Definitions:
Fast Affiliate Ratings: These first national ratings, including demographics, are available at approximately 11 AM (ET) the day after telecast, and are released to subscribing customers daily. These data, from the National People Meter sample, are strictly time-period information, based on the normal broadcast network feed, and include all programming on the affiliated stations, sometimes including network programming, sometimes not. The figures may include stations that did not air the entire network feed, as well as local news breaks or cutaways for local coverage or other programming. Fast Affiliate ratings are not as useful for live programs and are likely to differ significantly from the final results, because the data reflect normal broadcast feed patterns. For example, with a World Series game, Fast Affiliate Ratings would include whatever aired from 8-11PM on affiliates in the Pacific Time Zone, following the live football game, but not game coverage that begins at 5PM PT. The same would be true of Presidential debates as well as live award shows and breaking news reports.
Rating: Estimated percentage of the universe of TV households (or other specified group) tuned to a program in the average minute. Ratings are expressed as a percent.
Share (of Audience): The percent of households (or persons) using television who are tuned to a specific program, station or network in a specific area at a specific time. (See also, Rating, which represents tuning or viewing as a percent of the entire population being measured.)
Time Shifted Viewing – Program ratings for national sources are produced in three streams of data – Live, Live+Same Day (Live+SD) and Live+7 Day. Time shifted figures account for incremental viewing that takes place with DVRs. Live+Same Day (Live+SD) include viewing during the same broadcast day as the original telecast, with a cut-off of 3:00AM local time when meters transmit daily viewing to Nielsen for processing. Live+7 Day ratings include incremental viewing that takes place during the 7 days following a telecast.

Catalina may adjust down but I have a feeling it will barely hold a .3.
Good for NBC.. It looks like its between FOX and NBC for best summer ratings
People are fleeing network tv due to the overload of junk reality/competition shows.
What irks me the most about The CW, is that they don’t PROMOTE their shows enough! To me, The CW’s promotions are dull! I really don’t know! There are many people who don’t know this network EXIST and some people don’t even have this network on their channel lineup! LIKE ME! (unfortunately)
@lane, it’ll certainly be NBC; they have olympics and AGT does better than their Gordon Ramsay cooking shows. No competition between NBC and Fox.
So, I actually gave Love in the Wild a chance last night. And it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be – I actually prefer it to The Bachelor/Bachelorette. It’s mindless dumb reality fun. A 1.6 is pretty bad for a premiere though….
NCIS: LA better than NCIS!
And if Networks aired scripted shows in summer ratings would be just as awful.
Im glad CBS arent doing well in repeats. They dont even try to air programing in summer.
NBC now are definitely #3 network. Good job for their new CEO/boss. For 1 full year he turn things around. Great rebuild. Still long way to go before to be #1 network again.
It makes sense now. FOX and NBC’s unscripted in the summer does better than their scripted in the fall and spring. And people wonder why scripted tv is dead.
@John A
Dogs in the city…..wich i expect to be cancel tomorrow. So their summer reality are worse than repeats for free. But they still have BB wich is best summer reality.
@OMG
With no competition from CBS wich is #1 network. And litle from ABC.
The Catalina is not a bad show. The Morgan girl on it is hilarious. Glad it stayed steady.
Love in the wild was not on in CA because of the election coverage.
NCIS repeat last night “Need to Know” – That was an awful episode, especially that DiNozzo guy.
Not Bad for “Love In The Wild”, however Saving hope is going to crash
NBC is doing things right, but it takes a while to turn a network around. But they already got the biggest hit in 2 seasons with The Voice. Grimm is a good performer for Fridays, and with Smash they are reaching upscale viewers.
Next season NBC will win Mondays with The Voice and Revolution. Smash is a good show, but never a show for network viewers, but Revolution is. Over 7 million hits on YouTube.
I hope NBC gets more hits than Revolution, a sitcom would be nice ,but they r moving in the right direction.
@disneyrocks
But take into consideration that Fox only have 2 hours a day and SYTYCD is on for 2 hours where NBC puts Grimm repeats in at the 10:00 hour.
CBS should at least try airing summer shows. DITHC at least didn’t crash.
