Nielsen Social Ratings: April 10 – April 16
Published on April 19th, 2017 | Updated on April 19th, 2017 | By FanFest
Another week, another set of Nielsen Social Ratings.
CBS’ Grammy special tribute to the Bee Gees topped last week’s Social Ratings, scoring over 1 million interactions over the span of the special. Coming in at number was Monday Night Raw while Smackdown came in at number six.
Meanwhile, Saturday Night Live‘s first bi-coastal live episode featuring Jimmy Fallon and Harry Styles, nabbed the number three spot with over 450,000 interactions. Shondaland continues to bring in engagement with Scandal and Grey’s Anatomy landing on the number eight and nine spots, respectively.
As a refresher: the Content Ratings use the total number of social interactions across Facebook and Twitter to rank the top 10 series/specials and sporting events, separately. The chart includes uniques, which are “unique social media accounts that have authored original content related to a linear TV episode or engaged with that content,” and interactions, which are “original social media posts related to a linear TV episode and the engagement with that content.”
