In the latest TV show ratings, CBS' Young Sheldon and Ghosts tied for the Thursday demo win, with the former also delivering the night's largest audience.

With NBC's Law & Order shows in rerun mode....

CBS | Young Sheldon (with 6.5 million total viewers and a 0.5 demo rating), Ghosts (5.9 mil/0.5) and So Help Me Todd (4.2 mil/0.3) all dipped, while CSI: Vegas (3.6 mil/0.3) rose to a season high in audience and was steady in the demo.

ABC | Station 19 (3.8 mil/0.4) and Grey's Anatomy (3.5 mil/0.4, read recap) both ticked up in audience while hitting all-time demo lows. Alaska Daily (2.9 mil/0.2) ticked down in both measures.

THE CW | Walker (702K/0.1) added some eyeballs, while Walker Independence (528K/0.1) dropped some.

FOX | Pending adjustment due to some preemptions, Hell's Kitchen (2.1 mil/0.4), Welcome to Flatch (1.2 mil/0.2) and Call Me Kat (1.5 mil/0.2) were all steady in the demo, with the sitcoms both surging to season highs in audience.

Email InsideLine@tvline.com and your question may be answered via Matt's Inside Line.The Live+Same Day numbers reported in our ratings column do not reflect a show'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 denoted as finals) instead aim to simply illustrate trends or superlatives. Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.
