A bunch of updates including Monday March 3 Final ratings. It turns out the American Idol Feb 14 premiere earned higher ratings in the key 18-49 demo than The Voice March 1 premiere.

****

Monday preliminary ratings for March 1 have NBC’s The Voice premiere, and ABC’s The Bachelor Women Tell All special tying in the key 18-49 demo with a 1.1 rating. However, The Voice earned a much bigger overall audience, with 7.7 million viewers, vs The Bachelor’s 4.5 million overall viewers.

The Voice is down just a bit from its fall premiere (1.1 in the demo 8.2 million viewers overall). And for those of you who compare and contrast singing shows, American Idol also earned a 1.1 for its Feb 14 debut, but fell short compared to The Voice in overall audience numbers, with a 6.7 million viewers.
