Survivor holds onto top spot: Numeris

Meanwhile, Star academie's finale opens the door for other shows to climb the ratings in Quebec.

Survivor is once again the most-watched show in Canada, according to Numeris data for the week of April 25 to May 1.

The show brought in 1.657 million viewers. Typically a top-five program, the 42nd season of the reality competition show – which features three Canadian contestants, all of whom remain in the competition – has been a particularly strong performer in the ratings with Canadian audiences.

Global drama 9-1-1 was the second-highest rated show, with CTV dramas rounding out the top five: The Rookie, 9-1-1: Lone Star and Blue Bloods.

Regionally, game six of the Toronto Raptors-Philadelphia 76ers series, which ended with the Raptors’ elimination from the NBA playoffs, brought in 607,000 viewers for TSN, and was the top-rated broadcast in Toronto/Hamilton. Game five of the series a few days earlier was the second-highest rated broadcast with 442,000 viewers for Sportsnet.

Hockey games featuring the Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens, Edmonton Oilers, Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks also performed well in their respective home markets as the NHL’s regular season entered its home stretch.

Now that Star academie has wrapped up its latest season, Radio-Canada talk show Tout le monde en parle was able to take over its spot as the top-rated Francophone show, followed by TVA talk show Ça finit bien la semaine in second.
