: Hawai’i” scored big for CBS on the first Monday of the fall TV season The police procedural, which stars Vanessa Lachey, Yasmine Al-Bustami, Jason Antoon, Noah Mills, Tori Anderson and Kian Talan, was the top show of the 10 p.m. primetime slot, attracting 6.33 million viewers and improving on last year’s premiere of “Bull” by over 40% in the same time period.
The OG “NCIS,” created by Donald P. Bellisario and Don McGill, made a triumphant 19th season return with a premiere that landed the show at the top of primetime at 9 p.m., garnering over 8.15 million viewers and a rating of 0.7 in the key demographic of adults ages 18-49. The military crime drama improved in the time slot by over 91% compared to last year’s Monday night premiere on November 16, 2020. Per NetBase, “NCIS” drove more than 7.
Year-over-year, Fox increased its premiere week Monday performance by approximately 20% in both the key demo and in terms of total average viewership for its Season 5 premiere of “9-1-1” at 8 p.m. . Per a source at the company, Fox is anticipating strong lifts in delayed viewing numbers for “The Big Leap,” given that the first two episodes were made available on Hulu and Fox Now in advance of last night’s premiere.
Additionally, Monday night brought a plethora of season premieres on our screens, including NBC’s “The Voice” featuring pop sensation Ariana Grande as a judge on the singing competition show, ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars” and The CW’s “Roswell, New Mexico.” NBC’s series debut of “Ordinary Joe,” starring James Wolk and Elizabeth Lail, at 10 p.m. landed somewhere in the middle of primetime’s ranks, with a 0.5 key demo rating and 3.81 million viewers.
