July: Top Attention-Grabbing Shows for Broadcast and Cable

August 8

Our passive measurement technology allows us to see which programs are best at capturing eyes-on-screen attention. We looked back at the entire month of July and found that the following primetime first-run programs ranked the highest.

Highlights:

CBS's "Doubt" topped the list for broadcast attention. After being pulled only two episodes into the season back in February, the remaining episodes were released on July 1st.
While it has fewer viewers than its late-night competitors, Comedy Central's "The Daily Show with Trevor Noah" is capturing the attention of its audience. This is the first month that the show has made the list.
Eight of the top ten shows were unscripted, echoing data from June that showed viewer attention leaning towards games and competition.
