In the latest TV ratings, CBS’ Blue Bloods was again Friday’s most-watched program, while Fox’s Friday Night SmackDown dominated the night in the coveted 18-49 demo.

Ahead of what looks like a double-episode sendoff for Alex Russell’s Jim Street, CBS’ S.W.A.T. this Friday drew a hair over 5 million total viewers and a 0.4 demo rating (per Nielsen finals), steady week-to-week. Fire Country (with 5.25 million total viewers and a 0.4 rating) and Blue Bloods‘ tribute to the late Treat Williams and his Lenny Ross character (5.55 mil/0.4) both ticked up in audience versus last week’s preliminary numbers, with the latter also rising in the demo.

The CW’s Penn & Teller: Fool Us (573K/0.1) and Totally Funny Kids (362K/0.1) were down in viewers, while Totally Funny Animals (429K/0.1) added some.

The Live+Same Day numbers reported in TVLine’s daily-ish ratings column do NOT reflect a television program’s overall performance, given the increased use of delayed playback via DVR and streaming platforms, plus out-of-home viewing. These numbers (Nielsen fast nationals, unless specifically denoted in bold as finals) instead aim to simply illustrate trends or superlatives. Steve Harvey is not a judge or lawyer and merely offers an alternative forum of dispute resolution.
