Saturday TV Ratings 6/24/23: American Born Chinese Preview Weak, MLB Leads but Remains Below-Average, USFL Continues to Struggle (UPDATED)


Ratings Analysis: With the 'U.S. Open' now out of the picture, Fox's broadcast of 'MLB: Regional Coverage' (0.33, +0.14) enjoyed a healthy rebound and returned to the top of the Saturday night leaderboard. NBC tried to compete with their 'MI v. Pittsburgh' USFL game (0.14) but failed miserably. On ABC, a preview of Disney+ series 'American Born Chinese' (0.12) bombed hard and was outshined by reruns of 'America's Funniest Home Videos' (0.17/0.19). CBS had meager repeats of 'NCIS: Hawai'i' (0.09) and 'Blue Bloods' (0.09). The 10 p.m. '48 Hours' encore (0.15) improved from there. On the CW, 'Totally Weird and Funny' (0.03, +0.01 | 0.02, 0.00) was close to even on finale night, with a minor uptick at 9 but no change at 9:30. Reruns of 'Masters of Illusion' (0.04/0.04) performed a bit better in the 8 p.m. hour.

Finals Update: 'MLB' (+0.1) and the 9 PM repeat of 'America's Funniest Home Videos' (+0.1) adjusted up.
