Preliminary Analysis: NBC cruised to Wednesday dominance with 'Chicago Med' (1.0) gaining a tenth, 'Chicago Fire' (0.9) holding steady, and 'Chicago PD' (0.8) ticking down. Despite the 'PD' slippage, all three dramas bested every program on the other networks. Over on ABC, it was another troubling evening as 'The Goldbergs' (0.5), 'The Conners' (0.5), and 'Call Your Mother' (0.3) were all a tenth below their final ratings from last week. In the midst, 'American Housewife' (0.5) got back a precious tenth while 'For Life' (0.3) clung to its week-ago rating at 10. CBS's 'Super Bowl Greatest Commercials' special (0.6) came in four-tenths behind what it garnered 12 months ago (
1.0). Anemic repeats of 'SEAL Team' (0.2) and 'SWAT' (0.2) took over from there. Fox had a particularly rough night as 'The Masked Dancer' (0.5) lost another tenth and 'Name that Tune' (0.4) took an alarming two-tenth drop after weeks of staying in the 0.6-0.7 range. The CW held even across the board with recently-renewed dramas 'Riverdale' (0.1) and 'Nancy Drew' (0.1).
Finals Update: 'The Goldbergs' (+0.1), 'The Conners' (+0.1), 'Call Your Mother' (+0.1), 'Chicago Fire' (+0.1), 'The Masked Dancer' (+0.1), and 'Name That Tune' (+0.1) adjusted up.
