The Voice ratings beat American Idol on Monday night (March 27) as it always will, but the gap between the two shows narrowed this week. American Idol was up 1/10th of a point at 1.7, narrowing the margin of victory for The Voice, which fell 3/1oths to 2.0.
The narrower margin comes at a time–during the music-starved Battle rounds–when The Voice ratings generally fall off. American Idol kicked off a new round (Hollywood Week) which generally results in a ratings bump. In any case, it seems as though Idol ratings have settled some. If the numbers hold, ABC will renew.
Also! The Voice ratings tend to adjust up a 10th in the afternoon final update, so watch out for that.
