Ratings: ‘This Is Us’ Breaks Own Viewer Record vs ‘NCIS’ Rerun
NBC is thankful this week for an “NCIS” rerun and no “Dancing With the Stars” season finale. The No. 1 network’s “This Is Us” broke its own viewership record last night at 9 p.m., landing 10.6 million overall audience members.
At 8, CW’s “The Flash” scored its most eyeballs (4.1 million) in two years, thanks to its Tuesday turn as part of this week’s DC Comics mega-crossover. That same hour, CBS aired “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,” which actually beat “The Voice” in the key 18-49 demographic.
The CW finished fourth on the evening, topping Fox and the Spanish-language nets. It was a forgettable night for Fox, which tied for last place in the main demo and sat there on its own among total viewers.
