NETWORK FINALS: Note that the WE DAY special must have run without commercials, and thus it wasn’t included in Nielsen’s final ratings. As expected, there were a slew of adjustments for the night, mostly attributable to NFL PRESEASON games. The following shows dropped 0.2 from their preliminary ratings: the reruns of MASTERCHEF and AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR. These shows dropped 0.1: MASTERS OF ILLUSION, DATELINE and the reruns of BH90210, HAWAII 5-0 and BLUE BLOODS.
