The Wrap

Published

“The Bachelor” was Monday’s highest-rated show in the key adults 18-49 demographic, but Fox’s “9-1-1” and “9-1-1: Lone Star” were watched by more overall (read: older) viewers. And so were CBS sitcoms “The Neighborhood” and “Bob Hearts Abishola,” for that matter.

Airing a trio of season finales (“El Domo Del Dinero,” “Todo Por Mi Hija” and “Falsa Identidad”), Telemundo topped Univision (and The CW) in primetime averages, finishing fifth outright on broadcast television.

ABC was first in ratings with a 1.2 rating/7 share in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic, but third in total viewers with an average of 4.8 million, according to preliminary numbers. “The Bachelor” from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. averaged a 1.4/9 and 5.1 million total viewers. At 10, “The Good Doctor” drew a 0.7/4 and 4.2 million viewers.
