For CBS’ “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” and “The Late Late Show With James Corden,” the mild Super Bowl boost appears to have already vanished.<\/p>\n
In terms of overnight household and major market adults 18-49 ratings, Tuesday’s episodes were down from Monday’s broadcasts. “Colbert,” moreover, trailed last Tuesday’s episode in both columns.<\/p>\n
Tuesday’s “Colbert” drew a 2.1 overnight household rating in the 56 metered markets and 0.4 adults 18-49 rating in the Top 25 markets. It was a distant second in households (behind NBC’s “Tonight Show,” 2.8) and third in adults 18-49 (behind “Tonight Show,” 0.7, and “Kimmel,” 0.5).<\/p>\n
Monday’s episode posted a 2.7 overnight household rating and a 0.7 adults 18-49 rating. Last Tuesday’s “Colbert,” meanwhile, drew a 2.2 and 0.5, respectively.<\/p>\n
And while one may be inclined to note that last week’s “Colbert” benefited from facing a “Tonight Show” re-run, it is not as if “Colbert” had been drawing dramatically weaker numbers against “Tonight Show” originals. The January 26 episode drew a 1.9\/0.4, while the January 19 broadcast posted the same 2.1\/0.4 as this week’s episode.<\/p>\n
In short, “Colbert” is essentially back to its pre-Super Bowl levels.<\/p>\n
— Tuesday’s “Corden” drew a 1.1 overnight household rating and a 0.2 adults 18-49 rating in the Top 25 markets. It trailed NBC’s “Late Night” (1.3, 0.4) in both columns.<\/p>\n
Monday’s episode posted a 1.3 overnight household rating and a 0.3 major market adults 18-49 rating. Last Tuesday’s episode drew a 1.0 and 0.2.<\/p>\n
To illustrate the absence of a boost, it is worth noting that the Tuesday, January 26 “Corden,” which was an encore, actually beat<\/i> this week’s original in adults 18-49. It drew a 1.0 overnight household rating and a 0.3 major market demo rating.<\/p>\n
Late night show ratings can fluctuate greatly based on guests and lead-in. The key takeaway here, however, is that “The Late Show” and “The Late Late Show” are already back within their typical ranges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":55608,"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":[275,3554,4862],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
