Given the increased use of delayed playback via DVR and streaming platforms, as well as out-of-home viewing, the Live+Same Day ratings column does not reflect a show's overall performance. Instead, these figures (Nielsen fast nationals, unless denoted as finals) aim to illustrate trends or superlatives. This is not a competition, this is just an exhibition. No wagering.
