Ratings: Weak ‘Paradise Hotel’ Finale Places Fox in Fifth – Behind Telemundo

Fox’s “Paradise Hotel” revival came to an end Thursday with some less-than-heavenly Nielsen numbers, placing the network in fifth among broadcast’s primetime rankings for the evening — behind Spanish-language network Telemundo.

The two-hour “Paradise Hotel” finale settled for a 0.4 rating among adults in the key 18-49 range and 1.3 million total viewers.

Due to the nature of live sports, the below fast-national Nielsen numbers for NBC should be considered subject to significant adjustment. That said, it should only go up.

NBC was first in ratings with a 1.5 rating/8 share in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic and in total viewers with an average of 5.2 million, according to preliminary numbers. That was all Game 5, where the St. Louis Blues took a 3-2 lead in their series against the Boston Bruins.

ABC was second in ratings with a 0.8/4 and in viewers with 4.7 million, airing only game show repeats.
