Even after delayed viewing, the Oscars was still way ahead of the pack in the ratings for the week of Feb.18.
The prestigious film awards show, which saw a 12% bump in total viewers from the 2018 ceremony, finished with a 7.9 Live+7 rating, up from 7.7 in Live+Same Day, and around 30.5 million total viewers.
While the Oscars red carpet coverage was originally in second place in the Live+Same Day ratings for the week, it was overtaken in Live+7 by three other shows, namely “The Big Bang Theory,” “The Masked Singer” and “This Is Us,” which finished with ratings of 3.8, 3.7 and 3.4, to the red carpet’s 3.2.
The biggest gainers for the week across Live+7 included “The Blacklist,” which was recently renewed for a seventh season on NBC. The James Spader-led show doubled its rating in delayed viewing, increasing 100% from a 0.6 rating to a 1.2, and went from around 4 million to 7 million total viewers.
