ABC’s The Bachelorette rang the bell with advertiser-prized 18-to-49-year-olds while Fox4’s 9 p.m. local newscast drew Monday’s biggest overall crowd.

Airing from 7 to 9 p.m., The Bachelorette sucked in 87,377 viewers of the 18-to-49 persuasion. Fox4’s news then scored with 192,297 total viewers to win that crown.

Over on AMC, the 8 p.m. premiere of Dietland (with back-to-back one-hour episodes) was reduced to crumbs with just 14,244 total viewers and a sub-measly 1,872 within the 18-to-49 realm.

Here are Monday’s four-way local news derby results.

TEGNA8 swept the 10 p.m. competitions with wins in total viewers and among 25-to-54-year-olds (main advertiser target audience for news programming).

Fox4 likewise ran the table at 6 a.m. and had the most 25-to-54-year-olds at 5 p.m. NBC5 ranked first in total viewers at that hour.

The Peacock and TEGNA8 shared the total viewers golds at 6 p.m., with NBC5 winning outright in the 25-to-54 demographic.
