DWTS Season 33 Finale: Record-Breaking Ratings and a Night to Remember!

ABC's hit dance show, Dancing With the Stars, ended its 33rd season with a bang! The finale drew in a whopping 6. 4 million viewers, the biggest audience the show has seen in four years. This was no easy feat, considering it was up against tough competition like NBC's The Voice. In the crucial 18-49 age group, DWTS scored a 1. 14 rating, its best since 2020. This made it the highest-rated entertainment show in primetime since NBC's This Is Us finale in 2022. The three-hour finale also did exceptionally well with other key groups like adults aged 18-34 and women aged 18-49. Compared to last year's finale, DWTS saw a 16% increase in viewers and a 70% boost in the demo. This is the best demo number for a finale since 2018! NBC's The Voice, a close competitor, had 3. 8 million viewers with a 0. 35 demo rating. Clearly, DWTS stole the show on Tuesday night. However, it's important to note that these ratings only reflect live viewing. With more people using DVRs and streaming services, the overall performance of a show can be very different.
