You can see TV ratings from other recent Overnight ratings reports here.
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.

@Clark,
I’m the opposite. On Tues. I watch NCIS and PH while DVRing PP. I also had to DVR Covert Affairs early this morning and in the Winter will be DVRing White Collar. Oh, yeah. Leverage & Rizolli & Isles are coming up soon.
As for Wednesday, all I have is Criminal Minds & American Horror Story.
The new normal is very awesome.i love it!!!!!!
Fox’s Tuesday line up reminds me so much of NBC’s Thursday lineup. It’s not quite as bad, but still not great.
Then again, what would Go On and TNN’s ratings be like if Whitney and Guys with Kids aired before it instead of The Voice? At least Fox can say their comedies are holding themselves up.
The Office looks like it is NBC’s only comedy this season that can hit above a 2.0 without The Voice’s help. Even TNN can’t seem to hit a 2.0 on a night The Voice has a 3.8. That’s two full rating points within an hour.
i hate the mindy project i want it to fail but kinda happy for the fan because the fans make the show and although i hate it there are many who dont.
lol at everyone so excitied about heart. Dont get used to it it wont happen to often. It that a record high for the show?? It must be if everyones so happy.. pathetic lol. On a side note good for Parenthood even though it went down since the last episode. That goes to show you what happenes when you give long breaks to a show the ratings dip. A 3 week break brought down Parenthood.. stop that NBC before you kill a great show. Dont act like the CW now, look how that works for them.
Good 0,7 of HOD?how do you keep a show seen by a few viewers with a rating so low! delete all the shows that go under 1,0……
@Dave
Thank you! I hope HoD won’t be adjusted down.
Interesting article on Variety:
http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118062141
What stood out on the article is this little tidbit:
Just think about that… DVR penetration went up by 4% points overall, and more than half the people in the all important demo are now using DVR to watch television. Half.
Parenthood has been smashing the demo at it’s time slot. Honestly, how stupid was NBC not to give it the full 22? It deserves a 24 episode pick-up in my opinion, but alas, they’ll put stupid Smash in it’s timeslot come Spring.
Happy to see Hart of Dixie up this week. Great episode..as usual.
Great for Emily Owens, hope it gets adjusted up.
It would be nice to see Go On adjusted up. I think the show is great. It is becoming one of the best comedies on TV.
Fox’s Tuesday night comedy block is a mess. I have trouble believing that they will be going with this same line up for the rest of the season. They really should move Glee back to Tuesdays at 8.
Finally, too bad about Happy Endings and Don’t Trust the B- in Apt 23. They are also both good comedies that deserve higher ratings.
New Girl has stopped being about Zooey, Schmidt is the star now. This change holds consequences for the ratings.
yay, let all these rom coms kill each other off so we can get some variety back on our tv sets….like maybe some good drama shows.
The ratings for Private Practice are pathetic. What happened to Tuesdays on ABC???
@TVDude – You consider a 1.6 from Raising Hope and a 1.1 from Ben & Kate “holding themselves up?”
The CW will renew:
-90210.
-Arrow.
-Beauty and the Beast.
-Hart of Dixie.
-Nikita.
-Supernatural.
-The Vampire Diaries.
The CW will cancel:
-Cult.
-Emily Owen, M.D.
-Gossip Girl (final season as it is).
-The Carrie Diaries.
Next season Tuesday will be NCIS night. Three of them LOL
for ABC i’d do this:
Tuesday:
8pm Shark Tank
9pm Nashville
10pm PP
Wednesday
10pm Happy Endings / Apartment 23
Fridays
8pm LMS / Malibu
9pm DWTS
@Jarrod,
As much as I like Parenthood, I wouldn’t exactly call a 1.8 to a 1.6 “smashing the demo”
