Live+7 Ratings for Week of Sept. 28: ‘Masked Singer’ Almost Catches Presidential Debate

39Views

October 14, 2020

“The Masked Singer” almost caught the Presidential debate in the Live+7 ratings charts.

For the week of Sept. 28, which was once again light on scripted content, “Masked Singer” came out as the largest non-sports or politics programming of the week. The Fox singing series grew to a 2.6 rating among adults 18-49 after seven days of delayed viewing, topping its 2.4 premiere week score. Coverage of the first (and potentially only given the current circumstances) Presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden placed in second place for ABC and fifth place for NBC. “Masked Singer” stayed ahead of Fox and CBS’ coverage.

“Sunday Night Football” topped the week once again with a 4.6, followed at some distance by the NBA finals at a 3.0.

In the total viewership column, “Masked Singer” was by far the biggest grower, gaining almost 2.5 million viewers to end up with 9.4 million. “Dancing With the Stars” wasn’t too many steps behind, jumping 17% to just over 8 million pairs of eyeballs.
