Final Broadcast Ratings: October 18, 2018

A low rated Thursday Night Football game topped the night in the demographic categories, but saw a drop of over two full points in the A18-49 demographic and a loss of 5.6 million viewers, from last week's final ratings.

CBS was the most watched network, attracting an average of 8.1 million viewers and topped NBC for second place in the demo ratings.

NBC topped ABC, despite being fourth place in the first two hours, but LAW & ORDER, winning the 10 PM hour, helped salvage the night and a third place showing for NBC.

ABC was hurt by preempting GREY'S ANATOMY with the annual animated Halloween specials. CHARLIE BROWN and TOY STORY barely topped the two NBC 8 PM comedies.
