1/ 1 in the demo (#5) at 9 p.m.

Dramas “Law & Order: SVU” on NBC and “Clarice” on CBS were in repeats.
