The Live+Same Day numbers reported in our ratings column do not reflect a show’s overall performance, given the increased use of delayed playback via DVR and streaming platforms, plus out-of-home viewing. These numbers (Nielsen fast nationals, unless denoted as finals) instead aim to simply illustrate trends or superlatives. Warning: Contents may be hot!

So proud of All American & there’s hope for The CW this year
Let’s go All American!!!
I don’t watch All American but its success is so nice to see. It’s a major case of a series getting time to grow and finding an audience over time.
Maybe the CW will get the hint and start producing more non-superhero shows.
911 pulling in those numbers. In the year 2021. When shows are just low across the board is outstanding!
I love The weakest Link. It’s a perfect showcase for Jane Lynch. I laugh regularly during each episode.
Remember when All American was the lowest rated CW show and was almost canceled for it? Don’t you just love turnarounds?
The CW’s biggest underdog story is really paying off now
This is why networks should not cancel every low rated show, sometimes all it needs is time to find the audience.
Yessss! Love this for All American!!
Never count out The CW. They usually have a decent strategy.
Look like a number of people discovered All American on Netflix or through CW streaming since the pandemic started.
Great news for “All-American.” The real test for “Batwoman” will come this weekend when it’s paired with the season premiere of “Charmed.” The ratings might go up. I’m also looking forward to the new “Walker” & the season premiere of “Legacies” this Thursday as well as the season premieres of “Riverdale” & “Nancy Drew this Wednesday. So lots to look forward too.
Happy for all american, great show
I love both 9-1-1 and All American, however I hate they aired at the same time. Wish they would move one back and hour.
Glad to see All American reach new highs. It’s such a good show. Also happy to see 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Lonestar doing wonderfully.
