Final Broadcast Ratings: August 8, 2016

The third night of the Rio Olympic games drew 28.9 million viewers and a 8.6 rating in Adults 18-49. That is down just 1.7 million viewers from the first Monday of the 2012 games, but the A18-49 demographic is off by 17%. From an NBC press release: "For the third consecutive day, NBC Olympics digital platforms had their best day ever, with 13.7 million unique users on NBCOlympics.com and the NBC Sports app on Monday (up 47% from ‘12)."

The first Monday night edition of BACHELOR IN PARADISE nearly equalled its season premiere, last Tuesday night. The summer reality series collected 4.5 million viewers and a 1.1 rating in Adults 18-34. MISTRESSES was down, drawing just 2.1 million viewers, last in the 10 PM slot. The ABC summer drama even lost to an encore of SCORPION, on CBS, in the demographic ratings.

FOX, CBS and The CW were all in encores, with the Olympics in full swing.
