Medical drama The Good Doctor had its first top finish of the season.
According to the Numeris Charts for Nov. 26 to Dec. 2, the CTV series had the highest AMA (2.61 million) of all single-night programs in Canada for the week. It brought in 2.61 million viewers, just shot of its previous total of 2.62 million. The previous week, The Good Doctor had been the highest-rated scripted series, coming in behind the Grey Cup broadcast.
The usual top contendors, The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon, were once again off the broadcast schedule for the week.
The second, third and fourth top shows were all Global series, with 9-1-1, Survivor and New Amsterdam all pulling in just under two million viewers. Rounding out the top-five was CTV freshman series The Rookie, with 1.8 million viewers.
The Good Doctor took Anglophone markets Toronto, Edmonton and Calgary. Vancouver favoured a different medical drama, New Amsterdam, although The Good Doctor nestled into the number-two spot. In Montreal, family drama This is Us took the top spot. Montreal is usually known for having an all-CTV top-five, with series such as The Connors, Law and Order and Grey’s Anatomy filling top spots. However, this marks the second week in a row that Global’s New Amsterdam has risen into the top-five for the market.
For the Francophone market, Unité 9 continued its hot streak with 1.43 million average viewers.
