In case you haven’t heard, “The Good Doctor” is doing great in TV ratings.
On Monday, the latest episode of the Freddie Highmore medical drama dropped NBC and “The Voice” to second place in the key 18-49 demographic. Combined with “Dancing With the Stars,” ABC easily topped the night in terms of total viewers as well.
ABC was preempted last night in the relatively small Kansas City market for ESPN’s “Monday Night Football.” That makes the Disney-owned broadcaster network’s Nielsen numbers subject to adjustment, though the demo win should hold.
ABC was first in ratings with a 1.7 rating/6 share in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic and in total viewers with an average of 10.3 million, according to preliminary numbers. “DWTS” at 8 p.m. earned a 1.5/5 and 10.1 million viewers.
