CBS is poised for a record 17th straight season as the most-watched broadcast network, marking the longest streak since its own 1955-1970 run. Excluding sports, Nielsen data shows CBS averaging 4.99 million primetime viewers, a 14% increase from last year.
According to The Wrap, CBS dominates with the top seven broadcast shows: “Tracker” (10.84M viewers), “Matlock” (9.53M), “60 Minutes” (8.45M), “FBI” (8.11M), “Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage” (7.98M), “Blue Bloods” (7.9M), and “NCIS” (7.86M). It also claims eight of the top 10 shows (including “Elsbeth”), four of the top five new shows (“Matlock,” “Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage,” “Watson,” “NCIS: Origins”), and the top two comedies (“Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage,” “Ghosts”). Of the top 20 shows, CBS holds 13 spots.
NBC secured four top-20 spots with “Chicago Fire” (8th), “Chicago Med” (10th), “Chicago P.D.” (13th), and “The Voice” (18th). ABC took three with “High Potential” (12th), “Will Trent” (14th), and “9-1-1” (19th).
Beyond primetime, CBS’s “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” leads late night for a ninth straight season, and the network remains No. 1 in daytime for a 39th consecutive season.
