Preliminary Ratings: Wednesday 04/19/2017

Wednesday was heavy with encores, as nine of the 13 hours from the broadcast networks, were repeat programming. The only network not airing repeats was CBS and they had an easy time sweeping the night. Two hours of SURVIVOR drew a 1.7 rating in Adults 18-49 and collected a total of 7.9 million viewers, most of any show of the night. The CRIMINAL MINDS: BEYON BORDERS episode didn't do much better than the encores airing on FOX, ABC and NBC and was even with the CHICAGO PD rerun, in the 10 PM hour.

FOX, NBC and ABC were clumped together ad they aired mostly repeats. SHOTS FIRED, on FOX, fourth in its 8 PM time slot, doing no better than the LAW & ORDER: SVU encore. At 10 PM, DESIGNATED SURVIVOR did win the hour, but not by much, against weak competition.
