Nielsen Social Ratings: May 8 – May 14
New week, new top 10!
The Voice took the top spot this week with 690,000 interactions, this first time in quite a bit. Fox’s Miss USA took the number two spot, despite its low TV ratings. Fox also took the number three spot with a new Empire.
Saturday Night Live took the number four spot as Melissa McCarthy hosted for the fifth time, reprised her “Spicey” character and was inducted into the five timers club, courtesy of Steve Martin.
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.”
