CTV’s The Big Bang Theory has continued its undefeated streak as the most-watched single-night TV program of the week. From Dec. 11 to 17, the comedy easily took the highest average-minute audience among Anglophone viewers, grabbing 3.27 million viewers (up from 3.05 million).
With The Good Doctor shelved for the week, Young Sheldon crept into second place with 2.55 million viewers (up from 2.33 million the previous week), joining “old” Sheldon at the top. Young Sheldon was followed by three Global series – Survivor, Bull and NCIS – filling out the top.
The two Sheldon series took the top two spots in every Anglophone market (with Big Bang at #1 everywhere), with the exception of Vancouver. There, Young Sheldon took the fourth spot while Bull landed at #2.
With reality competition series La voix junior concluded for the season, the Quebec market instead turned to Les enfants de la télé, which took an average of 1.4 million viewers. The rest of the top five in the region pulled in fewer than one million viewers, representing a slight decline from the rest of the season.
