The series premiere of NBC’s “Blindspot” cruised to victory (among broadcast networks) in the 10-11PM timeslot.<\/p>\n
Monday’s episode posted an impressive 3.1 adults 18-49 rating with 10.65 million viewers. While not as hot as 2013’s “The Blacklist” premiere in either category, it was an undoubtedly strong showing for the new drama.<\/p>\n
Competitive programming on CBS (“NCIS: Los Angeles”) and ABC (“Castle”) drew markedly weaker numbers. The former posted a 1.2 with 8.00 million viewers; the latter drew a 1.2 with 7.09 million.<\/p>\n
The question now concerns whether “Blindspot” can retain its numbers in the coming weeks. Respectable first season retention – not necessarily the strong premiere number – is what made “The Blacklist” such an impressive performer during the 2013-14 cycle.<\/p>\n
NBC led into “Blindspot” with “The Voice.” While down from last fall’s premiere (3.9, 12.58 million), it still performed admirably. The show averaged a 3.5 with 12.14 million viewers from 8-10PM. The 9-10PM portion, which directly led into “Blindspot,” posted a 3.8 with 13.02 million.<\/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":[4087,210,177],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
