Dun-Dun! ‘SVU’ Was TV’s Most-Watched Live, Linear Program Last Week

After months of loitering in the wings, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit takes first place for the first time in 2023, capturing 1.05% of all live, linear minutes watched on TV from June 26 through July 2, per Inscape. Now that being said, if you combine watch-time for both the Spanish and English language telecasts of the Copa de Oro de la Concacaf 2023 (Concacaf Gold Cup), which rank No. 4 and No. 63, respectively, the soccer championship wins overall with 1.09% viewership share.

Some additional insights about the top programs and networks on TV:

• Elsewhere in sports, MLB games place fifth and PGA Tour golf remains in seventh week-over-week.
• Below Deck, which hasn’t aired on live TV since April, jumps into the ranking at No. 13 (0.53% of watch-time), thanks to multiple marathons on Bravo that ran June 29 through July 2.
• On the network side of things, CBS remains in first place, increasing its watch-time from 6.42% to 6.49% week-over-week. Today, America’s Got Talent and NASCAR Cup Series were three of the programs driving NBC’s watch-time during the week.
• For the first time this year, BET makes the network ranking, arriving at No. 25 with 1.04% of minutes watched. Celebrity Family Feud accounted for nearly a quarter of the network’s watch-time during the week.
