Boy Band | ABC
Neither “Boy Band” nor “The Gong Show” posted strong ratings Thursday night.
The latter did, however, win the 10PM timeslot. It also built upon its “Boy Band” lead-in among adults 18-49 and overall viewers.
According to fast national data posted by Showbuzz, Thursday’s “Boy Band” averaged a 0.7 adults 18-49 rating and 2.99 million viewers from 8-10PM.
While the episode posted the same 0.7 rating in both hours, it took a slight viewership hit in the second. The 8-9PM portion averaged 3.13 million, while the 9-10PM hour posted a 2.84 million viewers mark.
“Boy Band” led into the premiere of “The Gong Show,” which drew a 0.9 adults 18-49 rating and 3.77 million viewers.
Its numbers are certainly not spectacular, but the show does deserve credit for building on its lead-in (especially since it aired in a weaker timeslot). It also took first place among 10PM network programs in both adults 18-49 and overall viewership.
