One of the biggest shows on TV and one squarely on the bubble gained the most from DVR and on-demand viewing in the week of Jan. 30-Feb. 5.
“The Big Bang Theory” had the biggest total growth from its initial rating, adding 1.7 points in adults 18-49 (3.1 to 4.8) and 4.66 million viewers with a week of delayed viewing.
The bubble show, “Agents of SHIELD,” was the percentage-gain leader in both categories. It grew by 150 percent (0.6 to 1.5) in adults 18-49 — leading six shows that at least doubled their initial rating — and 97 percent in viewers.
Here are the Live +7 rankings for Jan. 30-Feb. 5, 2017. The rankings include first-run series and specials only, not repeats.
