Final broadcast primetime live + same-day ratings for Thursday, March 30, 2017

The Big Bang Theory adjusted up from its initial rating Thursday, but the 0.1 uptick to a 2.6 still puts it at a series low.

Several shows adjusted down. ABCs Greys Anatomy (2.0) and Scandal (1.5) came down a tenth of a point, although both are still ahead of last week. Mom (1.2) and Powerless (0.5) also adjusted down a tenth, as did a Superstore rerun (0.6).

Upward adjustments in adults 18-49 are in blue; downward adjustments are in red.

Network averages:

Definitions: Rating: Estimated percentage of the universe of TV households (or other specified group) tuned to a program in the average minute. Ratings are expressed as a percent. Fast Affiliate Ratings: These first national ratings are available at approximately 11 a.m. ETthe day after telecast. The figures may include stations that did not air the entire network feed, as well as local news breaks or cutaways for local coverage or other programming. Fast Affiliate ratings are not as useful for live programs and are likely to differ significantly from the final results, because the data reflect normal broadcast feed patterns. Share (of Audience):The percent of households (or persons) using television who are tuned to a specific program, station or network in a specific area at a specific time. Time Shifted Viewing:Program ratings for national sources are produced in three streams of data Live, Live +Same-Day and Live +7 Day. Time-shifted figures account for incremental viewing that takes place with DVRs. Live+SD includes viewing during the same broadcast day as the original telecast, with a cut-off of 3 a.m. local time when meters transmit daily viewing to Nielsen for processing. Live +7 ratings include viewing that takes place during the 7 days following a telecast.
