Ratings: St. Denis Medical Has Very Healthy Debut for NBC
In the latest TV show ratings, CBS’ FBI was Tuesday’s most-watched program, while ABC’s Dancing With the Stars dominated in the demo.
NBC | St. Denis Medical debuted to 3.8 million total viewers and a 0.5 demo rating, and a second episode retained 3.1 mil and a 0.5 — ranking No. 2 in the demo for the night, and up versus the averages for both Night Court Season 2 (3 mil/0.3) and Extended Family Season Only (2.6 mil/0.3). TVLine readers gave the premiere an average grade of “B,” with 84% planning to stay tuned. Leading out of that, The Voice (4 mil/0.4) was up in the demo from its last Tuesday outing, while The Irrational (2.2 mil/0.2) was steady.
