Monday TV Ratings 7/19/21: All American Finale, The Bachelorette and Hells Kitchen Steady, The Republic of Sarah Ticks Back Up (UPDATED)

Preliminary Analysis: A rather mundane Monday evening saw ABC's 'The Bachelorette' (0.9) predictably capture the top slot. The reality juggernaut was flat with its last outing, as was modest newbie 'Celebrity Dating Game' (0.4) at 10. Over on the the Fox network, 'Hell's Kitchen Young Guns' (0.6), 'HouseBroken' (0.3), and 'Duncanville' (0.2) were all in-line with their usual delivery. NBC's lineup, consisting of 'American Ninja Warrior' (0.5) and 'Small Fortune' (0.3), remained unchanged. On the CW, 'All American' (0.2) bowed out in steady fashion for its season finale. After garnering that dreadful 0.0 rating last week, 'The Republic of Sarah' (0.1) picked up a tenth at 9. CBS offered no new broadcasts, opting instead to air reruns of 'The Neighborhood' (0.4), 'Bob Hearts Abishola' (0.3), 'Young Sheldon' (0.3), 'United States of Al' (0.2), and 'NCIS: Los Angeles' (0.2). The encores were ultimately not much weaker than original programming on the other networks. 

Finals Update: Hell's Kitchen Young Guns (+0.1) and the repeat of NCIS: Los Angeles (+0.1) adjusted up. The Celebrity Dating Game (-0.1) adjusted down.

Monday TV Ratings 7/12/21: The Bachelorette and Hell’s Kitchen Rise, The Republic of Sarah Gets Uglier, HouseBroken and The Celebrity Dating Game Steady After Week Off

Preliminary Analysis: ABC's 'The Bachelorette' (0.9) rose by two-tenths and led into a steady edition of 'The Celebrity Dating Game' (0.4), the latter returning from a two-week break. 'Hell's Kitchen Young Guns' (0.5) picked up a tenth on Fox as 'HouseBroken' (0.3) and 'Duncanville' (0.2) held even yet again. After being preempted for the 'Stanley Cup Finals' last week, 'American Ninja Warrior' (0.5) and 'Small Fortune' (0.3) were flat with their previous installments on NBC. CBS started out solid enough with reruns of 'The Neighborhood' (0.4), 'Bob Hearts Abishola' (0.3), and 'Young Sheldon' (0.3) but tapered off from there with 'United States of Al' (0.2) and 'NCIS: Los Angeles' (0.1). The CW's 'All American' (0.2) tied its last original, but 'The Republic of Sarah' dropped down to its first 0.0 rating. 

Final numbers to come.

Monday TV Ratings 6/28/21: Hell’s Kitchen Narrows Gap with Slipping The Bachelorette, American Ninja Warrior, HouseBroken and Duncanville Stay Steady (UPDATED)

Preliminary Analysis: 'The Bachelorette' (0.7) and 'The Celebrity Dating Game' (0.4) each lost a tenth on ABC, but both programs were still the highest-rated in their respective hours. Fox's 'Hell's Kitchen' (0.6) tied its last installment and came within striking distance of the alphabet network's 'Bachelorette'. 'Housebroken' posted its fifth-straight 0.3 rating while 'Duncanville' mustered up its sixth-straight 0.2. 'American Ninja Warrior' (0.5) and 'Small Fortune' (0.3) were steady with their previous outings on NBC. CBS was entirely in repeat-mode with 'The Neighborhood', 'Bob Hearts Abishola', 'NCIS: New Orleans', and 'Bull'. The CW had stable editions of 'All American' (0.2) and 'The Republic of Sarah' (0.1)

Finals Update: The Bachelorette (+0.1) and the repeat of Bob Hearts Abishola (+0.1) adjusted up.

Monday TV Ratings 6/14/21: The Celebrity Dating Game Has Modest Premiere Behind Dropping Bachelorette, The Republic of Sarah Weak, Hell’s Kitchen Rises (UPDATED)

Preliminary Analysis: Hosted by 'New Girl' star Zooey Deschanel, 'The Celebrity Dating Game' (0.4) debuted in lackluster fashion on ABC. While a 0.4 rating on its own is respectable for the 10pm timeslot, the series lost 50% of its 'Bachelorette' lead-in (0.8) out the gate. Only time will tell if 'Dating Game' can sustain decent ratings but even a one-tenth drop in week two would place it in bleak territory. 'The Bachlorette' (0.8) itself shed a tenth from its premiere, narrowly fending off Fox's 'Hell's Kitchen: Young Guns' (0.7) for the top spot. 'Young Guns' rose a tenth and hit a new high in the process but animated comedies 'Housebroken' (0.3) and 'Duncanville' (0.2) failed to make any gains in the 9pm hour. NBC's struggling 'Small Fortune' (0.3) picked up a tenth behind 'Olympic Swimming Trials' (0.5). The 'Trials' were a tenth higher than the week-ago 'American Ninja Warrior' original. CBS's encores of 'The Neighborhood' (0.4), 'Bob Hearts Abishola' (0.3), 'NCIS: New Orleans' (0.3), and 'Bull' (0.2) all matched their week-ago showings. The CW's 'All American' (0.3) picked up a few hundredths but the series premiere of new drama 'The Republic of Sarah' (0.1) disappointed on arrival. 

Finals Update: The Bachelorette (+0.1), The Celebrity Dating Game (+0.1), and repeats of The Neighborhood (+0.1), Bob Hearts Abishola (+0.1) and Bull (+0.1) adjusted up.
