Final Broadcast Ratings: April 28, 2015
THE VOICE posted its weakest night of the season, drawing under 10 million viewers and just a 2.2 rating in the A18-49 demographic. The weak lead in lead to a all around weak night for NBC. It finished third in total viewers, and barely edged ABC for second, in the A18-49 demo.
ABC had a nice bounce in the ratings, with DANCING WITH THE STARS vastly improving the ratings over last week's sitcoms. DWTS improved the 8 p.m. hour by more than140% in viewership and 35% in the A18-49 demographic. It will be interesting to see if ABC returns to a second night of DWTS, come this fall.
The CW topped FOX in the ratings, with THE FLASH demolishing HELL'S KITCHEN, head-to-head. The CW action series also out performed AGENTS OF SHIELD in the A18-49 ratings. FOX Wednesday nights need a total revamping.
