“Days of our Lives” (1.670 million), “TODAY 3rd Hour” (1.985 million) and “TODAY with Hoda & Jenna” (1.432 million) did not air during the same week last year due to NBC’s coverage of the delayed 2020 Tokyo Olympic games.

• “The Price is Right” aired reruns most of the week except for Monday, July 25, 2022.

Notes: Viewing levels were hitting multi-year highs in 2020 during the initial shutdown of the country due to COVID-19. “The Bold and the Beautiful” and “The Young and the Restless” began their months-long era of classic episodes which continued through late July 2020 and early August 2020, respectively. Comparable 2020 figures for “General Hospital” will return in August as the show aired reruns for most of the summer that year and was not rated (NR) by Nielsen.
