Additionally, NBC has set premiere dates for reality series The Voice and World Of Dance.
‘A.P. Bio’ Off To A Slow Start On NBC
NBC’s new comedy series AP Bio failed to generate significant numbers in the Nielsen overnights during its premiere on Thursday. Airing at 9:30 p.m., it drew a 0.9 rating in adults 18-49 and 3.2 million viewers. That is upslightly from Great News‘ average in the same time slot in Live+Same Day (0.7, 2.9 million). However, it was the only NBC program of the night to draw less than a 1.0 in the demo.
NBC said Monday it has ordered the series, titled A.P. Bio, for next season. It’s the first new 2017-18 comedy announced by the network and stars Glenn Howerton of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
