“The Voice” unveiled its Season 17 champion on Tuesday and NBC also earned a win — this one in TV ratings among adults 18-49.
Unfortunately, the singing competition posted all-time lows for a fall finale, slipping 24% in the main demo and 13% in total viewers from the comparable episode last year.
Though NBC finished first in the key demo, CBS was No. 1 in terms of total viewers last night.
