Nielsen Social Ratings: April 17 – April 23
We’re back with another batch of Nielsen Social Ratings!
It should come as no surprise that the final season premiere of Freeform’s Pretty Little Liars topped the charts, with 549,000 interactions, as fans tuned in to see the beginning of the end and get closer to solving the series-long mystery.
WWE’s Monday Night RAW came in number two with over 390,000 interactions. Meanwhile, Smackdown can be found further down the list at the number eight spot.
In the number three and four spot are both nights of The Voice and Dancing with Stars landed the number seven spot.
Rounding out the week’s Social Ratings was Scandal, where fans were in for a shock at who was latest to get the metaphorical axe (literal golf club), at number nine, and HBO’s latest TV Movie The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks at number ten.
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.”
