Magazines On The Move, Led By ‘ET’

Entertainment magazines were the hottest shows in the first week of summer — the session ending June 27 — with all of the top four scoring double-digit increases.

Entertainment Tonight led the charge, climbing 11% to a 2.0 live-plus-same-day national rating, and leaping 33% among women 25-54, according to Nielsen.

Access Hollywood also surged 33% in the advertiser-coveted demo and racked up a 14% improvement to a 0.8 in households, tying TMZ, which added 14%.

Extra had the biggest percentage increase in ratings, surging 17% to a four-week high 0.7.

Closely watched Jeopardy recovered 4% to a 4.9 with Savannah Guthrie guest hosting for a second go-round. That beat Wheel of Fortune, which faded 2% to a 4.7, but did not threaten syndication leader Family Feud, which picked up 4% to a 5.9.

Daytime programs were faced with preemptions for news of Derek Chauvin’s sentencing on June 25. In addition, some shows were blacked out in Miami on June 24 and 25 for coverage of the Surfside condo collapse.

Judge Judy went into repeats on all five days, dipping 4% to a 4.8, but still crushing the court shows for the 1,292nd consecutive week, dominating daytime and ranking as the third highest show in syndication.

Live with Kelly and Ryan ran roughshod over the talkers, cruising to first place for a seventh straight week with a steady 1.7 and holding 100% of its year-ago ratings.

The top talk shows for the week among women 25-54 were:

• Live with Kelly and Ryan (0.7, -13% from the week before)
• Dr. Phil (0.5, unchanged), tied with Wendy Williams (0.5, unchanged)
• Kelly Clarkson (0.4, unchanged), tied with Ellen DeGeneres (0.4, unchanged) and
• Maury (0.4, unchanged)
