EXCLUSIVE: Live with Kelly and Mark had a festive Fourth of July, coming in as the top daytime talk show of the week.
The show averaged 2.1M viewers that week, anchored by women 25-54, receiving a 0.54 rating with that demographic, according to live+same-day Nielsen data. It didn’t do too shabby with women 18-49 either, managing a 0.24 rating.
It was also the third consecutive week that Live with Kelly and Mark posted growth, up 2% from the week prior.
The holiday episode performed particularly strong, with nearly 2.2M viewers tuning un, up 4% versus the year prior. Nielsen data shows that’s the best July Fourth performance in three years.
In April, Mark Consuelos celebrated his co-hosting anniversary. At a time when daytime talk show ratings have been on a relative decline, Consuelos and his wife Kelly Ripa seem to have found the secret sauce to keeping audiences around. In fact, the duo just won a Daytime Emmy for Best Host.
Season-to-date Live with Kelly and Mark is up 2% in total viewers, hovering around 2.7M.
