Preliminary Ratings: Tuesday 12/05/2017

NBC dominates the Tuesday ratings, with solid numbers from 8 to 11 PM. THE VOICE wins the 8 PM hour, drawing 9.9 million viewers and a 1.8 rating in Adults 18-49. A special WILL & GRACE holds the A18-49 demographic audience, but losses 2.8 million viewers, from THE VOICE. There was also a special SUPERSTORE episode and it drops near 40% in the demo and 2.7 million viewers, from its lead in. Closing out the night, CHICAGO MED grows 2.2 million viewers and maintains its lead in 1.1 demo rating.

FOX edges ABC for second place as its three series hold their numbers from the previous week. ABC was down, slightly, from its last airing of all five shows, back on November 14.

CBS was all-encore on the night, but ranks last in the A18-34 demo, as The CW ties for second place in the category. The CW also ties CBS in the A18-49 demo and just a tenth of a point behind ABC.
