Thursday September 27, 2018 Nielsen Finals

FOX's coverage of 'Thursday Night Football' (4.8/21, 14.4 million) led the way for an easy victory in both the demo (4.8/22) and total viewers (14.45 million) on primetime Thursday. CBS (1.4/6, 8.48 million) ranked second, led by 'The Big Bang Theory' (2.2/10, 12 million) and 'Young Sheldon' (1.6/7, 10.2 million), both of which aired their second episodes of the season. The season premiere of 'Mom' (1.3/5, 7.9 million) led into the premiere of reboot 'Murphy Brown' (1.1/4, 7.5 million) which brought in decent numbers; however, the new season premiere of 'S.W.A.T.' (0.7/3, 4.7 million) leaves little room for optimism. Over on ABC (1.4/6, 4.56 million), 'Grey's Anatomy' (1.9/8, 6.8 million) began with its lowest-rated and lowest-viewed season premiere ever (down from last year's premiere: 2.3, 8.07 million), but was in par with its Spring 2018 numbers. 'How to Get Away with Murder' (0.8/3, 2.9 million) was also on par with its Spring numbers. Finally, over at NBC (1.1/4, 4.11 million), the hour-long season premiere of 'The Good Place' (1.0/4, 3.1 million) led into the two-hour season premiere of 'Law & Order: SVU' (1.1/5, 5.1 million), both of which started low. 

On the cable side, NFL Network's simulcast of 'Thursday Night Football' led the day with a 1.11 A18-49 rating and 3.17 million viewers. The game brought in cable's best numbers in men 18-49 (1.65 rating), males 12-34 (0.93), and adults 25-54 (1.38). Coverage of the Senate Kavanaugh/Ford hearings also brought in big numbers on cable, with the 6pm hour on FOX News bringing in the highest cable numbers in people over 50 (5.58 rating) and total viewers (7.55 million). A full table of ratings from the hearing is below the cable finals. On MTV, 'Jersey Shore: Family Vacation' had the top ratings in both women 18-49 (0.96) and females 12-34 (0.88), and averaged 1.22 million total viewers. Nickelodeon's 'Spongebob' had the second-highest females 12-34 rating on cable (0.51), in addition to a 0.31 in M12-34 and 1.19 million viewers. Over on TruTV, 'Impractical Jokers' was at 0.33/0.29 in M18-49/M12-34, with 535,000 viewers, and on Bravo, 'Shah's of Sunset' was at 0.37/0.21 in the female equivalents of those demos, with 798,000 viewers. Other shows of note include: WEtv's 'Braxton Family Values' (706,000) & 'Bossip' (440,000), CMT's 'Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders' (251,000), and UP's 'Bringing Up Bates' (248,000).
