NBC's THIS IS US Ranks No. 3 Among Primetime Programs on Big 4 in Key Demo

NBC has averaged a 1.0 rating in adults 18-49 and 3.7 million viewers overall for the primetime ratings week of Feb. 6-12, according to "live plus same day" viewing figures from Nielsen Media Research.

NBC was led for the week by Tuesday's "This Is Us," which ranked #3 among primetime programs on ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX in adult 18-49, behind only CBS' "Grammy Awards" and "Big Bang Theory." "This Is Us" finished in the top 10 for the week in every key ratings measure - adults, men and women 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54, plus total viewers - as well as kids 2-11 and teens 12-17.

Other top-rated NBC programs last week included Wednesday's 400th episode of "Law & Order: SVU" (tied for #11 among primetime Big 4 shows), Tuesday's "The Wall" and "Chicago Fire" (tied for #14) and Wednesday's "Chicago P.D." (tied for #26).

Season to date, NBC ranks #1 among ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX in adults 18-49, remaining ahead of FOX despite its boosts from the SUPER BOWL as well as last fall's high-rated seven-game Cubs-Indians World Series. NBC also leads the season in adults 25-54 and ranks #1 in women 18-49, women 25-54 and men 25-54.

NBC is retaining 100% of its year-ago rating this season in adults 18-49 (2.5 vs. 2.5), adults 18-34 (1.7 vs. 1.7) and adults 25-54 (3.1 vs. 3.1) and is up +2% in total viewers (9.0 million vs. 8.8 million).
