It may have aired on April 1, but “The Masked Singer” wasn’t fooling around in the ratings that week.
The Fox series dominated the delayed viewing charts in the absence of “This Is Us,” ending up almost a full ratings point ahead of its competitors with a 3.4 among adults 18-49 (slightly above its 3.3 average for the season). That represents a 42% gain from its Live+Same Day score. The show’s strong showing continues the trend of alternative series performing particularly well amid the country’s mass self-isolation.
“Grey’s Anatomy” came a clear second with a 2.5 rating after seven days of delayed viewing (also up on its 2.3 average for the season).
Meanwhile no prizes for guessing which show came out comfortably on top of the viewership table. “NCIS” managed to garner 16.6 million total viewers in delayed viewing, almost a 3 million viewers gain. That’s up more than a million on its average L+7 viewership for the season.
