Update:<\/b> The series premiere of CBS’ “Battle Creek” was very unsuccessful.<\/em><\/p>\n

Sunday’s episode drew a paltry 1.0 adults 18-49 rating with 7.81 million viewers.<\/em><\/p>\n

To its credit, “Battle Creek” did not receive much adults 18-49 help from its Emmy-winning “The Good Wife” lead-in. CBS’ acclaimed series delivered a 1.1 adults 18-49 rating with 8.92 million.<\/em><\/p>\n

The 7.81 million viewership average for “Battle Creek” is more respectable, but it nonetheless ranks as the lowest among CBS’ four Sunday night offerings.<\/em><\/p>\n

Earlier in the night, CBS offered “60 Minutes”(1.6, 13.31 million) and “Madam Secretary” (1.3, 8.92 million).<\/em>
\n=============<\/p>\n

When it comes to the overnights, CBS’ “Battle Creek” ranks as the best-performing of Sunday’s three new shows (ahead of ABC’s “Secrets and Lies” and FOX’s “The Last Man on Earth”).<\/p>\n

But insofar as it did not deliver a monstrous overnight rating — and is not expected to notably skew significantly in the direction of the adults 18-49 demographic — its performance is not one to celebrate.<\/p>\n

Sunday’s episode delivered a 4.8 overnight household rating. Down by 21% from its “The Good Wife” lead-in (6.1), which was down by 20% from its “Madam Secretary” lead-in (7.6, down from the 9.3 for 7PM entry “60 Minutes”), “Battle Creek” decisively ranked as CBS’ lowest-rated program as far as the household numbers go.<\/p>\n

Considering the considerably larger “Secretary” and “Good Wife” overnight numbers do not typically translate into strong adults 18-49 ratings, there is no reason to expect that number to present “Battle Creek” in a markedly more favorable light.<\/p>\n

Adults 18-49 and total viewership data will be made available at 11:15AM ET.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1048,437],"tags":[1692,275,2928,2813],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\nRatings: CBS' "Battle Creek" Disappoints (Updated)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Update: The series premiere of CBS' "Battle Creek" was very unsuccessful.
