It looks like Superman & Lois had a great performance on The CW, hitting season highs in both total viewers (508K) and demo (0.8), which is impressive for a show in its farewell season. This kind of boost suggests that viewers may be rallying around the series as it winds down, or there could be a specific story arc drawing in more fans.
NBC:
The Voice was the big winner for NBC, drawing 5 million total viewers and maintaining a 0.4 demo rating—steady compared to the prior week. It was the most-watched non-NFL show of the evening.
The SNL Election Special (3.1 million viewers, 0.3 demo) outperformed the recent Brilliant Minds special, showing there’s still strong interest in election-themed content.
ABC:
Despite airing against Monday Night Football (11 million total viewers, 1.9 demo), ABC’s primetime lineup included The Bachelor and a special episode of Jeopardy! but didn’t significantly impact ratings outside of the NFL audience draw.
CBS:
The Neighborhood (4.1 million viewers, 0.4 demo) posted a slight increase in total viewers, keeping its demo rating steady.
Poppa’s House (3.3 million viewers, 0.4 demo) had a drop in total viewers but held steady with its 0.4 demo rating for a third consecutive week.
NCIS (4.8 million viewers, 0.4 demo) continued its streak of holding onto that 0.4 demo rating, despite dipping slightly in total viewers.
NCIS: Origins saw another drop, with 3.5 million viewers and a 0.3 demo rating, continuing a downward trend since its debut.
FOX:
9-1-1: Lone Star dipped in viewership, with 2.7 million total viewers and a 0.2 demo rating. This is a noticeable drop, which could be attributed to competition from other networks and Monday Night Football, but it's still within a typical fluctuation range.
Rescue HI-Surf, a newer show, maintained steady numbers with 1.5 million viewers and a 0.2 demo rating. While it’s not setting the world on fire in terms of viewership, holding steady is a good sign that the show has found its niche, at least for now.
Superman & Lois hitting season highs likely means it benefited from good word-of-mouth and strong fan engagement, with audiences tuning in despite the competition from the NFL and other big networks.
Across the board, networks seem to be holding steady, with NBC’s The Voice and CBS's NCIS franchises continuing to deliver consistent numbers. The special programming—like NBC’s SNL Election Special—also demonstrated there's still a solid appetite for timely, political content ahead of major events.
