"BIG BROTHER" PREMIERES WITH A TIME PERIOD WIN IN VIEWERS AND KEY DEMOGRAPHICS

"Big Brother" Improves on Last Summer's Sunday Debut

"Big Brother" Delivers Its Highest Adult 25-54 Rating Ever for a Sunday Premiere

 

The premiere of BIG BROTHER 10 SUNDAY won its time period in viewers and key demographics with gains over last summer's Sunday debut, according to Nielsen live plus same day ratings for July 13.

 

BIG BROTHER 10 SUNDAY (P) premiered with a 4.2/08 in households, 6.29m viewers, 2.7/08 in adults 25-54 and 2.1/07 in adults 18-49.  CBS placed first from 8:00-9:00 PM in households, viewers, adults 25-54 and adults 18-49.  BIG BROTHER was the night's Number One program in adults 25-54, delivering its highest rating ever for a Sunday debut in that demographic.   

 

Compared to last year's BIG BROTHER SUNDAY premiere, CBS was up +11% in households (from 3.8/07), +8% in adults 25-54 (from 2.5/07), even in adults 18-49 and added +440,000 viewers (from 5.85m, +8%).

Big Brother 10’s debut down from the spring and is the series’ lowest-rated debut ever

The first episode of Big Brother 10 was watched by 6.3 million viewers, down just over one million from the 7.4 million who watched last summer’s eighth-season debut.
Perhaps more surprisingly, the show was down about the same amount from last spring’s misguided season, when 7.3 million viewers tuned in to the first episode. Both of the past two seasons, however, debuted on Tuesdays, so perhaps one million people didn’t flee the show, and they’ll find it tonight.
While this was “the lowest-rated season premiere for the show,” it still “[won] the 8 o’clock hour” and had “a roughly 50% demo improvement in the timeslot for CBS vs. last week’s ‘Million Dollar Password,’” Variety reports. That, at least, is good news for CBS
