Premiere Tuesday TV Ratings 9/20/22: FBI Shows Return Up from Finales, Monarch Abysmal, The Bachelorette Rises for Finale, The Resident Returns Steady (UPDATED)

Ratings Analysis: Premiere night continued on as CBS rolled out the red carpet for the returns of 'FBI' (0.64), 'FBI: International' (0.50), and 'FBI: Most Wanted' (0.51). All three dramas improved from their season finales that aired in spring 2022 (0.56/0.44/0.41), but the lineup noticeably trailed its Fall 2021 launch (0.72/0.59/0.66). On NBC, the Tuesday edition of 'The Voice' (0.73) and drama 'New Amsterdam' (0.39) both shed about 30% from their year-ago starts (1.09/0.54). After mustering up a football-boosted 0.91 for its series premiere, Fox drama 'Monarch' (0.21, -0.70) completely collapsed for its timeslot debut. In the 8PM slot, 'The Resident' (0.35) tied its May '22 finale but was 30% lower than its 2021 return (0.50). ABC staple 'The Bachelorette' (0.90, +0.01) picked up a hundredth for its season finale and topped the night effortlessly. 'Leonardo' (0.05, 0.00) and 'Devils' (0.04, 0.00) were both stable on the CW.

Finals Update: 'The Bachelorette' (+0.1) and 'The Resident' (+0.1) adjusted up.

Tuesday TV Ratings 9/13/22: Academy of Country Music Honors Extremely Low, The Bachelorette Tops America’s Got Talent as Both Hit Season Highs (UPDATED)

Ratings Analysis: It was a rare Summer Tuesday night in which America's Got Talent (0.79, +0.06 did not lead the way, with the first half of the summer juggernaut's season finale taking second overall for the night despite hitting a new season high, leading into a new Password (0.47, -0.03), which slipped a minor amount after a week off. The Bachelorette (+0.89), was the night's leader, in its second of three Tuesday night airings this season. The dating reality staple rose an extremely-impressive two tenths and hit what is easily a new season high, notching its smallest year-to-year decline of the season. Bachelorette led into a weak repeat of Celebrity Family Feud (0.24), which began airing at 10:15. Fox had a night-long ACM Honors (0.24), which drew little interest. The airing comes a week before the time slot debut of country music drama Monarch. CBS again aired repeats of its Tuesday FBI lineup (0.37/0.31/0.31), experiencing minor gains across the night. The CW came in the rear, as always, with import dramas Leonardo (0.05, -0.02) and Devils (0.04, +0.1).

Finals Update: The Bachelorette (+0.1), America's Got Talent (+0.1) and the repeat of FBI (+0.1) adjusted up. The repeat of Celebrity Family Feud (-0.2) adjusted down.

Tuesday TV Ratings 8/16/22: Leonardo Has Meager Premiere, Password and America’s Got Talent Inch Down, Celebrity Wheel of Fortune Encore Takes Second (UPDATED)

Ratings Analysis: The CW's latest drama 'Leonardo' (0.04) was dead on arrival for its launch and even went below Thursday's abysmal 'Bump' debut (0.06). At 9, 'Devils' (0.03) had no life left in it for its season premiere, going well below the 0.1s it would post in late 2020. Over on NBC, 'America's Got Talent' (0.73, -0.01) was a hundredth shy of its week-ago episode. Game show reboot 'Password' (0.43, -0.03) shed three-hundredths from Wednesday's installment and came in five-hundredths lower than last week's series debut. ABC had a shockingly strong rerun of 'Celebrity Wheel of Fortune' (0.52) that led into encores of 'Generation Gap' (0.37) and 'Celebrity Family Feud' (0.34). CBS's reruns of 'FBI' (0.28), 'FBI: International' (0.26), and 'FBI: Most Wanted' (0.24) trumped Fox's encores of 'So You Think You Can Dance' (0.13) and 'Fantasy Island' (0.12).

Finals Update: Repeats of 'Generation Gap' (+0.1), 'FBI' (+0.1), and 'FBI: International' (+0.1) adjusted up. 'Leonardo' (-0.1) adjusted down.
