The numbers above are calculated using Live+Same Day viewing and DVR playback, defined as 3:00 a.m.-3:00 a.m. and are courtesy of Nielsen. Household ratings are the percentage of TV homes in the U.S. tuned into television, each of which represents 1,250,000 homes as of the 2023-2024 television season.

Note*: Officially, the demo ratings are sorted by the rounded figures released by Nielsen. “NBC News Daily” 2021 and 2020 figures are compared to the performance of “Days of our Lives,” which moved to Peacock exclusively beginning September 12, 2022.

Year-to-year comparisons (2023 vs. 2022) among Households and Total Viewers for most daytime broadcast shows will be unavailable for the foreseeable future due to figures being unavailable to Soap Opera Network during the comparable week last year.

Notable Preemptions/Schedule Changes:

• “The Price is Right” aired a repeat on Tuesday, December 12 for both half hours.
