TV Ratings Monday, Jan. 24: ‘Ordinary Joe’ Renewed or Cancelled
Talk about sour grapes. In the latest TV show ratings, ABC’s Promised Land premiered to barely 1.9 million total viewers and a 0.2 demo rating, well below the lowest numbers that The Good Doctor ever did (3.6 mil and a 0.4) in the time slot this fall.
TVLine readers gave the Latino family sudser an average grade of “B,” with 84 percent planning to stay tuned. Episode 2 is streaming now on Hulu, but will also air on ABC next Monday night.
Opening ABC’s night, The Bachelor (3.4 mil/0.7) tied Fox’s 9-1-1: Lone Star and CBS’ The Neighborhood for the Monday demo win.

The Live+Same Day numbers reported in our ratings column do not reflect a show’s overall performance, given the increased use of delayed playback via DVR and streaming platforms, plus out-of-home viewing. These numbers (Nielsen fast nationals, unless denoted as finals) instead aim to simply illustrate trends or superlatives.
