Tuesday TV Ratings 3/16/21: Holmes Family Effect Bombs, This Is Us and New Amsterdam Tumble to New Lows (UPDATED)


Preliminary Analysis: Even as they enter their fourth week, it's clear that stabilization isn't in the cards for NBC's pair of new comedies. Coming off of a one-week break, 'Young Rock' (0.6) and 'Kenan' (0.4) both lost a tenth, with each sitcom hitting a fresh, new low. But those dips seemed rather mild when compared to 'This Is Us' (0.8) and 'New Amsterdam' (0.4), the two dramas fell by two-tenths. This means that every single program on the peacock network created a brand-new, series low. CBS was a lot more stable as 'NCIS' (0.8), 'FBI' (0.7), and 'FBI: Most Wanted' (0.6) clung to their week-ago numbers. On ABC, 'To Tell the Truth' (0.5) inched down as 'Soul of a Nation' (0.2) held steady. Repeats of 'Black-ish' (0.3) and 'Mixed-ish' (0.3) separated the two originals. Fox debuted reality program 'Holmes Family Effect' (0.3/0.2) and went even lower than Monday filler series 'America's Most Wanted' (0.37). 'The Flash' (0.2) and 'Superman and Lois' (0.2) had a tenth stripped away from them on the CW.

Finals Update: NCIS (+0.1), FBI (+0.1), Soul of a Nation (+0.1) and the Blackish repeat (+0.1) adjusted up.
