Preliminary Ratings: Monday 01/09/2017

ABC and CBS split the Monday night leadership, with an all new ABC taking the three demographic categories and a mostly encored CBS grabbing the most viewers. NBC edges out FOX for the #3 spot and The CW ends in 5th place.

THE BACHELOR was the #1 show of the evening, in the younger demographics, posing low 2.0 ratings in all three categories. The reality program was also #2 overall in total viewers, behind an encore of THE BIG BANG THEORY.

Following THE BACHELOR was the premiere of the new game show, BIG FAN. The firs episode lost nearly half of the total viewers and more than half of the demographic ratings, from its lead in. And, it lost to an encore of NBC's game show, THE WALL, which had a lesser lead in. Don't expect BIG FAN to hang around long.

Week two of THE CELEBRITY APPRENTICE dropped about a million viewers and lost 23% in the A18-49 demographic, from last week's premiere. It is looking like THE NEW CELEBRITY APPRENTICE may get Terminated, itself.
