This Is Us Gives NBC the TV Season Ratings Win, but CBS Takes Total Viewers

There are still three days left in the 2016-17 TV season but both NBC and CBS have already released their season-ending numbers along with their bragging rights. The peacock network is rocking a solid 2.1 average rating in the key demo forthe 2016-2017 season, with Fox in second with 1.9, CBS in third with 1.8 and ABC bringing up the rear with a 1.6. NBC was also sure to mention that it pulled off this feat without a Super Bowl or Olympics to boost its standing -- something that hasn't been done by any network in over 13 years. CBS can keep its tagline "TV's Most-Watched Network" for another season because, overall, more people tune in to CBS' programming than any of the other broadcast channels. [...] The Voice has locked down all-stars Jennifer Hudson and Kelly Clarkson as judges for Seasons 13 and 14 respectively, practically guaranteeing to see the singing competition continue to dominate its time slot in the fall and spring. Despite ABC's American Idol reboot and a Grey's Anatomyspin-offor Fox's ambitious new Marvel series The Gifted, it doesn't look like anyone has something to put in NBC's way of claiming both prizes next season.
