CBS is sweeping the board when it comes to comedy. Thus far this season, so from Sept. 20, 2021 to Jan. 23, 2022, CBS stands head and shoulders above rival broadcast networks with eight of the 10 most-watched comedies, according to Nielsen. “Young Sheldon” remains the reigning comedy champ.
Even the “Big Bang Theory” spinoff’s reruns are beating other networks’ original comedy episodes. Bazinga!
“Young Sheldon” took the No. 1 spot on the list of 34 comedy series, while its repeats placed seventh. That’s still ahead of new episodes of ABC’s two comedies, “The Conners” and “Abbott Elementary,” which took eighth and ninth, respectively.
