Final Broadcast Ratings: January 21, 2018

To the surprise of no one, FOX dominated the night with the NFC Championship game. The last game before the Super Bowl drew 42.3 million viewers and a 10.9 rating in Adults 18-49. That is short from 2016's 45.7 million viewers and 15.7 demo rating, the last time FOX had the game in primetime.

FOX used the game to premiere its newest series, THE RESIDENT, and given the lead in, the show may already be on the cancellation clock. The 8.7 million viewers and 2.6 rating in Adults 18-49 is a loss a huge chunk of the lead in NFL audience. Comparably, in 2016, THE X-FILES premiere drew 16.2 million viewers and last year, on CBS, HUNTED kept 11.9 million viewers, from its 2017 AFC Championship Game Lead in.

ABC, CBS and NBC were bunched up together, grabbing about a tenth of the audience FOX drew. ABC had three hours of originals, but did little more than NBC's all-encore night.
