Sunday 4/11/21 Preliminary Primetime Ratings

Total Viewers:
CBS: 5.56 million, ABC: 5.10, NBC: 1.49, Fox: 1.00, CW: 420,000

Adults 18-49:
ABC and CBS: 0.6 rating/4 share each, NBC and Fox: 0.3/ 2 each, CW: 0.1/ 1

It was another typical depressed Sunday of split leadership between ABC and CBS. All individual program results for the Eve net are estimated because the 2021 Masters Golf Tournament bled into primetime. Only “60 Minutes” on the network was an original telecast last night.

ABC’s victory in adults 18-49 (tied with CBS) stems from “American Idol”, which scored a 0.8 rating/ 5 share in the demo (with 5.96 million viewers) from 8-10 p.m., based on the fast affiliate results. While the lead-in support was enough for lead-out ABC crime solver “The Rookie” to win the 10 p.m. hour (Viewers: 3.60 million; A18-49: 0.4/ 3), the erosion out of “Idol” was steep. As always, NBC’s competing “Good Girls” (Viewers: #3, 1.46 million; A18-49: #2t, 0.3/ 2) generated minimal interest.

Elsewhere, “Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist” on NBC (Viewers: #3, 1.61 million; A18-49: #4, 0.3/ 2 at 8 p.m.) did not live up to its title. Fox’s animated 7:30-10 p.m. combination of “Bless the Harts”, “The Simpsons”, “The Great North”, “Bob’s Burgers” and “Family Guy” simply does not generate interest via these linear fast affiliate results. See network averages above. Nor does The CW’s pairing of “Batwoman” (Viewers: 500,000; A18-49: 0.1/ 1 at 8 p.m.) and “Charmed” (Viewers: 339,000; A18-49: 0.0/ 0 at 9 p.m.).

NBC populated the Sunday 7-9 p.m. block with two repeat telecasts of “Ellen’s Game of Games.” ABC granddaddy “America’s Funniest Home Videos” was also an encore telecast.
