I wonder why it slipped. I am sure it would have slipped more if up against Elton John .
The Voice may still be a competitor. NCIS was a rerun .
Roseanne' Slips Some More, Still Dominant In Ratings; 'New Girl' Starts Final Season On Low Note
April 11, 2018 9:32am
ABC's
Roseanne revival shed a few more tenths of a rating point in its third week, logging a 3.4 adults 18-49 rating in Live+Same Day and 13.5 million total viewers Tuesday night. That was down a modest 13% in 18-49 from last week and 12% in viewers.
Still, Roseanne 's 3.4 rating topped any regularly scheduled non-premiere telecast of a scripted broadcast series this season. It was once again the top program on Tuesday in 18-49 and total viewers and helped ABC win the night in the demo for a third straight week. Airing at 8 PM, Roseanne also continued to provide a strong lead-in for comedies The Middle (1.9, -13% from last week's season high, 7.5 million) and Black-ish (1.4, -0.1, 5.1 million), which ranked as No. 2 and No. 3 for the night in the demo, respectively. New midseason series Splitting Up Together (1.2, 4.2 million) and For the People (0.6, 2.7 million) both shed two more tenths as their ratings have yet to settle.
Roseanne faced atypical competition, with no original NCIS on CBS or The Voice or
NBC. Following a Voice clip show, new NBC drama Rise (0.8, 4.5 million) and Chicago Med (1.1, 6.4 million) both held steady. Leading out of an NCIS rerun, CBS aired Elton John: I'm Still Standing – A Grammy Salute which managed a 1.0 and 7.1 million. CBS topped the night in total viewers.
Three series returned from lengthy hiatuses to series lows, led by Fox comedy series
New Girl (0.7, 4 million), which opened its final seventh season down 42% from its Season 6 premiere and 0.1 below its previous series low.
New Girl was in line with the deliveries of
The Mick, which aired in the Tuesday 9:30 PM time slot earlier this season. Fox's
Lethal Weapon returned from a lengthy break to a 0.8 demo rating, also a series low, and 4.1 million viewers.
LA to Vegas (0.7, 2.3 million) was steady.
The CW's
The Flash (0.6, 1.8 million) also came back from hiatus to a new series low, while
Black Lightning (0.5, 1.6 million) was steady.
