The Season 7 premiere delivered 11.76 million viewers within a week of its debut after moving from Fox
“9-1-1” is officially a hit for ABC, one that its new network wants to continue. The first responder drama has been given an early Season 8 renewal just three episodes into its current season.
Since “9-1-1” made the switch from Fox to ABC, the series has been a viewership hit for the network. The Season 7 premiere garnered 11.76 million total viewers for the network within its first week of release, including 4.93 million viewers in live-plus-same-day Nielsen viewership. It also marked ABC’s highest-rated multiplatform telecast in nearly two years when it came to the coveted adults 18-to-49 demographic. The recently acquired series currently stands as the network’s most-watched current show across all platforms this season.
The pivot to ABC has also been beneficial to “9-1-1.” The day after the series debuted on its new network marked its most-streamed day ever on Hulu, according to internal data. “9-1-1” was streamed 1.6 million total hours and has been featured in Hulu’s Top 15 every day since its premiere.
