Ratings: ‘Good Girls’ Has a Bad Season 3 Premiere, Fox’s ‘Duncanville’ Debut Isn’t Much Better
Fox debuted new animated comedy “Duncanville” on Sunday, and it was nothing to write home to Duncanville about. Also disappointing was NBC’s “Good Girls” Season 3 start and the time period premiere of “Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist.”
Yeah, NBC had a real bad evening — but at least half of its schedule was repeats. Plus, last night was part of a holiday weekend.
Performing far better was ABC’s “American Idol” season premiere, which carried the Disney-owned broadcast channel to a first place finish in the key demo. CBS was able to finish first in total-viewer averages, however, besting ABC’s primetime by just 18,000 audience members.
