Season-to-date, Todd is averaging 6.2 million total viewers and a 0.5 demo rating (with Live+7 playback), veritably matching its freshman numbers. Out of the 14 dramas that CBS has aired this TV season, it ranks last in total viewers and bests only CSI: Vegas and the already-renewed NCIS: Sydney in the demo.
As TVLine previously reported, Todd did not plan for its upcoming finale to be a possible series ender. Sources tell us that the episode — which airs immediately after Young Sheldon‘s two-episode farewell on Thursday, May 16 at 9 pm — ends on a huge cliffhanger. And now that the show has been cancelled, it seems unlikely that we’ll get an on-screen resolution.
Meanwhile, CSI: Vegas is averaging 6.2 million total viewers and a 0.5 demo rating (with Live+7 playback), up 8% in audience from its Season 3 numbers and steady in the demo. But out of the 14 dramas that CBS has aired this TV season, it ties for last in total audience, and only bests NCIS: Sydney in the demo.
After airing for its first two seasons on Thursday nights at 10 pm, CSI: Vegas for Season 3 was relocated to the Sunday closer spot, where it leads out of TV’s most-watched drama, Tracker. The final episode of CSI: Vegas airs Sunday, May 19 at 10 pm.
But the fact is that while Todd and CSI: Vegas were steady or up year-over-year, CBS dramas have been overperforming, and TVLine hears that some tough calls are having to be made.
