Nielsen Social Ratings: January 2 – January 8
Published on January 11th, 2017 | Updated on January 11th, 2017 | By FanFest
Happy New Year! It’s our first Nielsen social ratings of the new year!
The hiatus is slowly winding down and it shows in this week’s ratings. The Golden Globes predictably took the number one spot (with quite a few talked about moments). The Bachelor came in second this week, with 558,000 uniques.
Nashville‘s first official premiere on CMT made the list, scoring the number nine spot while Fox’s Star came in at number eight.
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.”
