No surprises as to which program finished second: The Big Bang Theory came in at 3.23 million viewers. It was followed by its prequel show Young Sheldon at 2.65 million viewers, while another young prodigy, The Good Doctor, tied with 2.65 million. Rounding out the top-five was Global’s freshman hit, New Amsterdam.
