“The Bachelor” climbed to a season high in the Monday primetime ratings, and tied for the night’s no. 1 spot in the adults 18-49 demo.
The ABC reality series posted a season high 2.0 rating, up two-tenths from its 1.8 a week ago, and rose to a season high in total viewers as well, with 7.23 million. “The Bachelor” tied with “The Voice” for the 18-49 win, as the NBC singing competition series scored a 2.0 as well, down just a tenth from its season premiere last Monday. “The Voice” did, however, tick up in viewers from 10.77 to 10.88 million this week.
“The Good Doctor” rounded out the night for ABC, and held steady week-to-week with a 1.1. The same could not be said for NBC’s “The Enemy Within,” which fell three-tenths in its second week to a 0.9.
Elsewhere, CBS’ “Man with a Plan” dropped from a 1.0 to a 0.7 without a new episode of “The Neighborhood” as its lead-in. “Magnum P.I.” (0.6) similarly fell three-tenths.
On FOX, “The Resident” returned up from its previous episode’s 0.9 to a 1.0, and “The Passage” stayed even with another 0.8. Meanwhile, the CW’s “Arrow” returned from a break to a series low 0.2, as did “Black Lightning” (0.2).

Definitions:
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.
Fast Affiliate Ratings: These first national ratings are available at approximately 11 a.m. ET the day after telecast. 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.
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.
Time Shifted Viewing: Program ratings for national sources are produced in three streams of data – Live, Live +Same-Day and Live +7 Day. Time-shifted figures account for incremental viewing that takes place with DVRs. Live+SD includes viewing during the same broadcast day as the original telecast, with a cut-off of 3 a.m. local time when meters transmit daily viewing to Nielsen for processing. Live +7 ratings include viewing that takes place during the 7 days following a telecast.
