Week 34 (May 13-19) Analysis: And now we just have one more week left. Through the final first four night network averages, CBS is in first in HH/total viewers and it is photo finish so far in adults 18-49, with Fox having the slight edge. CBS is a very close second and NBC is immediately right behind them. ABC is fourth and a bit further away, but still close enough to make a run, especially with the Billboard Music Awards tonight. In HH/viewers, CBS has the lead over ABC, with Fox above normal and in third, beating NBC. When the week is done, it's anyone's game in 18-49. I'm thinking Fox will take it and ABC will make it close, especially with a good night tonight. CBS will take total viewers for sure and the others will likely remain in the same position as they are right now through the first four nights. More on that later. As for the previous week, week 33, CBS took home first in adults 18-49 with a 2.02 rating, compared to a 1.86 for second place ABC. Rounding it out was NBC close behind with a 1.80 and Fox in fourth with a 1.71. Among total viewers, it was of course CBS on top easily over second place ABC. NBC was third here as well, while Fox had to settle for fourth in this as well.
